Story rejected

Verrrry special.

...and stomp their feetses, and yell, "It's not fair! My story's different, and special!"

Damn it. I did it all wrong. I added lines which made it clear the characters were really older, asked to have it reconsidered, and now I wait. Oh yes, I wait.

The feetses stomping would have been more fun, less work -- and less of a wait since it already would have been rejected again.

I have actually had three stories rejected for content. One was of the violent anal rape of a man by two other men. Another was of a woman who used a live snake as a dildo. That was rejected as bestiality. The other was the one I mentioned earlier with the man and his sixteen year old bride.

On the first one, I had read stories of rape and thought mine would pass, although it was just too violent. On the second one, I have always thought of bestiality as being a woman and her dog or a sheep herder and one of his flock. The snake was just a live dildo.

As for the sixteen year old girl, I posted the story a couple of years ago and later I did some editing and resubmitted it. It had been accepted the first time but it was rejected the second time because of her age. I thought that the non-erotic nature of the deflowering and the fact that it involved a husband and wife should have made a difference but they did not. I changed her age to 18 but it took something away from the story. An 18 year old getting married is not unusual but a 16 year old being pushed into marriage by her parents is, and the story depended on her youth and inexperience.

Edited to add: I felt I had to leave the description of their first sex in the story because it demonstrated his character and helped describe the spousal relationship.

I have a novel in progress that is a sequel and it will go into greater lengths, and he will be a minor character in the story. It has been in progress for over a year and still has a long way to go.

The snake was just a live dildo.

I wonder if dancing with a snake in a sexual way would be considered "bestiality"? (Thinking "From Dawn to Dusk" here...) or if it was the actual penetration that made it unacceptable?

Ahhh, all the fine lines in smut! <grin>

...and say "why is tenticle porn allowed and not my tasteful love afair with my dog?" and then "why can we [write about] fuck a dead corps, and rape our mothers, but we can't show two 15 year old kids getting it on" and make other compariesons to how what *is* allowed is much worse than what we wrote/want to write/want to read here.

Changed My Mind!

My story with the extra special lines, to indicate they were over 18, got rejected again. The two girls refer to having wanted each other at 13 and than have a fantasy of what that would have been like. Oops.

Yesterday I was all about a rule being a rule -- today I want an exception to be made! Nah, I accept it. And can't change it without gutting the story. I just didn't look at it from that perspective, since the girls are of age in the story.

From the other point of view, I recall a story that was blatently child porn posted to Literotica.

The author cleverly changed the ages of the protagonists to 18, but throughout the story they acted and talked like 12 year olds. And the physical descriptions made it obvious that they were children.

Still, the author had changed the ages to meet the requirements.

Don't ask me what the story was, I don't remember.

I could see people doing that.

I'm excited about posting my stories here, and I find it interesting how I need to reevaluate them based on different rules and a different readership.

I've been reposting older stories, but I hope to write something specifically for here soon. Something that meets all the rules.

I don't post bestiality BUT:

I wrote about a woman who wanted to have sex with her unicorn. He tongued out her pussy and then she got under him and took his cock. Once I had made it clear he was a unicorn, I wrote a story about sex between a horse and a woman.

I wrote a story about a woman having sex with her husband, a werewolf, while he was in the wolf mode. He was not a monster; he was still her loving husband, but in the form of a wolf. Then I wrote a story about a woman having sex with a big dog, with him tonguing her pussy and fucking her as a dog fucks. These are both in the non-human category.

well, I beleive you- however.

i've known a few adults who act about 12, and even some who look about that age. Then again, I've known 12 year olds who look and act like adults.

I'm probably about as egotistical (ie selfish) as you can find. for instance when the Horsey mentioned the no lists arguement I immediately assumed that it was I that was being referenced. Made me feel good, right up until the point that I realised that the reference was somewhat satyrical and that the horsey is not that kind of animal without warning, with regard to others.

I'm pretty sure (as Cant I think mentioned) that any kind of measurement for selfishness has to be from anecdotal evidence rather than clinical trial.

Bearing in mind the first paragraph, I can recall three events off the top of my head when I stopped my vehicle because I had to aid someone I thought was in trouble. Once to take someone home who I knew to be lost (a dementia sufferer) one who was 'just chilling man' (walked away laughing from that one) and one who had apparently collapsed on the street but on investigation was laid out with his arm down a stop-cock plate attempting to turn off the mains to his business.

Not one of those situations gave me any sense of happiness or happy self rightousness. That is, in all three situations I did what I thought had to be done without any other concern.

Perhaps I'm the exception that proofs the rule but then, it just happens that on each occasion I was travelling with my brother who had exactly the same thoughts (we'd discussed each thing after they occurred)

So two examples of altruism and I'm quite certain (by definition) we are not unique.

As to championing cold logic (and I still have no idea as to where selfishness is a proven part of anyone's makeup) doesn't logic preclude being drawn into returning perceived insults? I'm pretty sure there's a particular use of veiled insult or threat which means that the logic is dissipated and therefor the arguement lost at that point.

One more thing, from way back in the thread: On principles and action warranted by them.

An old East European story (claimed by the world and their uncle) considers the difference between participation and commitment. In a breakfast of bacon and eggs the chicken participates but the pig is committed.

Paul wrote James that all the God talk without acting on it was outrageous. Duty is a motivator, too, and not just when other people are watching. It grows from the sense of community and from ethics, largely, and in each other's context, as always.

Question

I know that the characters in stories involving in sexual situations must be at least 18. The question I have is about a story i'm writing regarding a personal experience I had back in high school involving masturbation with a friend.

There was no sexual contact between us, but I understand masturbation to be a sexual situation regardless. So my question is if I don't mention age at all, just the grade of the characters in school, would my story be rejected because it implies an age range? Do I need to clearly indicate what the ages are of the characters so that it is obvious that they are at least 18?

I would very much like to tell the story as closely as I remember it, but I don't want to break any rules in the process. So If I can leave some details vague so that I don't contradict how it actually happened and still play by the rules, I would be glad to do it.

I'm still ironing out the details, so any help at this point would be appreciated.

If you make them seniors in high school, you should be fine. Anything less will most likely be rejected.

Even it you describe them as seniors, it might be a good idea to include some comment that says they are 18. Maybe something like: "It was easier, now that we had turned 18 and could go into the adult book store."

Awesome, thanks for the help guys. I made a few changes and I think it still turned out well. So how long does it take for a story to be approved anyway?

It usually takes about a week, or slightly less. With the Valentine's Day contest going on, it has been taking longer for entries not in the contest, but that should change soon.

I do hope it gets accepted. I'd like to see what people think of my first submission.

I just want to say that this thread was worth resurrecting for this post alone:

"... and it's art. And in Watashiwa it's legal for 14 year old virgin Siamese twins to have anal sex with The Wild Man of Borneo. This is censorship!"

Out of curiosity, I looked up my first post. It has an average score of 4.57, with 23 votes and 21,507 views. It has no PC. I submitted it almost three years ago when there was no such thing as a PC.

Box - the submission to which I referred had nothing to do with stories on Lit.
