"Yet I find, yet I find repeating in my head...if I can't be my own...I'd feel better dead." Nutshell, Alice in Chains

What is the most erotic text you have ever read?

October 14th 2006 23:18
From your perspective as a writer, or just as a man or woman, (I think that covers everyone who may happen upon this post, don't you?)-what is the single most erotic thing you have ever read? Everything counts...please include as much of the text as you can or paraphrase, I don't care. I am curious...

Does the lyrical quality of a particular author's written 'voice' excite you? Does it make you feel the passionate heat of a lover's body? Does it make you recall that first kiss? The first glimpse of their skin? The first touch of their tongue?


I have shared about my erotic reactions in my previous post, 'Orgasms of the Mind...My Tribute to...'. If you are curious, I suggest you visit that post. I am curious about other published works that may make you feel similiarly. Tell me about it... Is it an author? Hmmm..perhaps you react more strongly to art hanging in a museum...no matter what the source, please share your experience...its just the two of us. I won't tell anyone...*wink*

Voices,

Do you honestly believe I'm going to place my private correspondence on your blog?

(goes off to see which one was the most erotic).

Homer,
*searching through my own correspondence...*

I would have to choose,

Homer: "You have the talent."

That's supreme erotica to a writer, wouldn't you agree? People are going to talk...

Homer (trying to pretend he was searching through his correspondence all the time, rather than going outside to have a cigarette) Yeah still looking.

How am I going to find it if you keep distracting me with your posts?

Yes, I do agree that a statement like that is erotic (and exotic, as in, it's rare to receive genuine encouragement, or a genuine compliment nowadays, most of them smack of Carnegie-ish 'How To WIn Friends and Influence People' speak) ... You Americans have got a lot to answer for ...

In terms of that type of erotica, probably what my writing teacher said to me at my book launch:

If you leave your brain behind when you read this book, Homer will go and find it for you.

But as to real erotica (because I'd never think of sleeping with him, regardless of what compliments he gave me) ... I'll have to find something written by a female ...

Hmmm ?

Homer goes off again ...

Hello Voices

I'm still discovering her,I've only read a couple of her books but I think it's the way that she writes with an unusual depth of analysis and frankness of description. Her poetic style is beautiful and resonating.

Yes, Artists and Models by Anais Nin! That's a pretty erotic short story if you want to get a taste of what she writes about.

Also, my lecturer Nike Bourke writes some pretty erotic lesbian scenes.


My girlfriend's writing is pretty hardcore too.

Hey, my tongue was lodged in my cheek ...
Still, I learnt valuable lessons in sexual education from the pages of my father's Penthouse forum as a young adolescent.
Still, the best erotic text? Arguable.
One of the best sex scenes I read was in a sf novel called Altered Carbon where a woman in a genetically engineered body secreted pure amphetamine in her bodily fluids, thus having sex was an intense high indeed!

Brenton,
I do like reading other people's posts. It brings to mind those naughty sex shops where you put a quarter in and watch a woman do the most mundane or sexual things. You didn't know what you were going to get...same with writing.

Writers post their comments, some sexy, some not in this little private area...we insert a quarter or click on the link and we are in the private room...watching. Sometimes what we see in our voyeuristic moment is something supremely erotic...

OK, I'll bite.

Anais Nin disappointed me because she writes like a man. Yes, I own 'Delta of Venus' but I can't help but to get irratated rather than piqued. I understand she was writing in a seriously male-dominated world and do take it in context, but it still reads like a cheesy Penthouse.

Best erotica I read? OK, now this is weird... but it was 'Bitten' by Kelly Armstrong. Yes, a werewolf story but sex scenes which caused me to bite my lip and stalk my husband.

I wrote to the author and she had a good chuckle over my positive feedback, said a lot of women were telling here that.

Go figure. Woof!

LaurenD,
*cruising Amazon.com as we speak*. I know what you mean...there is nothing like a good read, even more so for me than a good visual unless Brad Pitt is involved to make me say..."Honeyyyy..."

I do like the dark gothic thing...I have mentioned that a time or two...and Vampires are supremely erotic to me. Again, though you have the eternity factor, which greatly appeals to me...but lets face it...biting is hot..

Come back, loved your response...
Voices~

Comment by LaurenD

October 16th 2006 01:58
In that case, Voices, you're gonna love 'Bitten.' I found it quite by accident and it was the answer to my erotic prayers.

I've always had a soft spot for the werewolf movies but they can get a bit cliche. 'Bitten' is a new spin with a viviacious female protagonist who loves the woods at night as much as I do.

