Your preference in a mom/son story

I'm having trouble getting motivated to write. I like stories where the mothers are sexy and sexually active (even if its for a brief period of time - as is the case in some of my stories).

I'm hearing some readers don't like it when the mother is having sex with other men or women (this is typically BEFORE she consummates things with her son). I like it though. Maybe the single mom has a friend she sees occasionally with whom she sleeps with. I think that's fine, but some folks would rather read a story with NO other characters interacting with the mother except the son.

I fear as though I'm falling into a trap where I write to please others and not to set the stories in my head free.

So what's your preference?
1. a sexy, sexually active, mother
2. a woman and her son - no other people in the story before him (unless its the father etc)
3. doesn't matter, I should write whatever I want, ignoring opinions of others.
 
It depends what you are going for. A sexually active mother, who eventually gets around to boinking her son, has a certain type of squikiness to it that some readers will enjoy.

On the other hand, a prim and proper mom, who eventually succumbs to the extraordinary attraction she feels to her son, has a whole other type of squikiness, that other readers will enjoy.

My suggestion is to write what gets you turned on. Then it will be genuine, and probably better at achieving its goals.

I'm trying to walk that line in the Hallowe'en vignette I'm writing today. Son comes home from college for first 'adult' Hallowe'en since his father abandoned the family the prior Xmas. Son and Mom hand out candies to trick-or-treaters, lounge on the sofa afterward munching pizza, watching Creature Features, and drinking overly-strong Candy-Corn vodka. Maybe puffing a little Candyland pot too. They're snuggled together on the couch. Who makes the first move? I'm coming up to that part. What's the squikiness level of stoned-drunk clinging mutual attraction? Guess I'll let them surprise me -- in about two paragraphs.

Generally speaking, you should write for yourself, because that makes the story better- because you're interested in it.

Plus this sort of story does have an audience, granted, a smaller audience than a traditional mother/son story. Make sure you advertised it properly to avoid attracting readers who don't like this subject. (ie have the title and story description reflect the content)

Also, I haven't seen much of an issue with the mom character having sex with other men, if it's before the stuff happens with the son. It should be okay.
 
Personally I prefer the conservative, reluctant, proper kind of mom who feels guilty as hell for what's happening but just can't resist the temptation...

Having said that, I would really want to read a story that goes beyond just the mother and son fucking. Like for example, mother eventually divorces husband, son proposes to mom and they get married in a beautiful ceremony. Just imagine how the minister conducts the ceremony... " Do you take your son to be your lawfully wedded husband... Do you take your mother to be your lawfully wedded wife..." Dad comes to the wedding too and later congratulates his ex-wife and son...
 
My thoughts

I think its important that there is some aspect of the mother's sexuality that the mother-son relationship unlocks. She could be sexually active but her new relationship with her son takes it to a whole new level that neither of them have experienced ever before. So perhaps she was plain vanilla before and learns to enjoy riding a cowboy...perhaps she was only 'lights off' and now enjoys teasing him in broad daylight...it has to bring out the beautiful, sensual, erotic, lusty woman in the mother.

This highlights a couple of my "rules of writing" (which I often ignore):

* At the heart of story is tension; at the heart of tension is unmet desire.
* The point of an erotic story is the transformation by erotic experience.

The taboo relationship should always involve transformation. The kin are changed; closer, yes, but also different, not quite who they were before. They explore, and teach and learn, and move beyond the past. They learn to love in new ways. They blossom.

That!

The transformation is not always good, however. In my THE BOOK OF RUTH series (which I need to complete) the narrator's older sister and then his mother use him, exploit him, and not in the cartoon style of making him their dog, but more nefariously. Taboo involves power, and incest all too often involves power asymmetry. The less powerful may feel compelled to act as they do; or the transformation might be into something they end up regretting. I'll address that in my upcoming conclusions to the BLACK & WHITE stories.

So I should amend my previous post. They learn to love in new ways. They can blossom. And they can crush, or wither.
 
I did have a similar idea I posted to someone else a while back:

A teen is raised by a single mom (divorced or widowed, whichever). Mom would be early to mid 40's but has kept herself in really good shape.

They're not that well off, and the mother notices that even the son has been struggling to help. His 18th birthday is soon approaching, yet she can't afford much of anything to give him. Still, she knows he deserves something great, not only for such an important milestone, but to thank him for all his hard work.

