This work is in the public domain: Franz von Bayros. Sweet Snail circa 1910
Can you tell what naughtiness someone's been watching in their spare time from what they like to read or, if they're an author, from what they write?
I've seen a comment recently where exactly that was declared. That many erotic scenes are written to appeal to readers who have seen so much porn that they automatically connect the written scene with the visual ones in their memory bank.
So apparently...ahem...if you love details in those sex scenes you read or write, it's all due to the porn you watch.
Tut tut. No more clits or rampant cocks for you, dear readers, we must draw back and watch from afar.
I tend to have a more broad-minded attitude here, and I actually, strangely, believe that different people get aroused by different things, and that different people actually have their own minds that aren't clones of this person who disdains porn as being non-erotic.
Though I do agree that porn can be so overly manufactured that it sometimes looks like all the participants are only going through the motions for the camera. A bit of true lust and mutual attraction goes a long way toward making videos truly erotic.
I'm curious as to whether others think most sex scenes in books are written to cater to people who watch too much porn.
