\"GayThe Sydney Morning Herald has featured an article about the popularity of male-male erotic fiction<\/a> (slash, yaoi or gay male romance) with straight women. It features quotes from me, using my Louise Lush pseudonym. The journalist (Alyssa McDonald) has treated the subject well, talking to various different sources and not descending into sex-negative language.<\/p>\n

When Alyssa contacted me she wasn’t particularly well informed about the subject. Her main source of info was the Billion Wicked Thoughts<\/em> book, which I’ve already ranted about here<\/a>. I sent her a bunch of links and gave her my less-than-perfect opinion about M\/M erotica (it’s not really my thing). She has written a really good summary of it and also including both my and Suraya’s criticism of the “Wicked Thoughts” book.<\/p>\n

The comments are interesting. There’s a lot of people who are shocked by it, matched by an equal number of slash fans.<\/p>\n

I do want to include more male-male erotica at For The Girls and create a gay category on Ms Naughty. My problem is that, as I said, it’s not really my bag, although that’s no good reason to not include it. It just means that I’ve got to learn to spot good content and to get to know what’s out there.<\/p>\n

Also, in the past I had a “no gay” rule for the Ms Naughty linklist. This was because the adult industry used to dismiss “for women” content as being another gay niche, refusing to believe that women actually looked at porn. So I worked hard to distinguish my site from gay ones. It was the same with For The Girls. I’ve since learned how much women do enjoy gay and male-male content. It’s now just a matter of finding the time to create the category and find good content.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
