IR Stories Suck...

I've been a literotica fan for many years. I prefer a good read to a good flick any day. For the most part I enjoy what I consume here but one thing I've noticed is the stereotypical way IR erotica is written and since they're submitted by various unprofessional writers I can only surmise that it is the sad state of affairs in society-at-large that is responsible for the morass. In particular, when IR erotica is written involving a black man and non-black woman it tends to be formulaic in that some oversized dick in both senses of the word gets off on misogynistic madness. Mistreating women, calling them all manner of vile names and doing all manner of BDSM inspired lunacy. Just raw animal sex.. Which is fine if that is what floats your ⛵ my motto is "let your freak flag fly", sadly though most of the stories I have read here follow that. Now let's juxtapose this with IR erotica involving black women and non black men. They tend to be formulaic but their formula is most often a formula of true love, and formerly unknown decent treatment. The diamond in the rough so to speak. It so sad that as poorly as I write I may have to try my hand at this in order to stem the tide....
 
I won't argue your point. The Black male/white female stories here are racist trash. Garbage written by, and for, the lowest common denominator of insecure abusive men. And that group looks good compared to the LW Black bull cuck crowd. Roaches are above them.
 
A lot of really bad writers try for very low hanging fruit. As for me I write Asian/White stories. I have black friends but I really don't know how to capture them on the printed page. Also most of the black guys I know tend to date black women. Not that they don't find white women attractive. Sometimes they tell me things that are beyond my experience as a white guy. One friend told me he was dating a very nice white girl until he found out that she lived in the town in Georgia where the Klan was founded! A lot of really insecure guys fear black men irrationally, No wonder the stories in that area are so bad!
 
I lived in Stone Mountain too. The way to write black or any other ethnic characters is simple but not simplistic. Base it on geography not ethnicity. That is the true difference, birds in a flock tend to be similar. So if they're southern they're similarly southern. If they're Minnesotans they're similarly Minnesotans. Race is a man made concept. Geography is the true difference. I say similarly not simplisticly.

I am stealing this line.

My two cents on the OP:

If I were to write anything IR, most likely would be white guy, not white woman. One must follow their own preferences writing (at least I do) or it becomes bad.

My writing on it would either make it the tender fall in love kind of thing you were describing or a BDSM related thing, which if done right can still be the tender fall in love kind of thing.

Honestly, I had not noticed the dispersion. Mainly because I generally stay out of the IR story lists, secondly, because when I do take a vacation over there, I read the white guy/ not white girl stories.

You're right, except finding a decently written BDSM story these days is almost as hard as finding a good IR story.

A certain faction here has turned several categories into lowest common denominator porn. As in every guy has a huge cock, every woman is submissive and the general air is "get on your knees before I rape you bitch"

But this is a porn site and that should be expected. Except when I came here six years ago those stories were the exception, not the norm and it was better before me from what I've heard. The whole site has been slowly sinking into the sewer and when a good story is placed in certain categories its flamed by gutless anonymous.

Lits 'rules and standards', not the fact they are the biggest site, was why I started writing here when I was looking for a place to write. They had the air of not wanting to be a pit like asstr. Those standards are long gone and the site is to blame as much, if not more, then the authors or readers.

But I get it that to them traffic is traffic and it doesn't matter if the traffic is decent folk or rabid trolls. A click is a click.

Too bad they're too oblivious to realize the trolls are beginning to not only drive people off, but shape the content that is acceptable to them. If you don't conform to their bullshit you're flamed and many authors and readers have become tired of it.
 
Room for all

I firmly believe there's room for all. It just saddens me when they're all the same and all so juvenile.
 
I wish the IR category would vanish. It just manifests racial stereotypes. If the most apparent theme in a story is that there is a mixture of skin colors, then the stereotypes are hard to avoid. It's like the only way for non-white people to appear in erotic literature is by making a point out of that they are not white. Pretty damn normative.
 
I separate adult fiction onto a gradient between Porn and Erotica. The more ridiculous a story, the closer to Porn I put it. The more realistic the closer to Erotica it goes.

What I read in this thread are people who want realistic IR but are finding too much ridiculous. I can't comment on the history of Literotica, but I know there has always been a mix of both. In general, I find the site's search features greatly lacking, but I don't know of a place that takes the effort to identify how ridiculous each story is.

For me, when I read ridiculous IR, I know it's a crock. It doesn't change my basic respect for all people. For me IR porn is fantasy, just as stupid as enormous tits and cocks, or bimbos and cuckolds.

Instead of lamenting about stories you don't like, consider promoting the stories you do. Use your negative energy for positive gain.

The problem with that is, like recorded erotic material, people do have a fetish for races. I know people who like X race for porn, and the same occurs here. I do agree it is saturated with stereotypes and a lot of trash, but sometimes I do want to particularly read about an interracial couple, with that being the premier tag. Problem is the stories that are good in that category are often covered in the many crap ones.
 
In direct response to the OP, honestly I agree. I find it petty almost. As if to force some sort of social restitution by having only a single, vastly over used, concept. Unfortunately, the concept has been so over used it's nearly set in stone. It's almost as if there cannot be an average, or smaller, endowed black man. There cannot be a white woman who has no interests.
It seems...well to put it politely, absurd in the extreme. It is ridiculous in my opinion, and I find it lowers the quality of Literotica itself, in regards to the writing. However, worse in my opinion, is the fact that there are some individuals I have identified, who shall remain nameless, who don't seem to write anything but Black Male Dominate, extremely well endowed, and White Female submissive, extremely busty, who can't wait to do anything to get the BBC.

In my life experiences...that just doesn't seem to happen, nor does it happen to my black friends. Let's end the breaking of the suspension of disbelief.
 
