Erotica readers and writers...

Following today's fandom!secret on this topic, some questions about... foreskins!



Here's the secret someone posted:




Do they have a point? I was going to do a poll, but LJ is being very naughty about polls.

What are your thoughts? Should fic writers mention foreskins more often (for characters who are likely to be uncut?)  Do you not need or want this detail? Do you assume they're there anyway, depending on how you imagine the characters and who they are? Is this something you've never really considered, either way? 

Do you not give a hot damn?

ELVES?  VAMPIRES?  HOBBITS??? I don't even know.

Are you pretty sure Jack Harkness has a fiveskin? Because I am.

ETA: Thank you to my f-list (unlike the F!S thread) for not being judgey about people's parts. Every cock is pretty!

Well... I actually don't care - or rather... never ever thought about that.
To be honest... I think it's not like it makes any difference in the end (but I don't know, I don't have any experiences to judge this). Guess it might be worth mentioning if you go for an extended description of (mutual) masturbation or blowjobs, though - that is if you're loving details; apart from that I think it kinda belongs to the category of TMI.
But yeah... so much for that.

Makes sense.

A lot of really in-depth description can be excessive, you know? Like, I know what an elbow looks like. I don't need to count the freckles!

Uh... but counting freckles could be pretty nice and hot given the right errmm... person, you know? (Lool, the icon inspired me to this answer :D).

Gwen's, I would count! :D
