Well, I'm not into it personally, but you do you. :shudders:
And you too! What floats your boat doesn't have to be the same as what floats mine.
One of the reasons I chafe somewhat at calls for "responsible erotica" is that I don't want to read or write responsible erotica, and neither do many, many perfectly normal, healthy people. They don't want to read or write erotic stories the subtext of which is "this is what you should do." They want to read stories the subtext of which is "let's get naughty." It's fantasy. An indulgence. I indulge in it guilt free. I read and write about things I have no interest in trying in real life. And I'm not alone. Many erotica readers feel exactly this same way. Modest housewives who've hardly done anything naughty but want to read stories about being ravished and stripped and forced to run naked through the streets or made to turn tricks.
To me it seems obvious that this is a huge part of the appeal of erotica, but some people feel very differently about it.