Eventually, she comes up with an idea: On his 18th birthday, she sits him and tells him what his gift is: "My gift to you is... me", she says. She explains that, while they'll go on living their lives, there'll be one important difference: From now on, when he wants her to do something, she'll do it, no questions asked.

There's exceptions of course: She's not going to kill or hurt anyone. She won't go out and rob a bank or anything like that, but when they're together, he can tell her to do something and she'll do it. The son is puzzled and doesn't really know what to make of this gift at first but accepts it graciously.

Over the next few days, she follows simple requests, like what show to watch and what to make for dinner. The son doesn't even notice much change. Then one day, she's clearing old clothes from her closet to give away. The son comes in and notices a fairly short sundress. Not really thinking about it, he says it looks really nice and she should wear it instead of throwing it out. To his surprise, he later sees she's put it on. Later that day, she drives him somewhere and he can't help but notice the dress shows off a lot of her legs, especially sitting in the car. He's never thought of her like that, but can't help but admit to himself that she looks really good.

The next day, she comes down dresses in a pair of long pants. Wanting to test the "gift", he asks her to go up and change into a pair of shorts, which she does. This becomes a daily routine, with her wearing shorts or a short skirt or dress that shows off her legs. She seems conflicted at first, but soon gets used to it.

Then one day, he reads something online about living mannequins in store windows, which gets him thinking. He goes down to find his mother doing something, and asks her if she would freeze like a mannequin for him. She immediately freezes. He looks at her from all angles, but holds off on doing more. After a few minutes, he tells her to move again, and decides to leave it at that for now. This too, becomes a regular occurrence, having her freeze in the middle of doing something, so he can look at her.

She usually gives a kiss goodnight, or a kiss hello when one of them comes home. Feeling bolder, he asks if they can make the kisses longer. Again, she's hesitant, but decided a promise is a promise. Their kisses do get longer after a few days, and even a bit open-mouthed.

As days and weeks go by, his requests do get bolder and bolder. He suggests she sit on his lap whenever he sits on the couch, watching TV. Their kisses go further, starting to include some tongue. One day, he asks if he can touch her. She seems quite nervous at this and hesitates, but eventually decides she's made a promise.

He starts running his hands over her arms and bare legs at various times. Sometimes he'll tell her to freeze, which she will, at which point, he'll run his hands over her body, positioning her arms and legs in various poses for him to look at or touch. Watching TV on the couch soon turns into her sitting on his lap, making out with him, which he runs his hands up her short skirt.

(I think you can figure out where it goes from there)

Just a few caveats I'd like to have:

-I'm not into anal or anything too rough.
-The son shouldn't suddenly become cruel, want to humiliate her, or share her with anyone else. This should be something just between them.
-No pregnancies
-Don't worry about acknowledging me or anything like that. I'm not really interested in recognition.

How does that sound?
 
I honestly have no preference between 1 and 2, but even if I did, I think you should go with 3. It's your story.
 
Here are more thoughts:

I think it depends on how far you go with the mom having sex with another man. There is actually a loyal audience of readers who like having the mom sleep with another man, and uses that to somehow humiliate the son. But, those kinds of stories alienate a lot of the traditional mother/son readers.

However, if the mom is having a sexual relationship with another guy at the beginning of the story, the majority of mother/son readers don't really have a problem with that, as long as the son ends up being the main guy at the end- generally speaking.

Yes I'm seeing that alienation as well. In one of my stories (The Challenge part 1) the mother slurped, sucked, and rode a big black cock while her son watched via hiding in a closet of the bedroom.
Some were outraged at that. She wasn't 'cuckolding' her son AT ALL. She was putting on a sexy show for him, to demonstrate how hot sex could be with her. They both agreed he would hide and watch her in action. The man just happened to be a black man they met while on vacation. I thought it was a sexy scene, so I wrote it.
Thank you for your insight!
 
I prefer a father/daughter story, so in a mom/son story I want the whole family to get involved. How you get there is part if the fun- write it how you want.
 
I have read my fair share of mom/son incest stories and the one's that I like are were the son is

injured or becomes disabled in some way and the son needs help releasing his sexual frustration.

Because he can't do it himself do to the injury or the disability that has happened to him.
