If a wife is being blackmailed into prostitution, which is hotter, her doing this on the sly, without her family knowing OR with her husband forced to act as her pimp, while she screws each of these men in their marital bed?

 

[EmilyMiller]

Is neither an option?

 

[nice90sguy]

I'd love to be blackmailed into being a pimp. Win/win

Why don’t they just watch Belle de Jour together and call it a day?

If it’s important to you, they could all watch it on the marital bed.

EmilyMiller So that scenario is not in your balliwick???​

 

[onehitwanda]

I doubt it's in most people's bailiwick, no.

I’m too embarrassed to write about that one time I was blackmailed into prostitution. First, they couldn’t find any stilettos that fit my doll feet. Then I caught consumption and it was a whole big scene.

I don't tell you often enough how much I adore you.

Ballwick. A device used to ensure that candies burn evenly, woven from pubic hair.

Do it again

It's only gay if the balliwicks touch

I think the former.

To start with, let's accept the premise rather than get judgy about it and say things like "neither" or "you shouldn't be fantasizing about that." People should be able to fantasize about whatever they want and to talk about their fantasies in this space without other people getting judgy about it and trying to shut the discussion down.

The former, in my opinion, is more interesting and erotic than the latter, because it's simpler and concentrates the erotic tension on the wife rather than spreading it out over the wife and the husband. It has more focus. It's less messy. It creates a neater and in my opinion more satisfying and erotic narrative. This is just my own erotic taste, admittedly, but I think stories are more erotic when they lean hard into one kink than when they try to do too much.

If you want to write a story about a husband being blackmailed into pimping out his wife, that's a whole different thing. But I think it's a better story if you choose one or the other rather than trying to do both.

Dude,

First, welcome. Second, your question was kinda apropos of nothing. Particularly for the very first thing you posted here. Maybe some background. Are you writing this story? Do you want to read this story? Are you looking for recommendations?

If you're asking in general, you probably want the General Board or another of the subforums. If you're asking us as writers, be prepared for a heated debate about the Loving Wives and Non-Consent categories, their readers, voting patterns, viewing numbers, comments and probably a few other factors.

I'd suggest you look at it from a different perspective. What is hotter to you? You're the one writing the story, and there are people in this forum that write in one or more of the dozens of categories this site offers. You're kind of walking into an ice-cream shop and shouting, 'Hey, what's the best flavor?'(Dark chocolate with Heath Bar mixed in, BTW.)

This advice has been given many times by many writers, you should write for yourself. That's when you'll get the truest version of the story you want to tell.

Good luck, and welcome to the show.

The former also has secrecy and the possibility of being discovered - which are both sexy, if handled well.

 

[Five_Inch_Heels]

None of the above.

No force.

No coercion.

No manipulation of any kind.

I suspect you underestimate how difficult it is, and the toll it will take on you.

Some people - based on the story ideas forum - find blackmail erotic. I'm not one of them.

 

[MillieDynamite]

I think that @SimonDoom has hit the trope nail on the head. Being forced to sneak around to pay ransom to some jerkwad is a dish best served for one, leaving the husband clueless and blameless. A few questions spring to mind: what is she being blackmailed over, and does she love her husband more than life? If so, is this issue she's being blackmailed over big enough to end them? Or is it possible she's being forced to do this to protect the husband from some misdeed of his own? That'd be the best thing; it's all the hubby's fault.

Ballwick. A device used to ensure that candies burn evenly, woven from pubic hair.

Based on the word itself, it must only be male pubic hair.

Too bad I shave.

 

[gunhilltrain]

Too bad I shave.

It grows back. Next time, just save the hair for whatever company needs it for Ballwick.

Are you writing for youself? YOU decide.

Are you writing for readers? Both, depending on the reader(s)

I'm writing a story with precisely these scenarios, except there's no blckmail and the husband isn't forced to act as her pimp. Really, it absolutely depends on HOW you write it, and you will find readers for either or both scenarios. Sleaze? Porn? Erotica? Romantic? It can be any of those and more. It all depends on you as a writer and you can make either or both as hot as you care to.

Neither is hotter in and of itself. It's all in the reader(s) head and it's up to you to draw the word pictures that suck them in and blow their socks off.

Writing skills, dude. Writing skills.
