Writing sex scenes...badly. 🤣

Came across this oldie-but-goodie over on Tumblr. It includes

• text of an (award-winning) excruciatingly bad sex scene;

• outraged commentary text by the self-righteous, entitled author of said scene; and

• comments by amused others on both.

Sex is about pleasure and delight – and the same should apply to sex in cinema, too.

: Day 16 — Feb 16: Sex
Gosh! So hard to answer these and make it entertaining, too. I'll try...

How important is sex to your couple?

These characters are as incredibly complex as they are broken. She has two love interests, and I won't go on about the alternative ones who'd be ready instantly given the signal, one who has a crush on her, one her former soulmate. She never takes half-measures, is willing to be physically and inappropriately close, and has a certain snarky eloquence that transcends innuendo. No one doesn't understand what she wants. That said, when you know the exact number of days to the end of the world, many things are unimportant. She's said:


"Attraction isn't love. It's like needing to eat. Everyone needs to. You do it, satisfy the hunger— you get hungry again.


"The woman, too? Very sneaky. The two of you?"

"Consensual."

"Legal definitions and prosecutors might disagree. The woman. Huh?"
"Skin and nerves. They all function the same." I shrugged. "It's meaningless. Occasionally, I have an urge to pee, too."

Also, what's your WIP's heat level?

Sex unmistakably happens. Mostly it's innuendo and double entendres, and the fact she likes to use kissing as a dominance maneuver. Well, there was that time he grabbed her from the candle-lit tub where he carried her all wet to the bed, dripping suds. She likes sweat. Of course, waking up in his bed with his arms and legs hugging you tightly is warm and cozy, but less so when your limbs have fallen asleep.

"You and Kurv," I asked my roommate, almost in a whisper. I'd pushed him her way, despite her vulnerability and his having a crush on me. I hadn't expected them to spend a day in bed.
She chuckled. "I like the guy."
I took a deep breath—but she interrupted whatever my emotions might blurt without thinking, to say, "Yet, when your guy always has some other woman on his tongue, you realize he's probably not fully into you."
She suddenly blushed beet red, backing away, realizing she'd innocently pronounced a two double-entendres in a row. "Oh, no. Oh, no!"

What was this?
Both had been there for me. Both had opened up in dramatic ways to me. Me?
Eyes closed, it came to me. I remembered both nights. One freely gave me what I wanted and the other gave me what I didn't know I needed. Equal but different.
I had no desire to choose between them.

In honour of the feast of St. Valentine, here's an article I wrote on writing more inclusive sex scenes (including writing intimacy for neurodivergent, asexual/aromantic, trans, queer, disabled, different-sized, and older characters, of all races, ethnicities, and religions).

Thursday night hanging out in our garage . Our advice to our younger selves would be to get a sooner.

If you've never had sex swing you are missing out on some gravity defying orgasms and some incredible flexibility in thrusting techniques. And if you are familiar with sex swing sex you already know 😏 .

Is 3 chapters too long for a sex scene?

What if there are breaks in between?
