Lite Erotica: The Diet Cola of Perversity

[sincerely_helene]

I don't know if it was intentional or not, but the URL "Literotica" has always struck me as somewhat ingenious.

When I first stumbled upon the site 4 or 5 years ago, I was sick to death of all the raunchy, redundant sex stories floating around in cyberspace, and the mushy Harlequin romance genre just didn't hold much appeal to me. I needed to find a happy medium; a "sugar-free," yet somewhat emotionally sado-masochistic version of erotica if you will. By this I mean little or no actual physical/sexual interaction, but rather delicious, unadulterated mind play between the characters which results in their (not to mention my own) arousal.

Anyway, one night while I was feeling especially horn... err, bored, I ventured off into a series of searches to find what I was looking for. Alas, my efforts were in vain, and even dear old Jeeves was on the verge of telling me to F off. Just as I was about to bannish myself to the couch to watch "Dangerous Liaisons" for the 1001th time, a light of hope shon down into my URL field and angels did sing. A deep Godlike voice instructed me "Go into the light, my child, ... (and then type in 'Liteerotica.')" And so I did.

I don't know if it was fate, or just poor spelling that brought me to this place, but it took over two years for my brain to realize that it was LIT erotica, and not LITE Erotica. Even though it may not have been exactly what I was looking for, it's the closest I have come so far and I'm extremely grateful to have met so many creative, compassionate, witty, intellegent, sick, twisted and perverted individuals.

Anyway, I think this started off as a question regarding the marketing potential of a particular genre, but now I'm feeling all weepy and semi-mental.

I get that way too about this place.

 

[cantdog]

G'day, kid. Sugar free porn. Great notion.

 

[Salvor-Hardon]

I honestly forget how I found this place, but I am so very thankful I did. Not only as an outlet for my secret creative urges but also for teh wonderful connections to so many great people (sincerely helene being a stellar example of such).

Lite, Lit, Dark, Black, whatever, give me a supersize and an order of fries please!

I was sent here by an author. He'd made his story available over p2p networks, where I scooped it in. I sent him feedback, and he wrote back to recommend this place. He must use a different name here, because I didn't see the one on the other story anywhere on the site. He did me a favor, though.

I was looking for some good reading and googled, erotic literature. I've never been the same since.

 

[Guest]

That post gave me the horn. How odd.

Trying to learn the horn parts for "Amarillo". That song has to be the diametrical opposite to sex music.

 

[English Lady]

My husband led me to literotica, bless is horny little socks, though it took me a coupl of years to discover the forums

Helene -just 'cos!

I'm exciting, you twit. You just pass out from being over stimulated with my 400 megawatt sexy charm.

Yes........that's it.

Dear Salvor-Hardon:

Why did you paint a funny face on your thumb?

Well its like this........

I really like when an AV is really that person. Gives you a glimpse into who they really are.

So what's good for the goose is good for the gander and I posted my face a few times. I tehn got a cease and dcist order from Amnesty INternational claiming my face was in fact violating human rights so in keeping with my av being "me I drew a face on my thumb, which is the sexiest part of me (so sexy in fact that acclaimed lesbian vella loves it even though it is a male thumb).

Its been a happy thumb a sad thumb, even a thumb with a back side for AV ass day, and a dead thumb......

But it is always the real me, just in convenient thumb size.

Dear Salvor-Hardon:

Thank you for the thoughtful reply. You've made my own thumbs feel more than slightly jubilant. (I am even tempted to knit a cap for yours, but alas I needs must finish a pair of socks for my very own feet.)

Hopefully it will not offend when I wish you and all of your digits a

Happy Christmas,

Perdita

My thumb wears a large if you please.

And my best wishes to your digits as well. Though I am starting to celebrate ChrismaHannaWanzaa, 12 days of christmas, 8 days of Hannakau and 8 days of Kwanzaa, 28 days of people giving me gifts!

You cheeky bugger. P.

Cantdog: "G'day, kid. Sugar free porn. Great notion."

You sure you didn't mean to say "boring" instead of "great?" That would be some typo!

Salvor: "(sincerely helene being a stellar example of such)."

Had to re-read that. Thought for a second you called me "Stella."

Abs: "I'm hear to meet exciting people.
I'm still waiting."

And so are we.

Subjoe: "That post gave me the horn. How odd."

Bet I can guess where.

English Lady: "Helene -just 'cos!"

Back atcha'.

Thanks for the replies. I honestly wasn't expecting any once I realized I jacked my own thread and there was no longer a query.

 

[Huckleman2000]

What doesn't?

BWAH!
I either need to place a standing order for new keyboards, or else look into those keyboard-condom rubber things.

 

[Svenskaflicka]

I always thought of it as LITeraryEROTICA.

 

[sincerely_helene]

I always thought of it as LITeraryEROTICA.

Yeah, I'm pretty sure that is it, but it took me years to read it that way is all I'm saying. My eyes kept seeing "Lite." The placement of the "e" was like an optical illusion when read smooshed together with "rotica."

Incedentally, I noticed earlier that typing it "liteerotica.com" as I had meant to do in the past still leads you back to literotica via another route. Clever cats!

 

[Aurora Black]

Nothing "lite" about this place. Mmmm...

I nearly ran out of Google before I stumbled upon this place.

After years of wondering what the men at the office found so fascinating about internet porn that they'd risk their jobs for a daily dose, it was the first thing I looked for when I got online at home. For the first evening or five, it was thrilling enough just being able to see penises in all colors, shapes and sizes. Naked ones! Busy ones! Pretty soon, though, I started googling for dirty stories.

Doing a keyword search for "erotic stories" produced the deeply moving tale of "FREE XXXX Big Tits Russian Girls FREE XXXX" and a stack of pop-ups that were harder to kill than vampires. I found a couple of subscription story sites like Wicked Velvet, where an occasional gem can be found in the gravel. But I didn't find porn I could love until I found Literotica. I have no idea how I found it. Maybe there was a link at Jane's Guide; maybe it was fate, rewarding me for having sat through all those godawful Southern Baptist sermons that make children feel hellbound for simply having private parts.

I went to the BDSM category by mistake, as so many people do, thinking it stands for Boyfriends Dates & Sexy Males. When I realized what the stories were really about, I was so offended I had to buy latex underthings to protect my body from being bombarded, hour after hour, with BDSM rays.

Without knowing which authors to look for, there was an awful lot of woman-hating dreck to wade through. I had nearly decided to end my relationship with internet porn when I saw a story I had to read just for the name: "Hard Boiled Dick," about a private eye who keeps nipple clamps in his desk drawer. I blame Matt Danger and Dr. M for my porn addiction. As soon as I stop reading, I'm contacting an attorney.
