What is the commonly used trope that irks you the most?

I'm probably pretty guilty of my female characters "gushing" a lot during orgasms.

I tend to see it as poetic license mixed with the usual erotica exaggeration.
✅
Women do self lubricate during sex. How much varies from woman to woman obviously. But many produce more during orgasm. Maybe not the "rivers" or "streams" or "puddles" we writers like to refer to. But again some exaggeration is fine and gets the point across.

"Squirting" can definitely be a more than over the top trope, especially when she's blasting streams like a fire hose.
When pornstars do that, it’s urination.
We like to exaggerate our male ejaculation, too. They don't just cum, they "explode," "launch large ropes of spunk," "blast her face, covering her all over" etc.
Yup, no guy in erotica oozed cum. Pre-cum, of course.
The truth is the average male ejaculates 1/4 to 1 full teaspoon.
Though you can increase this on a given occasion by appropriate preparation. If you are dedicated enough.

I’ve got a 750 IR queued which features a lesbian threesome between a black, a white and an asian girl. The black girl has cornrows, but that’s about it. And it’s not like it’s untrue.

I’m expecting to be lynched.

Please be sure to link that story for me. I would enjoy it.

Especially as someone who published a five-way lesbian orgy between two black girls of varying skin tones, two white girls (one blonde, one reddish brunette), and a Hispanic girl with flashbacks to the Hispanic girl having fun with an Asian girl in her past a while back. :D
 
Oh yes... These aren't some random stormtroopers from some pissant little moon somewhere, these are the Imperial Stormtroopers, the elite of the elite, chosen, cherished, equipped with the best equipment and training that stolen resources can provide, yet give them a barrel full of fish to shoot and the only thing they'll hit is the bird flying by overhead. It's one of the reasons I haven't been able to watch any of it since I was about 20.
You have to just let it flow over you. It’s a B-movie. Just a very good B-movie.

Non erotica pet peeve trope:

Time travel to solve the problem.

Time travel stories can be fun of course. The problem is when they're badly written, and Time travel is used to solve the plot and everything goes back to normal with zero consequences. What was the fucking point then?

It's why I loved Avengers: Endgame so much. I was terrified they'd use Time travel to just magically solve everything.

Instead, they solved one problem, but caused others. And there major ramifications and consequences

I will admit I'm guilty of this too. Never been with a real life squirter. But I wouldn't mind being with one and cleaning up afterwards. I'm also on the record as a man who has varying levels of orgasmic ejaculation. Sometimes I've gushed, usually I just spurt a small amount. My lovers have never made lasting complaints.

Sure - publishes Feb 10 I think

But no, we need to have a 300 lb 6,7" rippling Mandingo shoving his bus-sized penis into a white cunt that is already cumming on sight of his impossible junk and he's going to thrash her mercilessly for hours on end and cum multiple times without going soft between and she's going to love every nano-second of it since none of her previous white lovers could ever come close to the superhuman porn machine that's drilling her out (and she will emphatically declare so), and the whole thing will be laced with the tackiest porn dialogue.
And that's where Pink ran out of breath ;).
 
Talking of shooting, I haven't been able to fully relax and watch a western for decades, because I find myself counting the shots fired as the antagonists fight their way down Main Street without the need to reload - "Woah, you've got an eleven shooter there, compadre?!"
 
BBC. It's racist and exhausting.

It's only a Kink b/c white men internalized their own horrifically racist and misogynist lies about race and penis size - which were intended to make their white women fearful of black men. Disgusting.
Agreed

They reloaded quickly when they weren't the focus of the camera- or they switched guns... yeah... that must be it.

On the reverse; Absolutely love how the John Wick films organically worked in reloading the weapons during extended shoot out scenes.
 
Interracial being anything other than just sex between two Homo sapiens. Tiny white girls being violated by BBCs as if a wild animal has been let loose on them. Hate the segregationalist undertones. Hate the black guys as something other than human undertones.

People are people. Melanin and collagen levels are entirely irrelevant.

Thinking about the black guys in my stories:

  1. A ship’s officer, senior to the FMC
  2. An ex-marine working in security and head over heels with a supporting FC
  3. An older owner of a chocolatier - that was a bit tropey, it made sense in the story and I asked a couple of black friends here if they thought it OK

I recommend the recent release Argylle. It has some over the top gunfight action, but it does have hero and heroine romantically reloading each other's weapons and calling their shots for each other in the fight too. I enjoyed that.

It's on my list to see hopefully this week.
 
Lesbians who secretly yearn for men.
I can definitely understand this one. My son's best friend is a lesbian. She lived with my family and me through her junior/senior years of high school (family troubles) and we're quite close. After 15+ years of knowing her, my circle of gay friends/acquaintances has widened. Any lesbian I've known would be disgusted by the thought.
