I would have tho...Oh, that's strange re the YA. I would have thought safe sex was necessary. And bloody un heroic of the guy trying to get her pregnant. Bloody hell.<br /><br />Hmm...a challenge! I'll try to think.<br /><br />Dental dams just make me laugh. When I lived in a country town I was at a ladies lunch and someone produced one to ask if anyone knew what it was for. I did and told them...but after they'd decided it was a seal for home made jams, you know, to go under the lid with the little material cap on the lid. To this day I hear dental dam and imagine these women and their jam jars!! Decidedly not sexy!<br /><br />But I do like a challenge. Stay tuned ;)<br /><br />Cate xoCate Ellinkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12485246061618081743noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-289867951399005412.post-36852297778968727632014-06-06T23:52:19.727+10:002014-06-06T23:52:19.727+10:00and the guy in Bali.

Here's something that annoyed me. I read...Okay. Here's something that annoyed me. I read a book recently that I really enjoyed. 5 star read for me. This was from an author I've read previously, who was quite 'up' on the whole safe sex thing. Who was writing New Adult (which I think of all the genres/age groups - this is the one which really does need to keep it real - and in which I am sure in real life, safe sex is used). Anyway, in this particular book, no condoms were mentioned on grounds of safe sex. The heroine expressed a comment about 'being careful because she wasn't on the pill', upon which the guy told her not to worry in a way that led the reader and the girl to think he couldn't get her pregnant, so no big deal.<br />But I got annoyed because the purpose was that the hero wanted to get the girl up the duff, and so a condom wasn't used. So the safe sex message in a New Adult romance - where the heroine KNEW the guy had multiple partners, up to as much as 2 weeks before they got together - and she still didn't push the issue of condoms... I grumped into my breakfast about this one.<br />All that said, I don't like condoms but have taken to using them in my books or at least having some kind of clean sex discussion prior to the deed.<br />As for the whole oral sex thing, yeeeww. Just don't go there. I mean, you can make fish sex the horniest thing around, but even you Cate, can't make a dental dam horny. Now there's a challenge for you.lily malonehttp://www.lilymalone.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.com
