James Joyce.
I was never fond of Venus in Furs or the Marquis de Sade's work. von Sacher Masoch's sexuality always seemed a shameful secret, and I think the Marquis' writing is largely libertine philosophies couched in rape and sensational violence, and neither of them appeals to me erotically at all. Which is why, for me, the letters that James Joyce wrote to his wife Nora were a lovely thing to find at 15 or so, because they are some of the most sweetly obscene expressions of love I've ever read.
I read them again recently, here , where they're preceded by the Introduction to the book in which they were published, the Selected Letters of James Joyce. Richard Ellman cautions readers that even though the letters were written for their sexual gratification and are filled with all manner of perversions including fetishism and masochism, that Joyce shouldn't be labeled as such, because, "besides the immediate physical goal, Joyce wishes to anatomise and reconstitute and crystallize the emotion of love....he wishes to possess his wife's soul, and have her possess his, in utter nakedness. To know someone else beyond love and hate, beyond vanity and remorse, beyond human possibility almost, is his extravagant desire."
And I nearly laughed, because to me those two things are companions. In my sex, I can hold my boy's most vulnerable parts in my hands and *twist*, figuratively or literally--or have him do the same to me--and whether it's his balls or his emotions, that act is an expression of love for us. And Joyce's letters were my first tangible taste of that, the idea that sex can be kinky and filthy and passionate and loving all at once.
Also, Mae West, because she was a total badass.

My personal Idol, Role Model and womanI have molded part of my life after...Bettie Page.
A Goddess among us, sensuality, power, self control and her own ability to be strong even in submission. Obvious reason why my nickname is Bette.

Klaus Wowereit, the mayor of Berlin.
Some people seemd to try to end his career by telling openly that he is gay. So he took his only chance and told it before they did.
...and nothing happend.
People said "okay..." and that was it. He even got elected for mayor and did again a second time. The quote "I'm gay, and it's good that way." has become very popular.
I don't really know how things had been before (because I was just 17 then), but I think it was almost as if from one day to the next, being gay was suddenly a thing that would be accepted. I can't remember anyone of popular intrest in germany getting problems for being gay since then again.

Yes, this has very little to do with the OP, but it's nagged me since I read it.
Francis Bacon was not a pagan. Yes, he had a great respect for many of the ancient philosopies of the greeks, egyptians, and romans, but he himself wrote extensively about a seperation of theology and philosophy.
Oh, and for my sexual hero/heroine, it's actually hard to say. I guess I just don't place that much emphasis on sexuality in my life to really have a "hero". I'd say Sir Ian McKellen is a hero for standing up and speaking out against Thatcher's Section 28 admendment that would have outlawed public displays of homosexuality in 1998.
Where I come from, that takes balls.

The story associated with that is very ballsy and funny. Apparently McKellen was lunching with an MP who supported the measure and it came up in discussion. There was some friction, the MP asked McKellen to sign an autograph for his kids or neice or something and McKellen took the pen and wrote "fuck off, I'm gay"
So I've read in his account.

Reading back over the posts of this thread...
...reminds me once again what a great thing we all have here, so a big thank you going out to all the people at Literotica firstly for making all of this happen...
Merci, grazia and thank you, all!
I mean you only have to scroll down over the individual posts at the different types of people and it kind of has me thinking of those images of those shoals of fish off one of the great coral reefs...full of colour and natural strangeness...i often console myself, when i'm feeling a little weird, that there's nothing weirder out there then nature/life herself...anyway, I'm rambling...
So for what it's worth here are just some comments to acknowledge some of your posts and to share something with you, that's why we're here, right?
Firstly Netzach, I have to start with you/ Circe...
How deviously classical of you (oink,oink!). So I will have to add the wily Odysseus to my list to keep her company, hmmm? what do you think?
As for Bataille, I have yet to read him but am familiar a little with his 'work'.
Now, I am intrigued.
as for Tina modotti, please excuse my ignorance, but I'm unfamiliar with her/him? Please enlighten me. Failing that, please come back and visit me again. For me this brief encounter was exquisite!
CUTIE MOUSE, I couldn't agree with you more. Sex/kink and mind. For me there is nothing more exciting than a woman who is curious sexually. Who likes to deviate from the norm. Please, stick around. boy
Satin Coals, glad to make you smile man. I know what you mean, isn't so funny sometimes reading all this crazy fucked up shit from entire strangers.
Sometimes I laugh so loud with some of the people chatting here. Here's to honesty and sayin what you mean!
CFuhrer, Coincidence! I've just put Lord byron down. Wasn't he great. I love the preface where he bawls the lake poets out (Wordsworth etc) for being so fucking vanilla. Truly a good one. I met a statue of him in Rome last year and I stood beside it. Pity it couldn't speak.
Dexwebster, J Joyce indeed. I know exactly what you mean. Penelope, or Nora's final monologue in Ulysses has passages of sublime kinkiness, panto boys in tights being pulled off by older women etc.. not to mention CIRCE episode (see Netzach) where Stephen and bloom meet the Domms in Nighttown. Joyce was Dublin's kinkiest citizen. Nightown woof, woof.
and finally O Mac. I'm sorry man but this is the second time you come around with some beef... listen man if you read back over, which you obviously didn't, you will realise that I was speaking about francis Bacon the PAINTER, and not the PHILOSOPHER. OK! Rebecca was even kind enough to post up some of his paintings. So, listen. if you want to get involved in a discussion in the future, no problem man, but just at least have the courtesy to pay attention to what people say. OK? rest easy child
Love to you all Boy

No beef from me, boyvenus. I actually just noticed that a bit too late in the game. My bad. Although I don't see how I was out of line. I was incorrecting correcting a mistake which ended up not being a mistake that needed correcting. I assumed you meant Francis Bacon the writer and philosopher and simply wanted to clarify what I had thought was a misrepresentation. Nothing wrong in pointing something like that out, and there was no malice behind the post.
And really, how many Francis Bacons are there out there?

I usually say I have no heroes, because every person has flaws, but if I were to pick some men I admire, it'd be Larry Flynt and maybe the Marquis de Sade. Anyone who tried to make the world safe for perverts and sexual deviants.

Susie Bright She's absolutely brilliant. I've read so many of her books, and I agree with almost everything she says. She's incredibly sex-positive, and her books have educated a lot of people. She lets women know it's ok to be sexual. I wrote her a fan email one day, and she wrote me back a few days later and was really sweet and kind and humble. She rocks
