slaves, tell me about 50 Shades of Grey

He does ask her about her menstrual cycle at one point, if I recall. And yanks out her tampon so he can fuck her. And makes her a doctor appointment so she can get on the pill.

Pretty much she's his big girl kitty cat.

No wonder almost 80% (from what I've seen) of the women on Fetlife have usernames that involve "Kitty" or "Kitten"

There are a couple of rabbits

And a couple of 'pig sluts'

I should change my username on FL to "Daddy's Sloth" or something. Some animal that isn't fluffy and cute.

power dynamic shit is as old as time iirc
(but i don't believe anything in particular is inherent in women or men, though, at least not wholeheartedly)

you should read this book i'm reading -- http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/13353151-the-origins-of-sex
i think you would enjoy

xp Pangolin.

Daddy's Rock Hyrax

Someone right now is writing a novel that features Abraham Lincoln and Jane Austen in a BDSM relationship, with zombies. Or vampires.

"Daddy's Naked Mole Rat" is probably a little too close to home

As cute as they get, and they get a lot uglier:

mini review from one of the mums on my facecrook network :

It's mills and boon with porn in
Utter shite
But I'm on book two !

which, despite having not read a word, sounds about right ..

this is a short description of the book linked upthread if you don't want to click on it for some weird reason

n The Origins of Sex, Faramerz Dabhoiwala provides a landmark history, one that will revolutionize our understanding of the origins of sexuality in modern Western culture. For millennia, sex had been strictly regulated by the Church, the state, and society, who vigorously and brutally attempted to punish any sex outside of marriage. But by 1800, everything had changed. Drawing on vast research--from canon law to court cases, from novels to pornography, not to mention the diaries and letters of people great and ordinary--Dabhoiwala shows how this dramatic change came about, tracing the interplay of intellectual trends, religious and cultural shifts, and politics and demographics. The Enlightenment led to the presumption that sex was a private matter; that morality could not be imposed; that men, not women, were the more lustful gender. Moreover, the rise of cities eroded community-based moral policing, and religious divisions undermined both church authority and fear of divine punishment. Sex became a central topic in poetry, drama, and fiction; diarists such as Samuel Pepys obsessed over it. In the 1700s, it became possible for a Church of Scotland leader to commend complete sexual liberty for both men and women. Arguing that the sexual revolution that really counted occurred long before the cultural movement of the 1960s, Dabhoiwala offers readers an engaging and wholly original look at the Western world's relationship to sex.

For some reason I'm thinking LL's book there is probably sexier in its intellectual stimulation and reading quality than this 50 Shades crap

For some reason? How about for all the reasons.

I highly recommend it to anyone interested in the topic of human sexuality in UK/western world. The stuff about prostitution in particular has been especially illuminating imo. Do not expect a full global experience though.

...that'll cost you an extra two hundred.

pages? at least.

Same as in town, then?

the words 'smile' and 'smiles' appear 27 times in the first 2 chapters (9 pages). FYI said chapters are available here free (legally)

Did not think it would have penetrated all the way to Alberta

lol @ yr choice of words, kingfish

I was on the train the other day and a very annoying loud woman was on the phone to a friend (why some women feel a desperate need to talk to their girlfriends at 8am on the train at great length, every morning, I have no idea but thats an aside...) anyway out of nowhere shes all "oh and OMIGAWD, have you heard about that 50 shades of grey book, OMIGAWD, I hear its like, full on PORN, like, it is FULL ON, I kind of want to read it, you know? Like no really, it is FULL ON".

(this is Aus bogan slang for "it is livelier than your usual Mills and Boon, I assure you").

This left me kind of bemused. Is the fact it has porn at all, some kind of selling point? Like, do these women find this shocking/surprising, like it is a new thing that you can - omigawd - BUY BOOKS WITH REALLY RUDE STUFF IN.

True story. I was in a bookstore near the University of Chicago today (57th Street Books, best bookstore on Earth), and an older African-American lady came into the store and asked for 50 Years of Grey.

The "Fifty Shades" erotic trilogy is expected to hit the 20 million-sales mark in the U.S. this week, making it one of the fastest-selling book series in recent memory.

....

For much of the spring, the trilogy's author, E. L. James, accounted for one in five adult-fiction physical books sold in the U.S., according to Nielsen BookScan, which tracks 75% of U.S. book retail sales.

yo do any of you guys feel like you'd want to hook up with e.l. james just to see what it would be like
like, when she tried to send you to 7-11 to get some kool whip and you just straight up lay it down and bring out all sorts of REAL WORLD freaky shit that she's clearly never experienced since she's pushing these "like a bag of sand"-level descriptions of sex
you guys know what i mean?

or like when you play the "would you?" game at work with customers and you always WOULD with some sort of e.l. james-lookin broad because you'd make her feel like a woman goddamnit bring your absolute A game to her pussy and show her what it's all about

the only thing i was feeling was the part where he rips the tampon out

i be doing that shit too. put a towel down.

my point is basically: i'd lick her ass, whatever, make her feel dirty. she'd never write about some swiss millionaire putting apple butter in her pussy or whatever the fuck this book is about.

In this way, you speak for us all.

speaking for myself, just because she wrote a dumb book about a stern man doesn't mean she deserves to be sexually humiliated by a stern fan.

http://i937.photobucket.com/albums/ad215/jiaoqu/insadaaaa.gif

i meant the opposite. it'd be some earthy beautiful no-shower-beforehand no props lovemaking going down. no humiliation.

although unfortunately that seems to be what she's into based on this book.

This is kinda brilliant.

This was going round a few days ago, not sure which came first: https://twitter.com/#!/search/irishshadesofgrey

Saw a bro reading the paperback on the subway this morning.

Also have noticed a few not very handsome wall street types wearing grey ties like the one on the cover lately.

I am imagining them humming this under their breath:

I love that somehow the Irish ones are all about being prim and the glasgow ones are all about being ugly and/or gross.

Marenghi got there first (opening 30 seconds or so)

thank you for reminding me of where there's a whip theres a way abbs

You know she's writing a second series about Grey's submissive son. It's called "I Whip My Heir"

oh dude

that was NICE :D

This book is seriously for people who don't know how to "clear recent history".

my mom is reading this ;_;

lol

I'm highly amused that these stupid tomes that I've had to walk past displays of in airports have infected even my home.

glad enders game is finally selling more than the art of fielding

whats the difference?

My friend has been relating the plot (via SMS) to me. This is just beyond ridiculous.

S&M&S amirite?

The Sisters Brothers is actually pretty good

JFC every time I see someone on the subway with a kindle, male or female, I look over their shoulder and see "Oh jeez!"
