    I have forbidden my wife from reading it. Not because its kinky or nowt - I just dont want her being another drone ploughing her way through the latest franchise-ready trilogy 'phenomenon'.

    What are you going to do if she doesn't obey - spank her?

    she will obey. she vowed to obey on our wedding day. if she doesn't she will be in contempt of God who presided over our holy union and she will enter eternal damnation.
  • she will enter eternal damnation.

    Fair enough. Is that like the Red room?

    Mine read it. Was quite entertained by it for a few days. Then she bought the other two.

    The, er, tool hasn't been out of its box since. :(

    Do you chain her to the (ironing) board and flog her till she's finished?
    What do you mean you think 64cm is a big frame?

    I have to say I find the whole 'self-indulgent titillation' side of this craze rather sad. If you get the horn spank one out over the net and be done with it...why would one want to read some god awful shite book for days, and go one about how 'empowered' one feels doing it. It is the kind of crap that makes me glad I am a bloke.

    Women don't watch porn and find themselves left with a need to spank one out, or tap one out if we are being accurate. I'm told that women find things other than porn (i.e. visual sexual imagery) sexually stimulating.

    It's a book. I wondered what all these references to "50 shades of grey" were about.

    Like I say, I can't comment on 50 Shades of Grey directly as I've not read it, but it's amazing how many people will read a book, think, 'This is crap, I could've written that', but neglect to acknowledge that not only did they not write it, but that there is clearly a talent to writing successful fiction beyond offering decent prose.

    Having enjoyed the film, I read the first Hunger Games novel recently and the writing style is painfully dull. I believe the Twighlight books are equally poor, but the difference between the authors of those books and the likes of you and I is that they had an idea, they wrote it up and they found themselves a market, while we sat on our arses saying 'This is crap, I could've written that!'

    PS. I am in no doubt that 50 Shades is garbage, but I'm glad it is helping to make erotic literature mainstream.

    The thing with the books is that they've absolutely revolutionised publishing and has scared the pants of all the major publishers. That a book can have such phenominal international sales without a major publishing deal while only being available electronically means anyone can have a go.

    Inspiring. Unlike Anastasia.

    Kind of ironic too, given that it was only a couple of years ago now that the major publishing houses shut down their 'adult literature' departments (despite the fact that they were making good money out of them).

    Working in an Office with Approx 13 females with 8-9 having read or reading this my day is filled with talk of this.

    Although when one very attractive young ladie started reading some out I had to walk away for fear of having to splash my crotch with cold water.

    There are however so many times you can hear old ladies talking about butt plugs, ladies special time of the month in the same context as sex, sore female genatalia due to riding crops etc etc etc

    Should have just gone to the toilet to knock one out. It also works if you want to pass the time of day and you have nothing to do! Or if you're having a really bad/stressful day... - I once walked in on a Chinese bloke doing this very thing...

    Where the hell do you work!?
    I've never met anyone who uses a butt plug. What the hell is 'riding crops'?

    AND

    Special time of the month in the context of sex means don't go anywhere near there, right? RIGHT! Because that's the rules.

    Is that because you were not in a toilet but a glory hole?

    a mate of mine (not me - before you start) pipped up during a conversation in the pub

    mate - my mrs stuck her finger in my pooper last night

    us - say what?

    mate - yeah straight in, was really good too should try it

    us - err ok, but we were talking about footy where did that come from?

    mate - i dunno i was just thinking about it

    we dont really see him no more, rumour has it he is a gimp strapped to the wall in his mrs basement

    carry on

    DDD - has it ever occured to you that most people do have sex when the girl is on her period (there you go, even whispered it for you), and that you might be the odd one for turning your nose up?
