What Makes Me Hot II
Aug 31st
A few months ago I wrote a post about my general distaste for erotica and BDSM fiction and at the same time pointed to a short pieced written by @Mollena that I love called What Makes Me Hot. Well I have often on twitter expressed my similar distaste for what I refer to as Tumblr Porn. Tumblr Porn is the oft re-blogged over-produced unrealistic images that are the staple of Tumblr. In my opinion Tumblr has become the Playboy magazine of the micro-blogging world. Images that are contrived and modified to the point of being unrealistic and they certainly do not turn me on, or inspire me as art.
And just when I was ready to write the medium off for good I found the exception. And in my not so humble opinion an

astonishing exception. I am talking about My Nude Self. The personal daily photo blog of Dame Lebeau “aka” @SugarHipsLebeau.

What makes Dame Lebeau’s blog so special? I thought you’d never ask. In the first place all of the content is original photography by Dame Lebeau herself, and she is her only model. And the photography is exquisite. The lighting, the angles, and the framing are perfect for every shot. Secondly the model is absolutely stunning in facial beauty and in body. Now this is something very unusual for me to say, because I truly do not have a body type., in sie or shape. However I am rapt with the presentation in these photos. And on a more personal note there are certain physical characteristics that fit a very specific kink of mine, but I happily digress.
The thing that has most drawn me to the self presentation of Dame Lebeau though

is the fact that she is what can best be described as an alternate presentation of beauty. that is she is tattooed and otherwise not mainstream in her presentation. However and most importantly in my opinion her “Alternate” look is not presented as a fetish or a “peek at the other kind” as the very well known Suicide Girls so often presents. The artists also lets us in on her very best work, not a mass presentation of bulk “Spray and Pray” shots.
Finally the artist has a very unique approach to funding her project. She politely asks for help. How refreshing this is in an environment on the internet of recurring billing for worthy projects, a simple request is so refreshing. So if you enjoy this art as much as I do, please contribute. and tell her Big Poppa sent ya.
What Makes Me Hot
Feb 11th
With the sincerest apologies to all of my twitter and blogging friends who write erotica, I don’t like it. It almost always leaves me flat. Now of course there is the occasional exception but in general I find reading erotica to be similar to reading an academic text. No that’s not exactly true, I am kind of fond of academic texts. But if you write erotica don’t be offended. I think it is me. I have tried to read some of the fiction that is the staple of the BDSM scene and I just get bored. I forced myself to (Warning Blasphemy ahead) read The Story of O, and I barely made it through the first “Beauty” book and even the Marketplace series barely kept my attention.
Now as a qualifier I have to tell you that I am a voracious reader. All kinds of reading material will keep my attention, so what is it about erotica that bores me. I have thought about it carefully and I just don’t know but I just don’t feel it. It usually reminds me of the Tumblr style porn I see every day, all style and no substance. When I read about a sexual situation I want to feel like I am or could be there. I mean that’s the point, right?
Of course it may also be that I judge it against the single hottest 500 words I have EVER read. In late 2008 I had stumbled across one of the most amazing bloggers completely by accident. I had been following @Mollena at The Perverted Negress for a couple of months and was beyond impressed, when I stumbled across FUCKED (Under 500). In her words “Trying out this new thing, seeing if I can pull off telling an (in)decent fucktale in under 500 words. Whaddya think?”
“Don’t move. Don’t fucking move. If you move and you make me come right now I swear to god you’ll make me very angry and I don’t think you want that.” I could hardly breathe as his belt, looped once around my throat buckle cutting into my shoulder pulled tight under my back tail gripped firmly in his hand growing tighter incrementally slowly becoming the focus of my attention as I focused on not moving which was hard. It was hard because his full weight was on me and when he wasn’t threatening me with effulgent glistening stepping-razor violence he was biting me really hard and it isn’t all that easy to focus on not moving about when someone is biting you.
Now I am not gonna give it all to you (I am fanning myself) you are just going have to check it out yourself.
But this is the part that really makes me hard,
I could see and I knew in that moment that yes, he could if he wanted to he could finish me and this moment and I would not struggle at all and this moved me so deeply I started to cry.
That is HOT!! But it is not just that it crawls inside my head and makes me want that moment. The whole essay transports me to the room, to the moment, I smell the sweat and the sex, I can taste the fear and desire. That is how to write a story that makes me hot.
