To say that I had to stride my way through this book might be an understatement. I've read my share of erotic reading but only as chapters. This is my first time to read an entire book about erotica and while I think I like erotic poetry (i think all poetry should be sexy anyway), i think it woukd take time before i read another book like this. it consumed me at times. but if i may be frank, mayber 80% of the time i was reading this, i felt so vanilla! omg
i find it so fascinating how sex (and sexuality) can reach far and wide (pun intended) between differeng people. i try my best to comfortable with every aspect of it, be it mine or other people's, and show respect and practice an accepting behavior because i think sex (and sexuality) is easily self expression as say fashion. it's literally the most intimate self expression could be, cause i guess whether its casual or meaningful (the sex), and selective or experimental (the sexuality), both represent desire. and omg i think desire is sexy.