Speaking of hotties in the darker genres, Cillian Murphy in '28 Days Later' reminded me of what a girl really needs in a crisis. When the rage-infected monkeys are loose in London, CM with a baseball bat and a brogue is the only salvation!

LaurenD,
You know, I just realized that Brad Pitt was in that vampire movie, "Interview with a Vampire." I forgot all about that movie. Of course, now I will have to decide if I want to watch anything with Tom Cruise in it...I mean, really...I am not sure what would be worse, being alone in a room with Tom Cruise, as a Scientologist or being eaten alive by Brad Pitt...hmmm...well, when you put it like that..or rather I put it like that, I am going to take the latter...anyday.

You mentioned enjoying being in the woods at night. Is there something particularly erotic about that experience for you? It would only be erotic to me if I were not alone...I am a horrible chicken..

October 16th 2006 02:13
OK, now I can't belive I'm saying this in your public confessional, but there is something postively exhiliarating about taking my top off out in the woods at night. If you can't get to the woods, the backyard, in the dark, when the neighbors have gone to bed.

With all the focus on women's bosoms these days, we get the short end of the stick. We have to keep the girls covered. Not fair. Moonbathing is food for the soul. Vitamin Mmmmm!

I have to remind myself that I can't be burned at the stake for saying all of this....

LaurenD,
*gathering sticks and other fire making paraphenalia*..no no, of course you can't be burned at the stake...

Actually, I know what you mean...It reminds me of a novel I read by Elizabeth Berg. Not erotic but something very pure and empowering about it. In this scene, she describes the journey a woman begins once she is left with an empty nest and a marriage she is no longer sure that she needs or wants. There is a beach scene very similiar, although a little more involved, as what you are describing. I must walk around naked in my yard tonight...you may have started something in America.

If I get thrown out of the country, can I seek refuge in Australia?

Elizabeth Berg. Excellent, I'll have a look for it.

Oooh, you're in the States? What part? I'm originally from Rhode Island.

And of course you can seek refuge in Australia. It's jsut starting to get into summer now, so your timing is perfect.

I'm not going to post much at all on what has obviously turned into a manic-lesbo-hetro-suppressionist-regressionist-fantasy site blog ...

I'm too busy imagining myself as a non-blood sucking vampire (the type that extracts the juices from somewhere else) ... alone with two absolute nympho bloggers in a forest ...

a place dripping with milk and honey ...

Who needs to even think about Brad Pitt or Tom Cruise in moments like this ...

They can have their celluloid dreams ...

Mine are better than celluloid ... and contain very little cellulose ...

Everyone go see her blog after, of course, you are done with mine. :c)

All of Elizabeth Berg's books are wonderful. You can't go wrong with any of them. The voice is so intimate its like having a chat with an old friend...

Hey thanks, Voices. I appreciate the plug!

Australia is a good spot, they have a little secret down here and it's got beaches, rainforests, mountains. But it's ahndy to know that they mean flip-flops when they mean thongs.

I can collect the sticks. I only wanted you to gather them so I could study your outline as you bend down to pick them up …

How can I suggest a way for you to be kicked out of the US when the American government invite people into the country to do their dirty work?

The US has no deportation policy. If you don’t agree with their policies you disappear.

I suggest you get a ‘desire-to-fornicate-with-an-Aussie-male’ visa. If they don’t exist in the US, lobby for one. Then come over here and visit me on the aforementioned visa. If that process is tied up in litigation and takes too long, just come over here on a tourist visa, and stay with me forever as an illegal immigrant.

As to being on top of you. I wish.

My mind is not in the gutter (unless that was an allegorical, metaphorical reference to your body parts) …

Take notes …

Come …

I am intrigued by the visa...will look into it.

As for the shared blog, I am not sure at all that people can handle the heat. Perhaps we should do a survey. How would that work, exactly? I mean, How would we pose that question?

American version:
Bloggers, do you wanna see girls gone wild? Well, you can't, its copyrighted...but how about a little international scandal? That's right...BLOGGERS GONE OUTBACK... Ohhh yeah...the heat, the sensuality...and everyone is wearing thongs.. Its the hottest thing to hit Orble! If you want this blog, call 1999-HOT SEXX

The most erotic text I ever had the honor of reading came from my wife in the way of a note a couple years back. It read,

"Hon I went to the grocery store to pickup some beer for you. I know you're not out, but what I have in mind tonight may require more than what is normal." c ya soon!

That worked!

Voices,

The nursery rhyme, Jack and Jill is the most erotic text I ever read.

The first line stirred something in my loins: Just the fact that Jack and Jill went up the hill without parental supervision was an indication this was not only going to be erotic, this was going to be full-on child porn, had me reaching for the tissues.

