Laura and Ian had been together for a year when he began making regular requests for her to watch porn with him to “spice things up” in their bedroom. Up until then, Laura had only read erotica on her own to get herself in the mood. She was reluctant to watch porn in the past because she’d read that women who worked in the porn industry were often mistreated and underpaid. Wanting to keep her sex life healthy, she agreed to watch porn with Ian after one of their date nights.
“I wanted to like it, this porn he was so enthusiastic to share with me to get us in the mood,” Laura shared as she told me about her experience watching pornography with her boyfriend Ian. “But as it progressed, I couldn’t get over the blatant objectification of women. I could tell the women in the video weren’t actually enjoying themselves. And rather than turning me on, I was repulsed and disappointed.”
Last year we wrote about some of the options for “porn for women”. We go much more in-depth in the topic there, but basically, “erotica (or porn) for women” is actually pretty difficult to define, since we have a wide variety of preferences and sexual fantasies when it comes to what’s pleasurable and sexy (shocking, right?). And, of course, erotica is not just something women can enjoy — anybody can enjoy some steamy stories.
This time, we wanted to focus more on erotic fiction and gather some of the best that’s just a click away… There’s everything from short stories, lengthy novels, the largest free erotic site in the world, audiobook, sex stories by independent writers and even erotica based on fandoms. Basically, there’s something for everyone!
Without further ado, here they are!
