Courtesy of Vox Day, we are alerted to a new "genre" within the speculative-fiction envelope that must be seen to be believed: Pornography about humans having sex with extinct and / or mythological creatures.
Gentle Reader, there are some sights even my iron constitution has trouble bearing...especially at 4:00 AM on a Thursday. ("I never could get the hang of Thursdays." -- Douglas Adams's galaxy-traveling twit Arthur Dent.) All the same, I had to show it to the CSO.
She couldn't believe it either:
CSO: I can't imagine who would read that sort of crap.
FWP: If it's being published, you can bet your bottom dollar that it has a readership. I'll go further: I'll bet you that there are people who read only that sort of material -- not even other kinds of porn.
CSO: But who?
FWP: There are some things Man was not meant to know, sweetie. But forget thou not the Weirdness Axiom first articulated to me by the late, great William M. Porretto:"Son, in this world there are people who fuck chickens." CSO: Ugh.
FWP: Dad didn't say whether I'd meet them some day, though.
CSO: Have you?
FWP: Not as far as I'm aware.
CSO: Well, you have a few years left.
FWP: (unprintable)
And a happy Thursday to you, too, Gentle Reader!
One of the things I have learned in my life is that there is no object or activity so bizarre or disgusting that there aren't at least a small group of humans who fetishize it. Pick anything, add "sex" and do a google search.
ReplyDeleteWhilst living and working at a summer camp for autistic children, we came across a cook at said camp in the early morning engaging in coitus with the donated live chickens before he would slaughter them for our dinner meal. He was severely beaten to a inch of his life and when the local sheriff came to collect him wondered how he came to his condition, it was explained he tripped over a log after being discovered while trying to run away. Worked for the sheriff. Sick bastards all

Actually, the Vampire/Werewolf fiction has, at some point at least implied there was sex involved at some point...more recent offerings (Laurel K Hamilton, Charlene Harris, et all) are somewhat more explicit.
ReplyDeleteHaving said that...sheesh the rest of the "stuff", per your link...sounds like a bunch of D&D fan fiction gone horribly wrong.
And some of the offerings in Manga/Anime via those kinky (and really sometimes strange) Japanese is right up there with what you are mentioning here.
Bottom line...to quote good ol' Tom Lehrer; "When correctly viewed, everything is lewd. I can tell you things about Peter Pan, and the Wizard of Oz...there's a dirty old man!"

When I first read that, I was certain it was a spoof.

Only because you're a normal, rational, human being. Had your reaction been anything else, I'd have suggested you go get your head examined, or join the democrat party.
Didn’t Larry Niven coin the term for interspecies sex: “rishathra,” which occurs in several of his novels?
ReplyDeleteAt one SF con I attended a panel in which several of the panelists felt it necessary to reiterate that "one’s companionate animal does not want to have sex with you.”
And I have seen in vegetarian, anti-vivisecitonist publications articles with quasi-erotic drawings of people and animals.
Of course, consent isn’t applicable to animals, who needed give consent for what people wish to do to them.
