Women: "What goes oooon in your mind?"

Sometimes a "I'm a man and I want to write women" thread comes along and I think "I can contribute to that." Others I'll think "looks like some other ladies have that one covered." Every once in a while, though, I come across one that's just "ick."

This is the latter.
I'll take that, because I cooked up the 'ick'. In my defense, however, I am interested in boosting male written erotica a bit. See my How To stuff. Most simply, I want to write stories that appeal to people who identify as women as much or more than giving guys more 'wank fodder'. And it's a more interesting challenge. My running joke is that men will get hot when they see an 'S' curve. Should I just say, "The women authors are doing a fine job. Leave this stuff to them?" Mebbe. Absolutely need more women writers here. AND we need stories that appeal to all genders because they get into the heads of characters of all genders.
 
Either all the women authors of Lit have been too busy to answer, or maybe they don't care if the guys of Lit write authentic POV of women masturbating.

This might come as a shock to you, but the women authors of Lit are not responsible for the quality of your art.

I’m interested in boosting male-written erotica as well (women- and other-written too, but funnily enough, I haven’t seen that much poor execution on their parts). Have you checked out my event, Pink Orchid?

You're right, I agree, it is my responsibility. That's why I was interested in this thread. Is that really such a problem?
 
Erotic videos that feature women masturbating are a curious thing. Most of the time, unless she is a "Harry Met Sally" actress, her 'ministrations' are pretty quiet. If I'm writing the 'interior monolog' of a female character, I'm curious about some variations about what is going on in her head. Orgasms don't always seem to be the goal; although that seems to be changing in the latest generation with access to an amazing bundle of sex toys. Is 'edging' a thing for you? How does that work? (Very few guys can do edging, although it is worth learning.) There seems to be a pretty good variety in what actually is an orgasm, or just satisfaction. Do you go for a particular kind of satisfaction? Do you want a different experience on different days? When do you need some kind of interior satisfaction (when you are on your own)? If you are with a partner who penetrates can you tell them what you need when in order to 'get it'. If you are mature, has your ability to tell your mate what you want changed over time?

Lots of questions: reflections on any of them would be helpful in depicting honest female characters in all your variety.

And guys: Let the women speak for themselves. I'm sure there are lots of "My GF tells me she loves..." Have her write about it. Might add spice to your BR.

Just the fantasy.
I thought I'd add that all of my fiction on Lit are reports of those fantasies, if you want more concrete detail. But I should also add that I'm a rare bird, and as far as I can tell the content is unusual.
 
I have been following this thread and although it has gone off the rails a bit, I’ll
add my perspective.
1. Orgasms as the goal- pretty much always. Unless I’m intentionally edging, which means orgasm is the longer term goal anyway.
2. Orgasms vs satisfaction- honestly, I’m rarely satisfied without an orgasm, but the process of getting there is certainly enjoyable. Depending on the day and my available free time, I may take my time and have one great orgasm, or I may make myself cum 10 times, it depends how I’m feeling.
3. Do I want different experiences on different days- yes. Sometimes different orgasm to orgasm or hour to hour. Again, it depends on how I’m feeling. I may spend time fantasizing about a romantic encounter or I may be aroused enough to just turn my vibrator on high and not think about anything or anyone. But that’s rare.
4. Penetration - never required- sometimes preferred. Again, it’s depends.
I’ll return to answer the rest.
 
I didn't know what I was doing had a name, but I love edging. It makes the orgasm so much more intense. And it gets me so hot when my husband does that to me.

Orgasm is the goal for me most of the time; the other times, I'm doing pre-game warm-up for couple time. In a perfect world, I would have all the time and space to pleasure myself, but the reality is less glamorous. Time pressure because of family puts a major cramp on my self-love. I love when I can be expressive as I orgasm, but rarely get to do so. I've fallen asleep while masturbating because I was just so darn tired and had to wait until everything else was done. It's easier now that the kids are older and more independent, but I would prefer to have privacy without any possibility of getting interrupted. Talk about a mood killer.

I have a drawer full of toys I'd love to sort through and play with and enjoy, but what working mom has that kind of time and privacy?

My Hitachi Magic Wand is the guaranteed orgasm go-to, but I usually like to get myself off manually first. Why? Not sure. I think it's just what I'm used to since I just discovered the Magic Wand a few years ago. I'm not typically a fan of insertion--that depends on how much time, privacy, and bandwidth I have. An egg insertible + Magic Wand = my complete satisfaction. Stress blocks my orgasms better than an overprotective big brother, though.
