Instructions for use and copying are available at http://members.aol.com/ladycyrrh The stories: [story] [no subject provided] [A+] When posted: 10/10/97 Where posted: ASS, ASSM Author: waynet2 Address: waynet2@earthlink.net A middle aged couple who've been having cybersex for a while sneak away from their spouses for a day and meet in a Holiday Inn, where they have physical sex...tender, sublime, and slutty. This description doesn't do justice to this story, which was very good, and very hot, and dealt realistically with the angst engendered by infidelity, first dates, and midlife anomie. In fact, it's almost too good for ASS. Dig it up and read it; trust me. Sometimes good stuff comes in unpromising packages. This author should post more. Fantasies Revisited [B+] When posted: 10/16/97 Where posted: ASSG Author: Phoenixfr Address: phoenixfr@aol.com In this romantic science fiction story (which has similarities to Woody Allen's "Sleeper" and the John Malkovich movie "Making Mr. Right") a scientist wakes up after 99 years in suspended animation. In this brave new world, all those old, guilt-producing family ties like parents and teachers have been tossed out in favor of android companions who anticipate their "master's" every need, even changing form for them, and offer unconditional love and affection as well. That's just what the scientist gets, along with sex up the wazoo. The writing here suffered from poor proofreading ("exstasy" "he put his arms around his waste") and could have used more polish, but otherwise it was a very nice fantasy. Overview of Populated Space, 2023 [A-] When posted: 10/31/97 Where posted: ASS Author: P.C. Drake Posted by: Albrecht Archived at: http://www.alfaskop.net/~albrecht (Furry Pleasures) Though listed as fur, this story was more *scale.* Like many of its genre, the story was science fiction as well. A young man applies for a job on a starship crewed by "Dragons"-- a reptilian humanoid race who spend most of their time in deep space scouting habitable planets. He is interviewed by an attractive female Dragon with blue scales, who asks him revealing questions about his sexual preferences and experience...routine for long space missions, she explains, as all members of the crew have to get along. Hearing that the young man is a virgin, she initiates him into sex, making the discovery that human men are better endowed than Dragon men. The story was well written and entertaining, especially for science fiction fans. The style was a little derivative of Elf Sternberg's, or perhaps of the authors who influenced Elf Sternberg. Things got a little silly toward the end, with "candy flavored cum" and lots of hissing and moaning, but overall, I liked it. How often do you have a man making love to a dragon? The Misadventures of Jane Jetson [C] When posted: 11/20/97 Where posted: ASSM, AST (alt.sex.toons) Author: Thoth Posted by: Cernovog Address: cernovog@servtech.com Like the above, this story also had a science fiction theme...the sexual lives of the familiar Hanna-Barbera space-age family. I don't know about you, but I find the idea of having sex with a cartoon character way, way more bizarre and offputting than any number of sentient Dragons, androids, Vulcans in pon farr, tentacled beasties, or amorphous gobs of protoplasm. I mean, picture George and Jane Jetson in your mind. Then pictured them unclothed with their genitalia exposed. See what I mean? That said, there was no way this story worked for me, and in fact it made me nauseated. Jane dresses herself in a "Venusian's Secret" teddy to await the return of George, but he falls asleep on her, so she turns first to the Vibratron 3000, an advanced masturbatory servo-droid which has special micropodia attachments for her nipples and a sonic vibrator for her cunt. Then she fucks "her boy, Elroy." My, don't kids grow up fast in this future age! After the naughty incestuous thrills of that escapade, she fucks Astro the family dog, who has a monster penis that finally satisfies her. Though the writing technique here wasn't bad, I found the story insulting for assuming any woman, cartoon or not, would get turned on by fantasizing her face fucked, then screwing her 9-year-old child and getting humped by a dog. Yeah, I know it's porn, but if it was intended to be amusing, the writer could have used a lighter, more humorous touch. I wouldn't have minded reading about just Jane and the servo-droid dildo. The many stupid cliches the story contained also irritated, from Jane's lapping up jism like Big Boy