X-Is-Review: yes


I've decided to do something a little different for this edition of the 
Reviews, which follows hot on the heels of the last. Usually I spent three 
or four hours a week wading through the newsgroups, picking out 
stories that look interesting and unusual. But this time, I selected them 
more or less at random, concentrating on what was posted in the past two 
days.

Judge for yourself what this says about the average quality of sex stories.


Lady Sarah's Erotic Fantasy [C]
When posted: 9/13/97

Author: Lady Sarah
Posted by: Paul <Paul@nospam.azeroth.demon.co.uk>

Boy was this story dumb. One of the dumbest I've seen in a while, 
rivaling the Spice Girls story I did a review on a while back. It begins by 
stating "My name is Lady Sarah, I would like to welcome you to my secret 
dairy of erotic fantasy, that exist purely for my pleasure alone." Woah! A 
secret "dairy." I'll take two gallons of buttermilk, please. 

Lady Sarah takes a shower and masturbates with her fingers in her 
pussy. She's also rather detached from herself, commenting on "the 
creamy white flesh" and "the pointed pleasure button" of her body...At  
least I think the flesh and pleasure button were hers, as no other women 
were in the shower stall with her. After that, "Closing my eyes, I sagged 
against the cold glass of the cubical, subcoming to my own pleasure." I 
believe she means "succumbing" here, though if she's a sub, and is 
currently coming, this strange word could make sense.

But alas, her reverie is broken when Alex, the brother-in-law with the 
manly torso, climbs into the shower with her. He says, "Don't try and act 
coy with me Sarah.  I know the sort of woman you are, you want me as 
much as I lust over that slender body of yours" in stilted romance novel 
speech. Making the most of an embarrassing situation, Lady Sarah sucks 
his cock. He responds, " 'God yes, suck it you bitch.'  He gasped from 
above, then.  'I'm going to come.  I want to shower it all over you face 
and tits.'  until his showered my face and tits with his hot, creamy 
spunk." After that he fucks her against the glass wall of the showerstall. 
Miraculously, they aren't sliced n' diced when it shatters under the 
strain of two copulating bodies.

Compared to "The Storyteller" which I posted in my previous Reviews, 
and which was also a female masturbation fantasy, this story falls flat. 
You can tell a woman didn't write it, chiefly by the way Lady Sarah 
immediately latches onto the guy's cock and the heroic description of 
sperm as "hot creamy spunk" rather than the nondescript, snotlike fluid 
it actually is. Yeah, yeah, this is porn, we have to ignore certain laws of 
nature. But a neutral word like "cum" or "semen" would sound a lot less 
ridiculous. Oh, and then there's that tender, romantic "bitch."

Although it stinks, I was actually pretty entertained by the story. It's so 
bad, it's good. And it was fun to write this review, too.


Story: First Session (Part 1) (revised) [C+]

This posting crossed a variety of genres: BDSM, medical exam, enema, and 
chubby. I can't really call it a story. It's more of a private fantasy told
in 
annoying second person voice ("With clean, firm hands I begin your 
gynecological exam") to you-the-victim, this imaginary person being a 
"Queen-sized" woman the narrator's met through email and talked into 
playing dom-sub/doctor games with him in his motel room.

Though it doesn't succeed as a story, I found the fantasy interesting for 
the insight it gives into the mind of someone who is turned on by 
playing kinky games with large-sized women. Sort of like reading an X-
rated confession.

This one was another female masturbation fantasy, but told from the 
man's point of view this time, also in that #&$*%#&@!!! second person 
voice. Now, there's nothing inherently wrong with second person voice. 
It's just that the tone forces the reader to play-act the role of the unseen,

nameless "you" when they'd rather be reading along as readers usually 
like to do. 

That said, this story wasn't bad, and reading it was like reading a 
combination of the previous two stories. The narrator is in his home 
office reading his woman's sexy stories and masturbating when he 
barges in on her. The sight pleases her, and it pleases her even more to 
diddle herself for him. Then she asks him to come on her tits.

Reality check here. #1. I don't get why any woman would go bonkers for 
a man's cum on her tits. Jeez, you'd get a better effect from a can of 
whipped cream. #2. If a couple has been sexually intimate with each 
other, why are they so embarrassed about masturbating in front of each 
other?

But this author does write competently, and I did find the story sexy. Just 
get rid of the second person voice!


photo shoot fantasy [C]

This one's just as dumb as "Lady Sarah's Erotic Fantasy" but in a different 
way.

