When Anons Admit To Criminality

[Wifetheif]

Today I received an unusual comment to my story, Annette It is a story about a shy and very conservative new bride who confesses to her new husband that he was NOT the first guy to see her naked. At age eighteen she attended a lavish wedding as a bridesmaid. No one told her the punch was spiked. A southern "gentleman" saw to it that the drunken innocent made it back to her room where she promptly passed out. The "gentleman" stripped her down completely and our innocent teenager woke up naked the next morning in her hotel bed. Our new groom obsesses about this event and decides to drug his new bride so that he can reenact it. A short slice of life tale. While my story is very loosely based upon a real event it is more than ninety percent fiction. Today, an anonymous poster confessed to an entire series of crimes. On his honeymoon his new wife said the only way she'd fuck another guy was if she was drunk or unconscious. My poster intimated that he has spent years drugging his wife and letting other guys take advantage of her! Now since it's anonymous there is no way to trace it. The language however, the bad grammar an misspellings lead me to believe that my poster was bragging and telling the truth!
Have any of you had commentators admit to something shockingly illegal.? I don't mean underage drinking or drug use. If my poster is sincere he really should be on his way to jail for several decades. I specialize in writing non-consent but it is FICTION!

"I've been banging my sister since she was 9" was one that made me question why I was writing erotica.

Yes, I occasionally get such comments. Mostly on other story sites, though.

It's fiction, of course, but it's hardly surprising that such comments are given as feedback on such stories.

I remember a comment I received on a father daughter story that featured some rough-but consensual-sex. The guy said "The reminds me of how it started with my daughter, except she fought it hard for awhile, then gave up trying."

Initial reaction to things like this is "What if this person did this?" and at least for me leads to the moment of "Do we encourage this with our stories here?" But I quickly shrug off the latter, these people were broken before they ever found our stories, as to the former? I lean towards hoping they're just blowing smoke. If you ever saw the original version of the incest is best thread in another forum, it would be enough to cure any same person from reading or writing in that category.

The internet's anonymity-especially here where you don't even have to create an account to comment-leads to people getting a kick out of making shit up, and also a place of catharsis where they admit things they'd never say to another person. There's confession threads on Redshit and other forums.

Do we know if they're lying or not? No. Do we want to know.... probably not.

One of the hazards of posting stories on a site where anyone can comment.

I've received some disturbing comments to incest stories that suggest illegal activity happened. When that happens, I choose not to engage. I try to make it clear that my stories are fantasy stories, not trips down memory lane.

I think you have to take the philosophical attitude that you have no control over your readers. You take them as they come, so to speak. We have no idea whether they are spilling the beans or just telling tall tales. I'd rather not know.

Most of the Penthouse Letters you get in comments and feedback are probably complete hogwash, ( or abridged versions of stories rejected by Lit for content ) but it doesn't make them any less creepy. I've had more than my fair share across all three pen names and three different sites.

I'd guess that some proportion of these tales are made-up for the shock value.

It's worth noting that some estimates are that about 22% or Americans have a mental health problem, and perhaps 5% have a serious issue. A lot of these people, I'd guess, read and comment here. The fact that somebody would get a thrill out of lying about crimes doesn't surprise me. It also wouldn't surprise me that some of them did commit the crimes they are confessing to.

 

[mildlyaroused]

I would guess that most of these comments are... well... bullshit!

The same sorts of anonymous 'brags' pop up on porn websites, on forums like Quora, in other erotica sites - you name it. Usually in relation to taboo subjects like incest. I think writing these comments is just another way for people to fulfill and explore their kinks. When they comment, they are adopting the persona of someone who genuinely gets to indulge in their fantasy. Maybe there is the occasional sprinkle of truth around, but not much.

Well, it might be true. But this sounds like the shit a teenager would do for shits and giggles.

On the other hand since I write a lot of non-con, I don't want to inspire them to mimic some of my scenarios. No one wants to be John Fowles. His novel, "The Collector" inspired real-world copycats including serial killers!

The loons make all kinds of “confessions” in comments, but rest assured it’s pure fantasy.

I quickly delete anything that crosses the line into lunacy, which has probably been a couple of hundred comments on my 9 stories over 10 years.

 

[HeyAll]

It's like I always say, people type their fantasies into the comment sections. Doesn't mean they want to do it, or that it happened.

For my corporate stories, I sometimes get comments talking about past experience being an office slut. One person does it every so often.

To be honest, one of my recent stories was based on 2 particular comments that people left on my older stories. I read the comments and thought "that's a really good way of phrasing that" and made it into a story.

For incest it's less subtle. People will write "reminds me of the time I..." and then says outlandish stuff.

They live vicariously through it. Or it gives them a brief moment of fame to have their comment read by many people.

Just the one or two on that rhymimg trans story. Who cares if they're real or fake? Being anon gives people a chance to come clean, and often there's no real clout in it to really make something up, shock value or not. It really doesn't mattet that much to me the validity of these claims and stories.

 

[OffNSFW]

I choose to believe that people are simply fantasizing in the open for their own J.O. purposes. I haven't seen a compelling reason to interpret them otherwise.

 

[lisaharlot]

At least report to mods. There are anonymous tip lines for this sort of thing too.

I’m certain law enforcement agencies and social media accounts who do stings for clicks have a presence on lit.