And the metaphors in the text! To fill a pale? Well, we all know Jack had no intention of filling a pale ...

I can't write any more ... Just thinking about what happened on top of that hill is enough (without even having the picture book in front of me) ...

I'm going to either have a cold shower, or flick through Hustler to get those images out of my mind ....

I think porn can count.
It's subjective isn't it?

Comment by The Voices in my Head

October 17th 2006 11:29
Luke,
With all due respect here, the following:

Woman to hunky beefcake plumber: "So, you're gonna clean my pipes??" as she sucks on lollipop.

Man: "uhhh...yeah...AND HOW and THIS is what Im gonna use to do it" *flashes just the tool for the job*

Woman already on knees: "oooohhhhhh!!!"

is porn...not erotica. There is a difference. I'm not a prude, but certain things are porn, which is not sexy and certain things are erotic...imagine someone writing a prose filled but intensely sexual note to you...would that not get your mind fleeing in a thousand directions that gradually narrows to the one inevitable? Much sexier than fleeing in one general direction from the start.

Thats just my opinion though, but don't blame me, Luke, if you get slapped rather than laid for trying to give your woman porn to induce the mood.

(psssst...I will be back later, I want to show you the definitions of artistic and literary...) *smile*

It occurs that I am not letting you have your opinion. I apologize...let's just say this...I don't find porn erotic, at all. That was my point. I like things that make me gasp, feel a palpable heat, things that make me forget to breathe properly, that make me break into a glistening sweat. I want to be aroused for hours after I read something or see it. I like to chase pleasure and have it chase me...I want to spend hours thinking about what I have read and eventually, eventually have it take me there...

That was all I was trying to say,

It occurs to me that I am not letting you in on a little secret. There is no way I will apologise because that is not in my nature. Let’s just say this … I don’t find porn erotic at all. I find it very slutty. (Okay, so it’s not like slutty sluts haven’t attracted me before but I have moved beyond sluts and now go for the post-slut type) … I like women who gasp .. (ok, and gag) … women who make me hot, women who make me forget what the hell I’m doing on Voices blog site posting this … women who make me sweat when they’re another continent away … I want a woman to arouse me for weeks, months, decades, eons even … after I read just one word from them … Stuff chasing women though … they can chase me … I’m worth it … (puffs his chest out … then looks in the mirror and thinks … I really shouldn’t have written that) … Where the stuff was I? .. Oh that’s right … I just want to buy a bed that Voices and I can share … (did I really write that?) … Seems like it .. Oh well .. And so it goes as Kurt Vonnegut Jr would write …

I think you guys are making an assumption here... that the 'porn' I'm talking about must automatically be the stereotypical porn of no plotlines, plastic tits and veiny wangs.

porn can refer to all things pornographic... 'pornographic' might not sound as nice as 'erotic', but they boil down to being basically the same thing... 'erotic' is just good spin-doctoring by people who don't like the word 'porn'.

I don't dig that kind of porn.
Old school 'pornos' with hilarious storylines are awesome.
Amateur 'porn' can be great too.

Voices,

Erotica does not need to be analysed and dissected to death with a complex approach.

Erotica is simply you and I communicating with each other ...

That's my definition of erotica ...

When they create a word that defines you and I being physically together, pornography will seem like a word to describe innocuous children's literature ...

Homer ...

PS: Don't put your real name on here Jane ... that would be as silly as if I told everyone my real name was John...

I like this one:

"How beautiful and how pleasant you are, love, for delights!

This, your stature, is like a palm tree, your breasts like its fruit.

I said, "I will climb up into the palm tree. I will take hold of its fruit." Let your breasts be like clusters of the vine, the smell of your breath like apples,

Your mouth like the best wine, that goes down smoothly for my beloved, gliding through the lips of those who are asleep."

Yeah, it is from "Song of Solomon"...the funny thing is, if you read that passage in front of some of the Christian fundamentalist churches and they didn't recognize it was from the Bible, they'd throw you out on your ear for reading such "filth"...that's how far some of the churches have fallen )-:

I find the older classic writers to be the most erotic - Thomas Hardy is a good example. They paint the picture and then allow you create your own erotica by finishing the scene yourself. I also find the way that they describe sex by using the natural world around them very sensual. It takes away the"cheap" aspect that is so common of todays erotica.

JakeDanger,
The Song of Solomon is a wonderful selection. It is easy to forget that many passages in the Bible are very erotic and/or poetically written.

It is a shame that the most amazing text ever written has been used by many to degrade and tear down others. What do you suppose God thinks of that? Hmmm, a question for a different blog, but still...

