I've read lots of paranormals over the years and didn't find that much sex as opposed to any other. Certainly no orgies or big sex scenes at the beginning. You must be reading different books, lolShawn Lanehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15465277365345512695noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1947610883726622306.post-36353468970261794672011-05-01T11:13:33.032-07:002011-05-01T11:13:33.032-07:00Usually leads to much eye rolling. :)Usually leads to much eye rolling. :)Chrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12959009113795804133noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1947610883726622306.post-59058408506023449882011-05-01T04:15:59.930-07:002011-05-01T04:15:59.930-07:00I am not so much a fan of paranormal -I read it a...I am not so much a fan of paranormal -I read it and I suppose the first few scenes gratuitous sex is getting more common place than a meeting of the minds before sex begin scenes in para books - so I will be honest and say I just go with it. <br /><br />I have bypass author if I figure that that's their style or I sometimes just get bored of it after a few books in a series and stop reading.<br /><br /><br />As for the macho man genre, Romance suspense is my first love and a close second crime fiction so I am all for the MINIMAL romantic scenes.<br /><br />I get "the theatre of war" mindset that a few author gets right, and so women,love and kids are pretty decent bargaining chips for any criminal worth their salt.<br /><br />I also expect an author to where possible use the "Honour amoung thieves code" so an houourable criminal would not cross that line that family and loved one falls behind.<br /><br />But<br /><br />on the other hand I do not read crime fic/rom sus for the "honourable criminal" so I have no qualms about "do what needs to be done and taking happiness when you can".<br /><br />and this is where the passion of the instant sex, the sex that just seem to be scene after scenes, the sex that logistical sometimes is impossible and make no bloody sense to me... comes in.<br /><br />It's silly, it's too much and more often in recent reads it looks like it's being used as page filler.<br /><br />but it brings in readers to the genre and the industry so who am I to complain.. <br /><br />I stick to the bread and butter authors that I know do not write like that... or at the least make the protags connect and become friends rather than sex partner who are attracted to each other for only what's below the waist... <br /><br />Sorry to rant hon...<br /><br />E.H>Erotic Horizonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02236771670599353453noreply@blogger.com
