The Joy of Food Porn

by Rachel Kramer Bussel

Food porn. I love the way those two words sound together, and what they represent, both the glossy, mouth-watering food photography worthy of Pinterest or Instagram, and those images’ more literary counterparts. I don’t have as much experience with actually XXX video food porn, but that’s its own niche. Unlike, say, terms like “real estate porn,” which I tend to find a perversion of the word “porn,” I make an exception for “food porn” because I find an undeniable sensu...

Amy Schumer Is Dirty Girly Fun

by Madeline Iva

Amy Schumer sprang into my awareness when her show INSIDE AMY SCHUMERwas on Hulu. I was watching it a little at a time, savoring it the way you save your Easter candy, and then suddenly one day all the episodes were bumped up to the subscriber level (i.e. no longer free) Nooooooo! I was horrified. The next time they made her comedy available for free on Hulu I gobbled up every available episode like someone binging on chocolate covered potato chips.

She is dirty — so dirty. Y...

Silver Fox Smackdown: Sam Elliot vs Sean Connery

By Elizabeth Shore

So, there I am, sitting around the table at my weekly critique group, eating chips and jabbering away about who knows what. (We’d not yet begun the critiquing portion of the evening’s festivities). Unexpectedly, Sam Elliot’s name came up and it triggered a respose like Pavlov’s dog. Drooling. Slobbering. We may well have started barking. Every woman emitted a lustful, longing sigh. “He’ssoooo hot,” one of my fellow critiquers said, her voice all breathy. “He IS,” another on...

I am madly hitting deadlines and packing up to change countries again (alas) so in meanwhile here are some photos to let you see what I’ll be missing.

I’ve Been Had! Book Betrayals: Who’s at Fault?

by Kiersten Hallie Krum

It’s no secret that several of us here at Lady Smut are huge fangrrls of author Cara McKenna. A quick search of our achieves will pop up multiple posts on her and her books. I re-read McKenna’sHard Time and After Hours this week and, as per usual, as soon as I finished, I immediately wanted to start each one all over again. Instead, given it was already midnight, I downloaded a novella prequel to McKenna’s Desert Dogs romantic suspense series, Drive it Deep. It was a g...

Apocalypse, Nah: Why Dating Will Survive Tinder

In MY day, we swiped one of these babies! And we LIKED it!

By Alexa Day

I underwent a brief experiment with Tinder some time ago as research for a presentation I made at a Girls’ Night Out event. I’d never been on Tinder before, although I had a decent idea what to expect, and although nothing truly unpleasant happened (by which I mean that I received neither dick pic nor vulgar message), I don’t feel the need to return to Tinder. I don’...

Playing Footsie, the fetish and the fun

By Isabelle Drake

Polished nails or bare? Silver toes rings or sparkling jeweled anklets? A graceful high arch? Pretty long toes? Cute short ones? Sexy high heels? Fun flats? You get the idea. When it comes to feet, there is much to consider with many options for preferences. But one thing we can all agree on, feet are intriguing.

According the Wikipedia, the ultimate source on such matters, foot fetishism is “the most common form of sexual fetishism for otherwise non-sexual objects or body p...

Sooper Sekrit Love

Secret kisses are the best first kisses EVAH!

by Madeline Iva

Okay, talk about illicit pleasures! Do we love secret love? Course we do! Romeo & Juliet — duh! Brokeback Mountain — doh. The list goes on and on…

Not that I’m into secrets usually. I have a friend who loves to deliberately let you know she knows a secret–and who it’s about–but then she won’t tell you what it is. Drives me bananas. Yetwhen it comes to romance, I’m a total secret love addict. Why do I revel in it so much? No idea.

I...
