To the ladies: What if a seduction was anything but seductive? What if, instead of being all sweetness and gentle persuasion, a seduction challenged and questioned you every step of the way?

It sounds more likely to end in a shouting match than a sexual encounter, doesn't it?

But...What if our hypothetical ungracious seducer met his match? What if he met a woman who could give as good as she got, and who just might - or might not - accede for her own reasons?


This thread needs a strong female voice and strong writing to have any chance of even being readable, let alone above average. Please read the intro below and PM me if you want to take on The Challenge.



-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


Sandra was a success on her own terms. In her mid-twenties, she was making a six-figure salary, and she had the office, title and administrative assistant to go with it.

She also had 80, 90 or sometimes 100-hour work weeks, but those came with the territory, especially while you were still on the way up.

Fortunately, today hadn't been so bad. She'd been able to leave the office at a reasonable hour and catch a train quickly. Now she was on the 7B bus, on the next-to-last leg of her commute back to her condo.

She wasn't really thinking about much beside getting home and decompressing: It barely registered that the bus was emptier than usual. Empty, in fact, except for herself, the driver up front, and a dark-haired man, perhaps in his mid-thirties, wearing jeans, a black sport shirt and white sneakers with no particular sense of style - not that it mattered. Certainly she didn't have to try very hard to get the attention of men who were considerably more impressive: an angular face with a certain rugged handsomeness and a build that showed some time spent at a gym weren't enough to get a second look from someone like Sandra who was constantly around guys who were good-looking, sophisticated and successful.

So, pretty much last thing that Sandra expected was to realize that the barely noticed stranger was standing by her shoulder and speaking to her...

Stranger

"A stranger comes up to a woman on a bus and, with no prelude, proposes sex."

"Simple. Physical. Detached from her life before or after the event."

"No claims about the man's ability in bed or promises of ectasy for both parties: Just the bald promise of an act."

"Should she feel anything other than shock and complete disgust?"

"Should she do anything but simply and completely repudiate such abhorent crassness?"
 
Query for clarification ...

Are you intending to write the male or female role?

You address this challenge to the ladies, but you've written the introduction from the female character's point of view.

Surely a strong woman would be able to write her own introduction within the guidelines that you set?

Just a query ...

Hi, DM.

I am, in fact, planning to play the male role.

Since the premise of the thread is fairly unusual and I had pretty much written the intro in my head, it just seemed more efficient to go ahead and set things up.

"Show, don't tell", you know.

But I apologize to those who really enjoy starting with stats and creating their characters from the ground up.

I do feel, however, that inhabiting the character of Sandra will provide no small opportunity for the female lead to be creative.

Absolutely ... lots of creative challenge ... never hurts to clarify though :)

Best of luck with the thread!
