Yes, this was my original thought when the topic was first posted...that it might get people up in arms one way or another. And I'm very non-confrontational as a general rule so....this debate makes me a bit itchy...yet, here I am!
I didn't realize this had made Time's cover. I never see real magazines anymore....for good or bad....most of my info is found online.
I may be dating myself with this but...does anyone else remember Nancy Friday (I think that was her name)? IIRC, she compiled a book (or several) filled with women's fantasies. I think it was pretty controversial at the time.
I enjoy well written books of most genres...and I enjoy some not very well written books also! A good story, be it romance, action, murder, or even erotica, can be life changing. It's all about the imagination and how you choose to interact with what you're reading.
Anyway, I've had a little coffee now and I think I might be making just a tad more sense...but that's not for certain.
Actually, I was thinking about all the erotica I have read...and I've read a lot! One of my favorite scenes ever was in a Luanne Rice book, I think, and involved a pint of Ben & Jerry's - thereby combining all my favorite things in just a few paragraphs!
