This is a great example of why stories should not be restricted to just one category in my mind. I know there are tags as well, but those have not the same weight as categories. To what single category does a story, or poem, belong to that equally touches on the subjects of multiple categories? I think that letting the author pick just one out of the many that may fit doesn't serve the purpose of the categories, as those are there mainly for the readers I'd say.
It might seem obvious that a story about a blow-job belongs in the category 'Oral sex'. But what if it's a guy giving the blow-job? Should it then be in 'Gay sex'? What if this guy is a crossdresser? What if he's giving the blow-job to a transsexual? What if their relationship is that of Dom/sub? What if the main characters are of different races and the story is set in a historical context, the Stonewall riots perhaps? The restriction of one category per story clearly doesn't cut it.
Spot on.

Part one : Categorisation of stories / poems
First of all, let me say that I think that the different categories for stories is great - it means that if all you are interested in reading at a particular time is one type of story then you do t need to look too far to fill your boots.
My problem is with the poetry options.
To my recollection there are only two - erotic and love. No Lesbian, BDSM etc etc
But sometimes there's a need to say more than just that it's an erotic poem.
I've just had a poem returned because, amongst other things, I had posted it under Hardcore rather than as an erotic poem. Personally I feel that being buggered by a dominatrix fits much better in the former category.
Can we not have more category choices for poetry - or just allow poems under all categories?
Thanks for considering - I'll post part 2 after this has been answered.
Edit : been put in my place by PM.

MORE PORN!. and kittens. kittens make everything better. mew.
Can't help but agree that the world needs more good porn. And more kittens. And the amount of times that I've had to remove a kittens claws from my backside at an inopportune moment....
As much as I love porn - almost as much as I love kittens, I'm not sure you've thought this through. They just want to play, and believe me, when you're naked you're vulnerable.