I love the IR category. Yes, it is based on taboos but isn't most erotica based on taboos? Like any other category it can be done well or done badly.

Hang on a minute, how is so-called interracial sex (ie sex with a person of a different skincolour) taboo?

It's a very long time indeed since it was illegal in civilised countries. :confused:
 
I excavate facts, fuck what folks think and champion. And the facts are what they are, rarely validating our silly shit dreams. Dig thru the old 1800s papers and youll find tons of wonders youll never believe...plenty of white Southern girls eloped with black servants, plenty of Irish girls made babies with slaves, etc. But the conventional wisdom is: The white master was raping all his ugly slave bitches. Trust me, there were no pretty slave women. Old master went to New Orleans or Charleston to fuck pretty biracial girls. His old lady fucked her white nephews. Male house slaves didn't, as a rule, partake of pussy. I possess plentiful memoirs and records of such activities in my slave owning family. Mostly we owned male slaves and kept the daughters in town away from temptation. Plantation life wasn't a party.

The taboo has become the overt racism and the cuckolding. In civilized countries these can both be met with sanction, legally or through ostracism. Now, when there is a racist backdrop and the understanding that "good girls absolutely shouldn't" participate in miscegenation, then that aspect becomes thoroughly taboo as well. We are talking about making IR babies, so the impregnation fetish has more bite. Of course, the physical stereotypes are embraced because they feed in to the racist backdrop.

Done right, IR porn can titillate and so it has its place I suppose, but I lack the patience to see past the sludge. May I say, I am white, married to a Japanese woman my age, with two kids and it's going very well. Oh and my longest series happens to center on an IR lesbian romance, but then the characters also do it with aliens so I guess my world is a little more open.:cattail:

We must protect the goodness, which is why I just can't find it in me to delve into the racist IR erotica. Moreover, I think we need to keep the pedophiles and rape cultures out of civilized countries (like the opposite of what the EU is doing) because sexually aggressive cultures subsume altruistic ones: it's science. Diversity is weakness, it has never worked at even a community level, let alone at the civilization level. Show me a great empire that was diverse, I'll show you one that was collapsing and did collapse. Maybe it's that unspeakable truth which draws people to depict their apprehensions by writing awful IR porn. It would make sense to me, and it's arguably so regardless of the way they spin the outcome. I'll say no more lest I be booted to general chat.

stereotypes

I got really tired of reading interracial stories because they are page after page of stereotypes. The black men are depicted as violent rapists and black women are ghetto trash. I like interracial stories when race is a part of the person not the person. Both of the of the stories I submitted have been interracial but the characters are just characters not races.

Try this one and see if it is what you are looking for: Around Midnight

Uh-huh. It's kind of amusing that you start out all pious about racist IR porn and veer straight from there into balls-out supremacist xenophobic dogma. Somehow I don't get the feeling from that that it's the racism in IR porn that you're really objecting to.

IR porn is of course no less potentially problematic a kink than noncon or incest or anything else. Most of it runs on bestializing black-white stereotypes that issue from exactly the same place that leads cops to think they have the right to shoot black kids like game animals. In a perfect world sex is just sex no matter the race of who's involved, if there's a frisson of "interracial" taboo and thrill involved it's because racism is involved. (Also why IRL sex with people who are fully running on an "interracial" fetish mostly sucks, it works best as fantasy.)

So, you know, own that. We don't live in a perfect world and we have lots of kinks about destructive things that in the light of day we (hopefully) know aren't healthy, we can at least be eyes-open about them. A lot of IR stories are unreflective racist trash. Personally the lesson I take from that is that when I write IR I try to put the racism of the kink right up-front and the fact that it so often involves nonwhite people (and white people) role-playing something they're not right up front. OTOH once we're across that Rubicon and all about owning shit, I have no problem with making the sex filthy as hell, and I make no apologies; on account of just generally I have no problems with making the sex filthy, but also if someone has racist kinks I'm mostly not buying the pretense that down deep it's all about fluffy romance. If it's not your cuppa then don't read the story. (Fluffy romance stories about people who happen to be from different backgrounds and doing what they need to do to find love and common ground are fine and good and healthy, but that's not "interracial," that's just romance.)

IR stories

I have only written one entirely IR story.The 14 part series "Mrs. Cheng Pays the Debt" Nearly every part is rated as hot.It is about a Chinese woman who had to service two white college boys at the behest of a gambler. I have heard from Asian people how well written it is and also figures high in the probability factor. It happens to be a story about three strong personalities. It helps in that I am a white guy who has dated Asian women extensively. Anne Cheng is not a stereotype and she grows as a person and as a woman during her adventure. Most IR fiction is written by white guys who know no black or Asian, or brown people and it shows. Basically, people are people but they come from different cultures. It really is that simple. Some really racist guys write a lot of trash. I've dated women of every race and treated all of them with respect. A lot of IR fiction is barely literate!
 
I like IR and cuckold stories. Not sure what is so bad about that. Doesn't make me a racist ... why would a racist most IR stories? They me be stereotyping, but don't apeal to racist ... This are just "wanking"-stories ... if IR is bad, what about non-consent ... etc.

What about them? Some of this stuff is guilty pleasures for a reason...

(Don't get me wrong, I try to be realistic about kinks and where they come from and what they imply but I'm not signing up for the fake piety routine we see so often here.)

I enjoyed black bulls during my run at the lifestyle and I enjoy writing stories about them and white submissives now. Tough if someone doesn't like that. They can read other stories.

I am just saying, a lot of the stories on this site are about things, that you shouldn't do in real life. Racism is not acceptable, non-consent is not okay, incest or a lot of teacher\pupil stuff is for a good reason not acceptable.

But this are just erotic sex stories. Kinks are what kinks are ... fun for wanking and for every sane person that's where it stops.
