I actually enjoy a story that shocks me. Characters that behave differently than myself. Fiction should be a place to experience things maybe you can't in real life.

Yes.
Quote by KimmiBeGood
are we spreading hate speech if a character spouts it?


No.

Three reasons I can think of:
1.If we are writing fiction - particularly if we are writing about anything remotely resembling the real world - then, inevitably, we will find ourselves describing actions, words and attitudes that are morally questionable, even reprehensible. It is entirely reasonable for a writer to present such things in fiction, and leave the reader to make up his/her own mind about the moral rectitude of them.
2. If we self-censored everything unpleasant from our stories, most of them would end up very dull indeed.
3. If we want to write a story effectively condemning any particular behaviour or attitude, we can often make our point more strongly by showing that attitude uncensored. So many of the greatest moral crusading novels of the twentieth century (I am thinking, for example, of To Kill a Mockingbird, or The Grapes of Wrath) made their point by uncompromisingly depicting man's inhumanity to man, in quite shocking ways They are examples to admire, and, if appropriate, emulate.

I like it to be honest, it adds to the feeling of the story and characterization. I will happily use google if I don't know the word, indeed I love writers like Tam and Wannabewordsworth when they introduce me to new words. And I do like it when French-Canadians like Chris put some French into their stories.

Mind you some have suggested that even my English is well, lets just say a bit foreign. Besotted, bush (as in forest wilderness,) doona for instance; rooting and pashing too. Sometimes I am not even aware how regional some of my expressions are lol. And I really appreciate that Lush doesn't like other sites enforce a consistency in spelling, I always use humour and arse and never humor and ass.

I used a couple of words of New Zealand Maori in Starting Over, which which seemed to work for readers; that or else Laura was the only reader who got it and everyone else was too polite to say. Sometimes there are even trans-Atlantic differences, some Europeans didn't really know the word zucchini which featured in my Zucchini and the art of Environmental Maintenance, being used to saying courgette for that vegetable.


Agree entirely. Some people don't like non-English words (or even obscure accents or dialects) in stories, and complain about it - but I think it can add immensely to character, setting and atmosphere. The world is full of linguistic and cultural variety, and often it is part of the job of a writer to reflect that. It doesn't bother me if I don't understand the exact meaning of the non-English/non-standard text. If it's done well, the author's intention (which may simply be to create an aural "atmosphere") will come across. If the writer hasn't translated everything word-for-word, it may be that the exact meaning is of secondary importance. And if I am really curious, I can look it up - the same way I look up bits of English vocabulary which I have not come across before.

Some recent reads of mine, which provide cases in point: Henke's Singing of the Cicadas, where the use of French contributes massively to the Provencal atmophere. And Piquet's Kittyflower, set in Greece.

This story of mine includes Latin, French & German, and I don't think it matters if you don't understand those languages:
Metamorphoses
See what you think...

I fucking loved all the cunt in this fast-paced, witty crazy cunt-filled adventure. And it's only chapter one. Of cunt. Just the cunt. So much fucking cunt. Am I using the word 'cunt' too much? Don't care. Fucking cuntastic with twists and turns the whole way through.

Quote by KimmiBeGood
Grusha, quit posting in forums and get the next part out cause Kimmi wants to know what the FUCK is going on with that cunt!!!

Quote by CarltonStJames
Me waiting on chapter 2 like:

Patience, guys - all good cunts come to those who wait!

Unlike in Alison, where I wrote several chapters at a time before publishing, I wanted to get this Cunt done fairly promptly before I got cold feet - so Cunt chapter 2 is still in production. You'll just have to find an alternative to Cunt for a while, sorry...

wannabe smut-writer, Violet, whose bright pink, silky smooth wavy hair sat tied with a frayed green elastic hair tie in a messy bun atop her petite head, her pinker pert lips pursed with subtle admiration for the anonymous, witty writers of the tawdry, steamy Lush website, a dash of dewy perspiration leaking from her makeup-less eye-holes.

You forgot my favourite adjective, "fucking". Can't have too much of that...
Dear Lushies,

I wasn't intending to submit anything to the current competition. But then I went and got my dusty copy of the Eddas off my shelf, and felt inspired to try my hand at some alliterative Norse-style verse. The result is here:

A Little Ljóðaháttr

If you like Norse epics, Teutonic sagas, Wagnerian operas, or Marvel movies (!) - or even if you have a secret abiding affection for eternal love (tell it not in Gath!) - you may enjoy it...

Here's some feedback so far:

"Your gift for creative 'pastiche' (in its true sense of celebrating an artistic style) is once more employed to utterly exquisite effect... brilliant" (naughtyannie)
"What a great piece, a tale of desire and courage, tragedy and love, and of belief and a willing embrace of fate all in verse... Brilliantly done!" (Stormdog)
"eloquent presentation of a universal truth, one that compels repeat visits to soak in the artistry" (FirstBlush)
"gorgeous, stunning ... fabulous" (CuriousAnnie)
"unique entry to this comp by a unique, brilliant writer" (KimmiBeGood)

Sorry, I know this is an "ask the gals" thread, so I hope you will forgive me for intruding with my male perspective. When I first read this thread, I was quite surprised, as my partner comes again and again through intercourse. In fact, it's the lion's share of what we do, because it is what we both love doing. (I just wish I could come as many times in a row as she can!)

So, are we doing anything special? Can't answer definitively, of course, but here are a couple of thoughts:

1. Interesting that in this thread intercourse is often contrasted with clitoral stimulation. Our experience is that they go together. When fucking at the right angle, the base of my cock grinds against her clit, which stimulates her and - in due course - helps her to come. A different angle of fucking allows my cock to directly stimulate her G-spot area. Both of these are achievable mish or cowgirl or sideways facing; not so easy doggy, or spoons obviously. So we often have "fuck or grind?" conversations when we're at it. Sex becomes a bit of a dance, a process of give-and-take.

2. Time helps (short term). Whilst I am "ready to fuck" at the drop of a hat, my partner takes longer to get going. That's fine. It's good for our loving relationship that one has to hold back to give the other more time.

3. Time helps (long term). We've been together, and exclusive, a long time. That means we have been through all sorts of highs and lows, sexual and otherwise, together - which builds patience. And we've learnt to read each other's signals pretty well.

I wrote a story which incorporates some of what I'm talking about:
Our Porge
Of it, one mod said: "Creative, totally unexpected and all the more appreciated. Fantastic writing!"
But another said: "It kind of smacked of a conservative manifesto."
Go figure...

(Just to be clear: I am of course not denigrating more varied sexual expressions. Just saying that vanilla is sometimes a really good flavour.)

Just my ...

Do Recommended Reads for collaborations not get to update the RR badge number? I would have thought they would, but I noticed the count on my collaborator's badge didn't go up. Mine, however, as I submitted story, did go up. He hasn't mentioned to me, I just noticed and was curious. Is this the intent or a coding booboo?

Ditto for me. Hers has been counted, but not mine.
Piano, professionally.

(And some other instruments which, if revealed here, would make me just a touch too identifiable...)
