Monday food for thought

Gender equality and sex

Sure, I write about sex, among other things. And sometimes my writing is raw and explicit, say when Rasputin experiences an existential crisis in the middle of one of his notorious orgies. You can’t expect the Mad Monk of Russia to mince words, right? But if you are thinking 50 Shades and similar books, boy, are you wrong. My erotica is thought-provoking as much as arousing, dark, ironic. It raises some questions which are too sour to digest without some hot spices.

In that spirit, do you believe in gender equality? If so, do you know a guy who agreed, very reluctantly, to a threesome only to prove to his girlfriend how cool, daring, adventurous… he is? No, me neither. Why do women agree to stuff that makes them feel uncomfortable? Why do they feel the need to prove something to their partners? They shouldn’t be proving anything to anyone, let alone their partners. Please share your thoughts about this.
