Someone please explain me the type of stories for 'Loving Wives'

[Tharkibudda]

So I wrote a seduction story of a housewife by the milkman which I've planned for few more parts.

Unfortunately I got so many 1 stars and negative feedback. I'm now confused on what "loving wives" mean. I thought it's a sarcastic way to describe cheating wives. But I think most of the readers have a different idea and they are pissed that I wrote about adultery.

It's like going to a Metallica concert and complaining about the sound.

...wow, I know the forum anti-spam system loves breaking URLs but that's the first time I've seen it do that to a Literotica story.

You are quite correct. It is the place for stories about cheating wives. Unfortunately, some people who have a bee in their bonnet about that kind of story have chosen to hang out there and read stories they know they're going to hate and complain about them.

Half the time they don't even bother to read the story. If is about a cheating wife and there is a reconciliation between the husband and wife, then they just automatically 1bomb the story and leave a nasty comment about what a wimp and a cuck the husband is.

Now if it's a BTB - Burn the Bitch, they then read the story and tear it apart on how there are plot holes and such... Although they do tend not to 1 bomb those.

Loving Wives has become a snake pit.

I believe the category is correct, but the readers in that category are somewhat demanding and generally vicious. Only the bravest of writers post there - most of us just stay away.

You can repost your story and change the category. Or you can turn off the comment/votes, I believe. Some of the more experienced writers here can probably give a lot more details about that is the best way forward.

I believe some writers actually have a separate Lit profile for posting to Loving wives, in order to prevent the 1-bombers from infecting your other stories.

To be clear and accurate, it's not true that readers of LW stories are "somewhat demanding and generally vicious." It's accurate to say that readership is sharply divided between those who enjoy cheating wife/cuckoldry stories and those who hate them. Those who hate them go out of the way to downvote and savagely comment on the stories they hate.

On the good side, the story received several positive comments. The story definitely is posted in the correct category.

Agreed, but I think it's fair to say that in no other category is a story almost guaranteed such invective and one-bombs.

Ada Stuart's suggestion about maintaining a separate nom-de-plume is probably a good one.

By the way I feel morally wrong to put it in erotic Coupling or other sections because the main theme is an innocent wife getting seduced and cheating her marital vows. It won't have same effect if she was unmarried woman..

My Editor too felt bad because my ratings was tanking at 1.23 stars rhe first 2 days with so many negative comments..

Now slowly it's rising up but our mind automatically clicks on stories which are rated high and ignore ones which are rated low..

True, but less true in Loving Wives, because the readers there know that stories like these receive much lower than normal scores. When you post these kinds of stories in LW you just have to adjust your score expectations and ignore the hostility, if you can.

It's still broken. Looks like the forum software has decided that "************" is spam and needs to be censored, even when it's pointing to a legit Literotica story.

edit: that ****** was indian, dash, wife.

 

[gordo12]

I've never seen Lit break an internal link like that either. It doesn't like ************s.

Edit: Yep definitely doesn't like Indian dash wifes

The OP should go on the technical support forum and report it. It's obviously in their banned word list.

Yesterday I tried adding a tag of "baby" to a story where the wife is pregnant. No go. Seems they're getting a little overzealous.

As far as the comments went I didn't see anything remarkable. I wondered if you'd deleted a bunch? The score is ok for a new writer in LW.

Get used to it. It's a baptism of fire in there.

Ah, yes, Simon, I think your description was a lot better than mine Thank you for clarifying

There are some good comments as well in between, so I guess the category works as long as you manage to ignore the insults

Hm, you know, I suddenly feel tempted to give that category a chance just to read the comments - but I seem to remember that Chloe has tried that already

The milkman? Literally classic plot. Love it.

Nice analogy.

I could see the interpretation of "sarcastic" given the actual description, but the category description focuses on the wives – not the couples – so it appears to be intended more as "provocative" than sarcastic.

Could they change it? Possibly defuse that? Sure, but after 20 years it would break both the categorization system they already have and the paradigm the rest of the writers have invested in it.

It's a little like Literotica's own Stockholm Syndrome. Read these forums, you'll see plenty of writers saying "I hate it!" and "Don't take it, I love it!" in virtually the same breath.

Ultimately, the problem boils down to why some people read (and comment) on those stories. Some people read for the content of the story itself. Other people (likely the incel crowd) get off reacting to it rather than the actual content. These Anonymous holy warriors get off in their crusade against you. No amount of reason, no amount of warnings or disclaimers is going to open their eyes because that's not what it appears to be about for them.

Like some other writers have mentioned, all you can do is lower your expectations for civil discourse and wade into the shitstorm. Good luck.

Man, I wish there was like an automatic warning for writing posting in LW for the first time. That's gotta suck thinking you're going out for an erotic picnic and then finding that you've fallen into the bog of eternal stench.

If you really want to piss the trolls off, have the abused wife kill the husband and have the cops call it self defense.

Have you ever heard the statement "it's possible to fit a whole light bulb in your mouth without having it shatter, but it's impossible to pull the same light bulb out without breaking it?" And for a split second, you're tempted to see if it's true?

That's how I reacted to your post.

That's nice, I thought you guys were a myth.

Oh yeah, there are writers that do write in loving wives. I even had a side business a while back where I rented shark suits to newbies that wanted to venture into the snake pit. I had to stop renting. Too many suits were returned in shreds.

Short answer

There are many forms or LW stories

There used to be readers for every one of those type stories

After years of bullying and posting hate filled misogynistic, homophobic, racist comments, threats and spew...many decent writers have left and many fans went with them.

While this site spends its time chasing spam or deleting anything that doesn't agree with their personal opinion or politics they have let an entire category become a cess pool of raw hate.

I give credit to the few writers who are still trying to create decent stories there and to the readers hanging in there trying to enjoy a story and ignoring all the hate.

For the rest? They don't deserve to be pissed on let alone acknowledged.

This has potential to become a hobby.

I did a burn the bastard where after the wife caught the husband cheating she drugged him, tied him to a chair to watch her fuck their landscaper and put a shock collar on him so any time he tried to look away she'd zap him.

The comments of course were very welcoming but my pervading thought is if I had a husband do that to his wife it would be in the LW hall of fame.

It's pretty much the INCEL crowd.

And of course you would know because you write absolutely nothing there.
