Find descriptions, preferably in published books of erotica or quality porn. Tell of your search and the ease/difficulty of finding these.
In Best American Erotica, 1994, I've looked at the first parts of six or eight stories, and here's all I could come up with:
I lift the elastic of his underwear, and there is the throbbing head of his red, brown, purple cock, the color of warm meat, engorged with blood and pulsating, uncircumcised, and utterly irresistible. I moan.
===
The bra was black cloth, simple, with no stays. One gloved hand scooped into the right cup, came up with a white mound of tit--red dot of nipple at the tip. She letting it fall outside the bra. Red nipple, wrinkled and angry, pointed at me and my lens. I focused...
It's quite hard to find *anything* beyond a couple sentences running, by way of description. Note how the next sentence after the description returns to the action.
Conclusion: Flat out descriptions--of persons, parts of persons, or objects-- are not all that common, and may even be relatively rare in published erotica or high-quality porn.
Details of physical characteristics--*in a sentence or two at most*-- are most often incorporated into passages about *action*.
I really wonder where this descripto-philia comes from: Is it the influence of high school english teachers who want proof of vocabulary building and thesaurus consultation? Is it the effect of reading mountains of bad porn with its gallons of scalding, frothing, creamy, volcanically erupting cum?
In a published book of 'great short stories' I find a similar pattern. In *one Steinbeck story was a para of description a boy.
Please tell your findings and conclusions.
