Lit is not just a fucking porn site.

It's at least that, yes. For many of the people who pass by, looking in, reading a few stories, trying to get a few pics of a few chicks here, it's at least that.

It's more, however, for many of us.

One gets what they want and need and desire from this place.

Whether they want only the one-dimensional pleasures of "just a porn site" or the richness of a very supportive and going online community, with the squabbles, love affairs, fights, pairings, breakups, breakdowns, friendships, kisses, toes-stepped-on, conventions, customs, long-term enminities, cliques, groupings, histories, etc of all such places.

I'm getting pretty tired of people pronouncing so cynically, so superciliously, that this is just a porn site when for most of us, it's as much a community as is any we're a part of, slipstream or everyday life.

Lit is only "just a porn site" if that's all you want from it, all you're willing to give to it. you're definitely missing the best stuff, though, if that's all you can find here.
 
Lit's the first porn site I've kept coming back to horny or not. Isn't that perverse?
 
Why does it upset you so?

For some people it is just a porn site. They are no more wrong for feeling that way as you are not wrong for your feelings that it is a online community.

Why should you waste your time and energy trying to convince someone who has already made up their mind about something instead of enjoying yourself and making the community an even better place to be?
 
It's really several sites:
The porn stories are at its heart. I know of no other site that devotes as many resources to its authors. It is what hooks most of us, and keeps us coming back.

It is also a comunity of artists, writers, and editors, who thanks to Laurel and Manu have a series of forums to use to improve thier skills.

There are the SRP boards where you can become anything that you can dream up if you can convice someone to play along with you.

Most of us just became aware that the Personals forum has several threads that are much like what you might find on the general board.

Then there are the varius picture portions and the audio stories.

Yes, Lit is much more than your average porn site.

Not that being a porn site is a bad thing.
 
It doesn't upset me, Tyrael.

And i simply felt called to say this, just as you feel called to sometimes post manga.

AND i feel that this is a good use of my time and energy or i wouldn't be doing it.

Thanks Cym:) that's really what the point of my thread a couple weeks ago was. I'm just not sure it got the point across;)

I like the fact that this is an interesting community and hope to get to know more people here. I'm not certain why it bothers you that some people get nothing but porn out of it. Some people just don't have any appreciation of what is here or the ability to add anything... oh well.
 
Lit is without definition.

Lit is what you, as the user, take from it.

It is KM's and cym's community.

It is Mile's porn site.

It is an intellectual playground for some.

It is a literary cafe wherein there is an exchange of works and ideas for some.

For others, it is a singles club...single or not.

For many, it is the back room wherein one can let down their hair, be who they like and say exactly anything they chose.

For yet others, it is a place of exploration and opening of the mind and soul.

Still, others take superficial entertainment from lit.

And, no one is wrong for using lit as they chose! That is the beauty of lit.

I was going to post about this again but you put it better than I could.
 
Cym..

Well, at first.. I came for the stories.. and a month later, I found an awesome community with wonderful people.

Not only did I stay... but in an odd way, I feel like I have a new family, where I fit in.. I've been looking for that for a long time, as cheesy as that sounds.

I love this place, no matter how many fights go on.. or how many people get offended. At heart, we are all still friends. And what's cool is I already want to meet a lot of you! I actually don't look at this as a porn site.. even though -part- of it is.

Thanks for your post, Cym. :)

The world today seems absolutely crackers,
With nuclear bombs to blow us all sky high.
There's fools and idiots sitting on the trigger.
It's depressing and it's senseless, and that's why...

I like Chinese.
I like Chinese.
They only come up to your knees,
Yet they're always friendly, and they're ready to please.

I like Chinese.
I like Chinese.
There's nine hundred million of them in the world today.
You'd better learn to like them; that's what I say.

I like Chinese.
I like Chinese.
They come from a long way overseas,
But they're cute and they're cuddly, and they're ready to please.

I like Chinese food.
The waiters never are rude.
Think of the many things they've done to impress.
There's Maoism, Taoism, I Ching, and Chess.

So I like Chinese.
I like Chinese.
I like their tiny little trees,
Their Zen, their ping-pong, their yin, and yang-ese.

I like Chinese thought,
The wisdom that Confucious taught.
If Darwin is anything to shout about,
The Chinese will survive us all without any doubt.

So, I like Chinese.
I like Chinese.
They only come up to your knees,
Yet they're wise and they're witty, and they're ready to please.

All together.

[verse in Chinese]
Wo ai zhongguo ren. (I like Chinese.)
Wo ai zhongguo ren. (I like Chinese.)
Wo ai zhongguo ren. (I like Chinese.)
Ni hao ma; ni hao ma; ni hao ma; zaijien! (How are you; how are you; how are you; goodbye!)

I like Chinese.
I like Chinese.
Their food is guaranteed to please,
A fourteen, a seven, a nine, and lychees.

I like Chinese.
I like Chinese.
I like their tiny little trees,
Their Zen, their ping-pong, their yin, and yang-ese.

I like Chinese.
I like Chinese.
They only come up to your knees...
 
Yeah, I'll quote a virgin....

With the high percentage of non-porn related material, it could not by definition be "just a porn site".
 
you're right...

it's not JUST a porn sight.

however, it is a pornsight.

I'm probably repeating some other intelligent poster, let's just say I agree with them.:D

P-shah. You are so in the minority on this point. This place is far more populated with people like me, only here for hard-core porn pleasure.
 
Lit is alive with all sorts of people and things. It is walmart dressed up, and tiffanys naked on the street. She is a whore with no soul, and innocent equally. It is a place to think, share, fuck, nibble, meet, be a whore, or a saint, and maybe smarter than we are for real. We fight, we cry and when someone hurts we comfort them, and when someone succeeds we cheer. Lit is alive. We are its cells, its genetic strand, and we change daily. We morph her to something new with each word. Porn board yes, and sadly for those who only see it as such. But so much more if we want it to be.
