Erotic Fantasies...

Fantasy and role play are normal and healthy aspects of male sexuality, whether it be the erotic fantasies we have during our solo masturbation sessions, or fantasy we create with our lovers and or partners.

Erotic fantasies can come in all manner of shapes and sizes, from imaging that we are being seduced by a famous actor or musician, right down to imagining that the hunky boy next door is our sex slave for the weekend.

Fantasies allow us to free up our mind and lose some of our sexual inhibitions. We can be that blonde surfer dude with the perfect body in our fantasies and we can do and say things that we might not normally do. Fantasies are perfectly healthy provided that we can still tell fantasy from reality and that our fantasy lives do not obsess or take over our minds.

Sex, sexuality, and gender are frequent themes in erotic stories, the division between erotic fantasy and mainstream fantasy is a steep one, crossed by few hardy souls. We have to consider sex a legitimate subject for speculation, and therefore a legitimate subject for the genre that calls itself "speculative fiction."

All erotic material is a social barometer; it does not induce offensive behavior, it merely records whatever the prevailing attitudes about women and men are. It is a market-driven industry, perhaps the only purely capitalist industry left in the United States. Whatever the people want is what photographers and "erotic industries" give them. If people demanded tasteful, sensitive erotic scenes, then pornographers would publish it.