milkshakes to a child ejaculating to a dog having a large penis. This is against scientific fact...even a small man has, by weight and volume, a larger penis than the largest dog. Hoover [C] When posted: 11/20/97 Where posted: ASS, ASSM Author: Edward Miller Address: zxcvbnm21@hotmail.com This one was just as silly as Jane Jetson, but in a different way. A guy meets a girl at the store. They go home and fuck. After 4 or 5 orgasms, he wakes up in a hospital bed, where it's revealed these orgasms have so depleted him of fluid he had to be carted away in an ambulance. Though the writing was technically OK, the plot, characters, and storyline weren't there. This wouldn't have bothered me if there was something distinguishing about the sex or sexual characteristics of the people involved, but there wasn't...just run of the mill DD tits and shaved pussy on a blonde bimbo who was described only in the most general of terms: "walking sex, to such a degree that it was almost unbelievable." Then there's the favorite sex act of hot chicks everywhere--hot cum on the tits--and they expand with every squirt, too, even though the story's narrator tries vainly to ignore the spectacle and fall asleep after lovemaking like he usually does. Actually, this wasn't even a story about a blonde bimbo. It was about a plug-in sex toy. And why on earth was it called "Hoover?" But then, why are dogs called Rover... X-Rated Shop [B] When posted: 11/20/97 Where posted: ASS, ASSM Author: MrED157897 Address: mred157897@aol.com For all the sex toy shops there are, it's surprising there aren't more stories about them. In this story, which can probably be safely classified as "wifeslut," a couple goes to one of those video-peepshow places and rents a booth, complete with glory hole. The wife gets so excited she sucks, then fucks, the men who come into the neighboring booth, and the husband in turn fucks her. They both leave later that night feeling like they've really accomplished something. Like most wifeslut stories this didn't have a lot of background, or a lot of explanation for why the characters did what they did; it simply assumed the reader would receive an erotic understanding of whatever sex acts are portrayed therein. Which is fine, I guess, if you want a lot of mindless, readable sex, but if you're looking for something more substantial, you need a storyline. Building Bridges [B] When posted: 11/9/97 Where posted: ASS, ASSM Author: Nick Address: nick@cassandra.demon.co.uk A man goes to visit the girlfriend of a friend of his, who's been revealing certain secrets about him that she shouldn't. It's his intent to confront her with his feelings of betrayal, but he loses his temper and pushes her around some. He discovers that she likes the treatment and wants to show remorse, and they have implied sex. The story wasn't bad, but it only felt half-complete...because we never see what deep, dark secrets the remorseful woman blabbed to her coworkers. Therefore, neither the hero's nor heroine's behavior holds water...and while I could imagine people behaving this way, it was only with a fair degree of puzzlement. The story was more interesting for the author's preface to it, which states: "I've been told that this story will get me a reputation which will be hard to shake off! I hope not! Although it involves M/F violence it's not gratuitous and it should be emphasized that I don't condone such things in real life. Its a story about provocation and anger rather than good ol' S&M, but there should be something in it to please anyone. If your worried it does have a happy ending, so if thats not what you're after - well sorry. Read it anyway, you may just like it!" which suggests to me he was self-conscious about it, or feels he should be self-conscious about it within the core group of ASS writers who post most frequently. I find this attitude a little strange. I read bizarre, violent and kinky stuff all the time, as do other ASS authors (no, I'm not naming names) even if they don't write it...and I know for a fact that if the same author writes, say, a romantic little M/F story, and one featuring bondage, rape, violence, and other goodies, the kinky one will draw three and four times as many responses as the "straight" one. I find the attitude that only M/F or F/F consensual stories are morally superior tiresome in light of the very broad, diverse range of sexual attitudes and behaviors adopted by the human race, but hey, I'm just a bystander in all this. It's all just grist for an imaginary doctorate.