A 20-year-old model with "large and pendulous yet conical shaped 
breasts" (Huh? Isn't this a contradiction in terms?) goes into a 
photographer's studio for a shoot. I imagine he's one of those amateur 
photogs who does it for the girls. After a few hot poses, he says, "I want 
your pussy so bad I can't stand it" and she readily agrees to fuck him. 
Just like that. Then she obeys all his other commands, such as spreading 
her legs on demand. 

After that, " 'Suck my dick Holly!!' I yelled along with other random 
obscenities as I reached down to fondle her tits and ass." Gee, and she 
didn't even sign a model release form.

Sorry, but we need a plot, story structure, and characters here.


Three's Company  All Cats are... [B-]
When posted: 9/13/97
Where posted: ASS
Author: Uncle Mike
Posted by: who@why.not

This story was one of many posted by all the same person, who@whynot. 
I skimmed a few others, and they all seemed to be about fairly 
conventional heterosexual encounters spiced with a few lesbian ones. 
They weren't bad enough to be amusing or good enough to be 
memorable. The author of this story was "Uncle Mike." I don't think this 
is a referral to Mike Hunt, as the styles were very different.

"Three's Company" was a TV show popular about twenty years ago about a 
horny guy named Jack who shares his apartment with two female 
roommates, Chrissie and Janet. The landlord doesn't approve of this so 
Jack pretends he's gay. (In retrospect, the landlord was actually a gay 
rights champion who was ahead of his time, given his approval of 
homosexuality but not of heterosexual relations.) It was a dumb show, 
and this is a dumb story.

The fun begins when Jack surprises Janet humping on top of a stud in 
her bedroom. She's nude but for her high stiletto pumps. (Gee, why 
aren't her buttocks pierced by the high heels?)  Jack assumes the guy's 
raping her and pulls him away. The boyfriend leaves, insulted, but Janet 
soon decides to fuck Jack instead. In the time-honored tradition, she 
immediately sucks his cock, then obligingly receives his cum all over 
her tits, face and hair. Jeez, I am so sick of this particular fantasy. Will 
someone please tell me what the appeal of it is for women?

After that, Jack licks her pussy, with the obligatory finger up the ass, 
and she screams, "Yeah, baby! Yeah! I'm gonna cum! I'm gonna... I'm... 
Aieeeeee!" I know this is a spoof, but there are good spoofs, and there are 
bad spoofs, and the fact is "Three's Company" doesn't lend itself to 
spoofing at all, because the premise of it was so campy and loaded with 
smirks in the first place. TV parodies only work when explicit sex would 
be totally out of place in the shows they spoof. The show is also too old for

a TV parody, unless they've been showing on Nick at Night or something.

To be fair the rest of the story was amusing, with Jack going bonkers for 
the comparatively plain Janet instead of sex-bomb Chrissie. He 
eventually fucks Chrissie up the ass as she retrieves something from 
under the bed, mistaking her for Janet from the waist down, and then 
Janet turns into a dominatrix who makes Chrissie lick her pussy as Jack 
fucks her, and then there's the oh-so-original female 69 scene. 

In conclusion, the writer did an OK job of recreating the stupid gags and 
pitfalls of the original show, and the writing was OK for the most part. 
But the many cliches were still annoying.

This story could have been a companion piece to Vickie Tern's "Jaycee" 
which I reviewed last week, told from the viewpoint of the teenage boy. 
It purports to be written by an actual gay, nellie 17-year-old, who says 
"For those of you who are wondering, some parts of this are true, but it is 
a compilation of many events." Okay, I'll take your word for it.

Part fantasy, part narrative, the story concerns an outstanding sexual 
adventure of the young hero, who is employed as an artist's model at a 
special school where male artists go to ogle young, smooth, 
hermaphroditic-looking boys. One guy becomes a special friend of the 
narrator and gives him a powder-blue satin maid's costume to wear, with 
a garter belt and glitter. This turns the narrator on, and that night, he 
agrees to bondage games at a party his older friend throws. Trussed in a 
sling, on exhibition, blindfolded, he enjoys himself immensely...and 
receives many flattering compliments on his good looks.

Although this wasn't the greatest writing in the world, the story was 
interesting, and it was a relief to read about a main character who acts 
and thinks like a real human being instead of a cliche. He says flat-out 
he liked the sex and isn't exploited or abused. He wasn't called a "bitch." 
He told the story in a believable first person voice, with a beginning, a 
middle, and a conclusion. As a plus, no one came on anyone's tits.
