A few people have been complaining about problems with my 
website. I reloaded the main page (the "table of contents" one) 
that seemed to be the culprit, but we'll just have to see. The 
problem seemed to be the meta code from the SafeSurf link. If 
problems persist, please tell me.

The stories:

Little Filly, by EZwriter (M/F ponygirl, romantic)
Jungle Ecstasy, Chapters 1 and 2, by Jorgen Karlsson (M/F, cons)
My Slut Diaries - Beach, by Babette Chandler (M/F, cons, slut)
Nunc Dimittis 5a and 5b, by Andrej Koymasky (M/M wartime romance)
ManDance, by Rajah Dodger (M/F, femdom, striptease)
The Tape, by Asparrow (M/F, D/S)


Little Filly [A]

A woman goes into a singles bar and meets an older cowboy in 
his 50s. She's attracted to his courtliness and they go back to 
his ranch, where he informs her, "You are a beautiful little 
filly. I want to exercise you a little and then put you in the 
stall with my stallion so he can mount you." 

The narrator is more than a little alarmed (and aroused) by 
this, but by the tone of the story, it's clear the cowboy is only 
teasing her and that the "stallion" is really himself. An expert 
horseman, he undresses the heroine, feeds her subarcubes, 
bridles her, and turns her out for a run. All this is done with 
gentleness and affection, for, as the cowboy says, "Horses are 
beautiful and sensual creatures." No one gets whipped or 
strapped in wierd little pieces of leather.

In sum, a romantic ponygirl story minus the gear. I liked it!

I'm all for multinational sex stories. After all, English-
speaking people hardly have a corner on porn. However, the 
above story makes a good case for choosing one's translater 
very carefully.

The story was the first two chapters of a longer novel 
translated from Swedish dealing with M/F sex, F/F sex, 
humiliation, and cruelty, though this excerpt only dealt with 
the the M/F sex. The setting seems to be a prehistoric 
hunter/gatherer never-never land. Loukee and Mannee, 
members of a primitive tribe, go about their daily business 
and have sex in a river, while Hee, a ripening teenager, kills a 
wild pig and has an orgasm over it. I'm not kidding. Not 
intrinsically flawed stuff, and the old world quality of the 
prose gave it a stately, dignified feel. But what is one to make 
of passages like "Hee held her breath, placed an arrow in her 
bow and waited. A flock of pigs, four grown and three babies, 
closed in on the watercourse. She smiled to herself. 
"Uncautious pigs", she thought. Like shooting at a tied down 
prey?" It's almost like a Monty Python parody.

I wanted to be generous with this story, because it was trying 
to convey a healthy, all-natural Scandinavian attitude towards 
sex in the Iron Age; but, well, something got lost in the 
translation.


My Slut Diaries - Beach [C-]

There was no way I could be as generous or insightful with 
this story as I was with the one above. The piece is of the "look 
at what a slut I am" variety and purports to be a diary entry. 
Yeah, right. Like young women really write things like "This 
weekend I was at the beach. I wore my bright green string 
bikini, the top had triangles that just barely covered my 36D's 
and the bottom was a small triangle held on by two strings around my 
26"waist, and one running up the crack of my Ass. "

The slut runs into an old boyfriend she still has the hots for, 
but he's with his wife, the slut's former rival who snagged the 
prize salami by becoming pregnant. Does this deter our 
heroine? No, for "I moved the material of my bikini bottom 
aside so he could see my pink shaved Cunt. As he continued to 
look, I spread my legs wide and started to touch myself there. I 
rubbed my clit and let him see how hot it got me, I fingered 
myself and looked straight in his eyes. It was so cool cause Gail 
was right there. He kept looking and I sucked my fingers and 
lips, his Cock got real hard I could see it."

The rest of the story takes things from there. 

I know this was supposed to be a stroke story and not bound by 
the rules of normal fiction, but the whole thing sounds like it 
was written by a character from "Melrose Place" who's 
suffering from heavy brain damage. The author also has a 
penchant for capitalizing really important words like Ass and 
Cunt, just to let us know this is a sex story.

Stories like this are scary. What do they say about the average 
level of literary sophistication in this country?

On the eve of WWII, a reporter of British citizenry but Italian 
descent has an affair with a young British Lord whose family 
owns the London Times newspaper. Real life intrudes, and the 
two find themselves serving in the Royal Navy on the same 
ship. This chapter was an excerpt from a longer novel 
available on the author's web site.

Like "Jungle Ecstasy" this story was written by a non-English 
speaker (Italian, in this case) but the translation was 
accomplished much more smoothly. I could see the story 
working very well as a PBS drama, a sort of gay historical 
drama/romance taking place against the political background 
of occupied Europe. It sounds like the author is writing from 
firsthand experience, in the sense of living through the 
era...such as the revelation that priests and nuns piloted 
boats to participate in the evacuation of Dunkirk. Interesting 
stuff, without or without the romance.

Rajah says this is the first sex story he wrote, and with a 
birthdate of 1990. that makes it venerable among sex stories. 
Authors and websites come and go so fast, the shelf life of any 
neterotica seems to be measured in months, maybe 3 years if 
it's archived at a popular site.

The story is slightly rough as regards style, but still good smutty fun. A 
guy tries to pick up women by posing as an exotic male 
dancer. He hits the jackpot when three gals take him home to 
give a private performance for them. He's never danced 
before, but so what? He strips to various pieces of music 
(among them Pink Floyd and Eric Clapton) then the ladies 
chain him to a bench and assault him most pleasurably. All in 
all, a nice take on a femdom tale without the cruelty that 
infests the genre.

As anyone one who reads these postings regularly knows, I 
have a soft spot for BDSM fiction. When it's done well, it's 
very, very arousing. When it's done poorly, it's very, very 
stupid. And when people take it seriously, it's very, very silly.

That's the case with this story. It's framed as a transcription of 
a cassette tape a dom has sent to his sub, a list of instructions 
of what she is to do and how she is to do it, like: 

 "Ah, yes and now move to one of my favorite parts.  Yes, down 
to your breasts.  Ah yes, squeeze them, slave girl.  Oh, I am 
enjoying the sight of this.  Squeeze them, slave girl, rub them.  
Oh, and don't ignore those nipples.  No.  Mmmmm.  Yes, do it 
just as if I were there, doing it for you instead while you were 
chained helplessly, unable to resist.  Which, in truth you are, 
whether I bother to chain you or not.  Isn't that right, slave 
girl?  Mmm.  So nice.  Definitely one of your more attractive 
features. Keep your back straight, slave girl!  Keep it straight.  
No slouching before your master.  It would...displease me.  Yes, 
keep playing with those nipples, slave girl.  Twist them 
gently, roll them back and forth.  Oooh yes, keep them awake, 
I like the sight of them.  " 

I get the giggles even *imagining* people in the real world 
doing this. I mean, it's ridiculous. What else can you say about 
two people masturbating alone and pretending they're 
masturbating together, or a woman who takes subbing so 
seriously she'll follow a set of taped instructions to the letter?

Now I'm going to do a 180 degree reversal and say this *was* 
an unusual and arousing story for those who like D/s, though 
a bit too repetitive perhaps. But it was funny, too. Very funny.
