RE: Sex is normal - so why do we shield our teens from it?
Yes this is ridiculous. We just don't have much access to erotic writing in the mainstream. Demystifying sex and womens real attitudes to sex is very important for us all, not just in teenage sexual education. When we write about sex we can really describe how it feels, very differently to a photo or video. Imagine if boys grew up reading womens real descriptions of their sexual experiences.
Agreed. And erotica and romance still have such a bad name in the publishing industry. It's always viewed as something subpar, like it's not real writing when romance and erotica sell really well. It's only because it has traditionally been written by women and read by women.
