Paul Imgrund on Nether Street Blues

Rude that no one's mentioned my own contribution to the discourse! https://paulimgrund.substack.com/p/sex-in-literature-bad?r=1tl7mn I'll have to read your piece and tell you what I think. I think both ladies wrote interesting articles, while both clearly avoiding drawing a hard line anything, which would make for a far more interesting debate. I argue that, while stories do often call for depictions of sex, they'd never have to be more graphic than the Lawrence excerpt Liza and Tolley both cited. Anything more graphic would detract and distract from the scene. I have yet to see anyone make a compelling argument for gushing fluids and quivering members; the reasoning on the pro-erotica side gets about as lucid as "I write what I want, lol." Curious to hear if you believe there's a hard line anywhere and if so, at what point.
