I realize this is like a year old butttt I'm commenting anyway.

Hate to sound cold, but their house, their rules. Everyone's parents drive them crazy but if you know there is a rule, and you break it, don't be surprised when there is a consequence.

That being said, I think a lot of what they are doing is bogus. Throwing away your toys and porn doesn't make the impulse to use them go away.

You said they are devout Christian..I'm assuming you aren't?? I haven't read all your blogs..

..why do you want denounce your middle name??

I honestly have the same thing but opposite lol. I enjoy straight porn, but watching girl on girl really excites me. I've kissed a few girls and done more with one, but even if I wasn't married, I couldn't see myself entering a serious relationship with a woman.

Des raises a good point in that you might just not see yourself marrying a man because of societal norms. You certainly need to be honest with any woman you date that you are sexually attracted to men.

Once you experiment more, it will become clearer where you should be.

Hehe, best quote EVER!

As for your #3 irk, I personally don't think I've ever given a dare to a male. Seeing as I am of the xx clan and have no idea what it feels like to be a guy (duh) I feel uncomfortable handing out dares to guys because I don't know how their body will react to different types of stimulation. Now, you may argue that seeing as everybody is different I can't know how another girl would feel doing a dare that I set, but hey, that's just how my reasoning goes. I actually much prefer going to the dare section and posting a gender neutral dare that anyone can try if it interests them. But that's just me

Wow, and now I'm blushing. Though I know that English isn't everyone's mother tongue on GD (myself included, by the way) it annoys me to no end when I see stories that lack even basic writing skills such as capitalization and at least minimally well-placed punctuation. I think that your suggestions to use the editor section and to ask for help from friends and fellow writers to be very good advice indeed!

Hi. I don't even know how I came across this, but I have something similar (not identical.)
I experience emotional connections and sexual connections with people differently, and they are not always connected.
I call the emotional connection (who I could marry), "affectional orientation", and the sexual connection (who I can have sex with) "sexual orientation."
I thought I was mostly lesbian (or partly bi) for years because I couldn't really get the emotional connection with guys, and was rarely sexually attracted to one.
Lately though I have had very satisfying sexual relationships with a few guys, and also very recently realized I can have the emotional connection with one too.
Anyway, I mainly wanted to say that the emotional connections we have with our significant others, and the sexual connections we have with people are not the same thing, and they don't always line up right.

To elaborate, a lot of what people write just isn't believable. Creating another world is fine - one of my favorite e-lits ever is Synthetic originally just titled Renee that started on 7chan - but people being voluntarily gangraped or doing anything anyone asks of them because someone *gasp* has one naughty photo of them might be stretching reality a bit too far. I tend to prefer a certain amount of realism over slap-you-in-the-face plot devices.

With that said, what we're writing here is tapping into people's fantasies. So people are willing to suspend their disbelief to pursue that. My perspective is why should they have to?

Audiences can be fickle. It doesn't take much to entertain the masses. Originality aside, I agree though. There are some stories where I just have to wonder "what is the point?" when there is clearly no attempt at anything remotely cohesive. It's as if they impressed themselves so much with their imagination that they were convinced they could write an amazing story then couldn't keep their hands off their dick long enough to add punctuation, complete whole sentences, or write anything worth reading.

Maybe some of us just have higher standards than most. Erotic literature or not, it's still an artform and you're still telling a story. It's kind of insulting to not even try.

tis true, tis true. Maybe we should start incorporating bearded dragons as plot twists! haha

I agree 1000000 % with this. Hopefully people will learn eventually. *crosses fingers*

Bravo. I saw you were a recent viewer to my blog, so I decided to come check your profile out. The same things bug me.

For me personally, it is easier to create punishments in general, rather than dares, but I try to be fair in who I reply to, and I've given a couple males some punishments. In fact... I think I may have given more males punishments than females.. anyway. Great blog, I'll look forward to reading more when I have time!

1) financial independence 2) bye bye

You'll probably learn to appreciate your parents better after you've moved out. Another thing if you are over 18 it's probably illegal for your parents to throw away your possessions. Sure they can say they don't want them in their house but that's another thing then destroying property without giving you a choice.

You want your freedom - move out, simple.

"I have often complained about them being vanilla and a bit too overprotective"

"My parents, mostly my dad, view punishments as a way to get me to do something and as a threat"

Sounds a little contradictory, and less about overprotection as about control, but you'd have to validate that statement.
There's little you can do, except start to screw things up in little ways. When your mom asks for a snack, get it, but leave it out of reach. You can also start spending much more time away from home - the library for example. Start little ways to reduce their dependence on you.

Christianity, vanilla... what have they got to do with the majority of your post.

I don't see how anyone could disagree, I think it is something that had to be said. Glad you got that off your mind

Relationships can become an addiction.

That's all I have to say on the matter.

I'm not dead yet though :P

Yea always love those people that have x amount of something you see them later alone and no fun. Over all you are right the master/slave thing is a relationship not just sex, one day they will learn or move past it, that is what ends up happening

Thank you. Really, that's all that needs to be said regarding this post. Sending a bit of love your way
