i have asked before about writing death but i want to step things up.

I have an idea for a series that will involve blood and gore. It won’t be random and it will be integral to the story. Would I be allowed to write something like this. it will be tasteful.

Of all the infinite number of topics to write about, is this the only thing you can think of? How such a topic could be handled in a 'tasteful' way is beyond me. I sure DO NOT want to read about it. There is enough of that on the evening news each day.
If you're feeling bored during this Covid-19 epidemic I’d like to suggest
you take a peek at a story I collaborated with SueBrasil, a brilliant author.
It's about a mistake in judgment a lady makes concerning a friend, based
on the hurtful words of someone that only thinks of himself. Will that
conniving person succeed in ruining a beautiful friendship, or will she see
through his lies? It's gradually creeping up towards the 30,000 mark
and we’d love any votes or hearing whatever comments you may wish
to make. It is listed in my profile under ‘FAVOURITES’ as Apologize.

It's a bit more nuanced than that. Blood is allowed in Supernatural for vampire stories, for instance. And death is allowed as long as it isn't connected to the sex. I.e. you can write an erotic murder mystery where the victim's femme fatale widow gets jiggy with the investigating detective, just not have her murder her husband (or the detective) during the act. At least that's how it was when I was a mod. However, bloody, gory murders a la slasher movies would likely not cut it. The hypothetical murder mystery would be best to have the death occur off screen, for instance.

As far as I know, those are still the rules. We allow death, but not during sex. The detective, for instance, can shoot it out with the bad guys, but he can't shoot his secretary while she's bent over his desk. We don't like acts of violence linked to sex. Our sex scenes should be fulfilling and enjoyable by all characters involved. None of them should get gunned down, stabbed or pushed over cliffs during the sex act. There should be no link to sex if there is any blood or gore. Vampire and supernatural stories, of course, are exceptions, but even then we don't want a lot of splatter and extreme violence. Lush isn't really the place for violence, blood and gore.

i know death (not linked to sex) is allowed because i have written a story like that before and have read a few mods work like that. i was talking about the death and maybe some gore as a means to prolong the story.

you can have a battle with blood and gore and then a nurse cleaning the soldiers wounds that has led to sex. i dont see a problem with that.

anyway my idea has been scrapped for now.

That might pass but you don't want to wallow in the blood and gore, just use it to establish the character and situation.

As for as violence, blood, and gore. The blood and gore isn't going to be approved. The violence must be somewhat tame or generalized.

It's like this: Quentin Tarantino style violence, blood, and gore is a no no. But old John Wayne black and white movie style violence is probably going to be okay. As long as the violence, death, etc. is not part of the sex, and it should be important to the story line, not just thrown in there for shock and awe.

Remember this is Lushstories... love and sex. And love and sex makes for some great literature.

Yah...I just don't like the "gore" part of the "I want to write blood and gore" part of the phrasing. I just don't see how you could work death and blood and "gore" into an erotic story. Perhaps I just lack imagination.

Also? Even if you were thinking along the lines of a nurse with a patient...yah. Florence Nightingale Syndrome really isn't a thing. Maybe talk to an actual nurse before going there.

Above is a complete copy of your posting except that I have highlighted part of it. I’m sorry, but I have to disagree with you. You [B]do not[/B] lack an imagination nor is there anything wrong with it. What you and I both lack is a morbid sense of what is interesting and erotic to read. I’m thankful to hear from some of the moderators and former moderators and it seems that same lacking is rampant throughout the administration of this wonderful website. I hope it always stays that way.

I agree with your statement about anyone thinking that would make an interesting topic, to go talk to a nurse that has been there and done that. Or talk to any of our other first responders that have to take torn and mangled bodies out of a crash site. Some of them get physically sick afterwards or have nightmares.

Much of erotica is in that category, though. Teacher-student happens far more in erotica than in real life (and that is very much a good thing), too, but that's doesn't stop us from writing it.

Though I will say that health care professional with patient is not one I'm likely to do. Hospitals and sickness and such creep me out too much to be sexy. I have one that I have flirted with about a husband getting in on with the home care nurse looking after his ailing wife but I have let it lie. I manage IT for a home care company and know a lot of health care workers in that field so just doesn't feel right.

Yeah, how someone can even have an idea that a nurse might even slightly be interested in a patient or resident is beyond me...when I'm at work, I'm there to work. It's not fun. Scary most times, dreading when things might go wrong. Maybe some nurses have done something like that before? But I'd rather be dead before that. Job stress is too real to act like being a nurse is sexy for even half a second...it really, really isn't.

Yup. Like I said, maybe talk to an actual nurse before writing some kind of romantic nurse/patient or nurse/physician story. Yes, herds of residents arrive every July, and yes, herds of them have "naughty nurse" fantasies, but...no. As to getting it on with an actual patient? He must be bloody well kidding. Besides violating assorted ethics laws, yah...in my case, my patients tend to be unconscious.

So yah. Work is work. Work is not romance. Nurses are professionals and, at least in my case on my floor, treated as key members of the care team. I'm not interested in my patient's dick...I'm interested in his I/O and his SpO2.

In my professional career as a diagnostic virologist my only physical contact with my patients was with their body fluids — blood, faeces, mucus, saliva and urine (technically blood and gore are the same) — and swabs taken from various orifices. These were perfect for finding out what infectious disease they had since we carry viruses in our blood and excrete them from those same orifices. To prevent myself or my staff from becoming infected themselves, everyone would have been taught a proper aseptic technique. Similarly the doctors, nurses and phlebotomists who took the specimens would have also acted in the same highly professional manner - breaches of this professional code is not only unethical but can also put patients' lives at risk by increasing the risk of cross infection.

I could give you examples where deliberate breaches of this professional code of conduct has had catastrophic consequences. It hard enough to prevent accidental transmission of infections, but to wilfully transgress the patient/carer relationship is unforgivable and should be punished by dismissal at the very least.

i would like to revive this post.

i recently wrote a story. no blood, no gore, just a death at the end, pretty integral to the story.

so i'm asking once again to all mods out there. am i allowed to write a story where a character dies/gets killed, but the death is not part of the sex.

have the rules changes since the last time this discussion has been talked about? or has it remained the same?

my story has been rejected on the basis od the death, but the od has been very good and they are ow reviewing the rules to see if it allowed.

same rules. we just had a newer mod on that particular story. he's on the same page now. in the future, it would be quicker and easier if you simply contacted a senior mod, like me, and inquire - i don't always catch all the posts right away. thanks! smile

You can’t truly call yourself peaceful unless you are capable of violence. If you’re not capable of violence, you’re not peaceful. You’re harmless.

Hi Sean.

If you look at our terms and conditions, you'll see that what we disallow are stories which are the equivalent of a snuff movie.

Where a death is part of a plot, that's absolutely fine.
