Soft is just disappointing...hard has some staying power
Nah, it's too easy.
LOL! LOL!
If they showed a guy's package then you can bet its real. Real sex, even between actors is sex.
True! Usually they don't do that, show the guys body parts, in this one they do, which was rather surprising and kind of liberating. Because they are always so quick to show a woman's breasts, etc., but not the male parts!
Sex is real life and there are instances when I think it is almost mandatory in fiction to make the story seem "real." But I struggle with it because while I like to write love scenes, I rarely put them into my stories because I don't want it to be considered porn.
Yes, there are times that it happens naturally, as in real-life. Some books are more explicit with love scenes now a days too, that becomes a natural and realistic part of relationships in fiction stories. There is a way to write them though. I've written some stuff with explicit and not too explicit love scenes. I guess it depends on the audience, although mine haven't seen any - yet! In a way, it's going with the 'times' because everyone can't be like Barbara Cartland the romance writer who has been in the business for a long time and whose love scenes or pretty safe! At least they used to be when I read her books as a teen!