I do not recommend reading the Bible in the same context as you would a novel. To do so may cause you to miss certain insights, which may be helpful to you. However, if you will not read it any other way, then do so. It is an amazing work, whether you believe in it's message, or not.

Thank you again,
Come back,

Ash,
I could not agree more.

Not that I am a prude, but I really don't like out and out references to sexual acts...I'm young, so don't accuse me of being old-fashioned! (Not that you would...)

I just think that our language has deteriorated to the point that romance and the elegance of romance has died. Give me a beautifully worded poem, such as Wordophilia's 'Second Baptism' any day over Penthouse Forum. (Have you read it? It's causing quite a stir on Orble...)

Do you have a particular text in mind that stands out?

Thank you for your comments.

Voices,

There is nothing wrong with being old-fashioned - I pride myself on it. There is something romantic about old-fashioned values and the morals and ideals that made up the world a few decades ago. I myself am not into this new world of porn, I feel that it makes something that is so pure into something cheap and 'everyday'. I haven`t checked out the Penthouse Forum, will have to see what the stir is all about. Perhaps that is the reasoning behind all of this - to create a stir and to get tongues wagging. What`s the point of saying something of no one is going to talk about it? I just think they need to look at ways of talking about it, without making it cheap.
I enjoy reading Wordophilia`s work so will be sure to look out for that one

Ash

PS I have a text in mind but will have to go in search of it so that I can get the quotes right - I will be back on this thought though.

Ash,
You misunderstood...please do not go in search of Penthouse Forum on my behalf...I was saying I would rather read Wordophilia's Second Baptism than to read Penthouse Forum. I think my word arrangement confused you, my apologies.

Do come back with those quotes, you have me curious.

oh do be careful of the power lines...would hate to hear that your Doodle Doo, as JC calls it, to be caught up in them, if it is as endowed as JC believes it to be...which raises another question...why does he care? Hmmmm...yes, well, anyways, be careful...there is a rather large trampoline in my back yard, do be careful of it...wouldnt want you to be bounced back on to the plane after that much effort and everything.

Can't wait to see you,

Erotic text? Naked pics of a very happy man....

Adrienne,
Well, to each their own, I suppose. That doesn't seem as erotic as post climactic...but then again, that may be a very appealing thought to some...

I love this post just for the variety of responses. It's intriguing to see how different people respond in that way.

Thanks for commenting and do come back...

some 70's erotica I read on vacation as a teenager in some remote tropical hotel library!

MatthewB,
I can just picture it...the backward glances over the shoulder to make sure no one would catch you reading it, the excitement in the gut over the images playing in your mind. Quietly closing the book and putting it back precisely where you found it, with no one the wiser about the matter you were then wiser about... *smile*

Thank you for sharing that...

What a fun post! In regards to erotic reading material, I would have to say that a short story I read a few months back, on another site, "Stories Unlimited", called "An Unexpected Visit", was the most erotic I've ever read. This would be with the exception of a letter written to me by a man I was seeing about 7 yrs. ago, who lived in South Carolina.
Recently, during late night programs on FOX, I have been seeing commercial for Blueray, that features this couple getting ready for a concert. LSS, they don't go to the concert after all, & with the quick glimpses, & strokes here & there, they accomplish a rather erotic message for Blueray. But of course, if out & out porn is your turn on, u won't find much erotica in this. Personally, I don't find much erotica in porn.

Moonbeam,
I agree, porn and erotica are two very different things. Porn is akin to a picturebook for the illiterate, in my opinion.

Erotica, chaste or not, should leave enough to the imagination so that you may draw your own private illustrations, when the mood strikes. *wink*

70's erotica really had something atmospheric going on, the line between it and 70's porn was always blurry. But no one needs to talk about porn. It is what it is. Which is what makes erotica so attractive, it's beyond porn, taking sex to another level. And erotica almost serves a purpose as well. Some art takes erotica to another level. I think what Luke was saying is erotica is just porn with poetry. But eros... that something else altogether.

One quote I love is: What is the difference between erotica and porn? Erotica is what I watch. Porn is what you watch... pervert.

I think the thing erotica has going for it is an awesome subtlty. Out of watching someone stripping, and someone just naked, I know which one I'd consider more erotic.

Brenton,
LOVE that quote.

I will preface what I am about to say with this..lol...a disclaimer of sorts. I am straight, I am married and I have children with the man.

However, there is something very erotic and beautiful about watching a woman strip. *shrug* Women are beautiful. I can't watch a man do it. It seems effeminate to me and a little to self-assured. I would also feel like I was being unfaithful. I am a massive weirdo. I have never claimed otherwise!
