Why women love ‘dirty’ stories

The secret is out, ever since the arrival of the 50-Shades of Grey series it’s clear that women love ‘dirty’ stories. Straight forward porn does not do much for the average girl, but an erotic book flies from the shelf and straight into the designer bag.

Many publishers have known this for a while already, with ero-romance being sold worldwide at the rate of a book every 4 seconds, and for decades already. And writers know how much the ladies have a desire for saucy stories, regardless of public opinion.

A good realistic story set around sex scenes hits the erogenous zone of a woman hard. That’s exactly why the so called ‘porna’ has made such a wave. Even though it does not compare with the written word, the fact is that activating your own fantasy makes all the difference.

If you’re looking for a few ero-literary items to follow on the 50-Shades, here are a few titles and writers that will definitely have your toes curling.

–      Books by Sylvia Day especially Captivated By You. Some say even more well written than the work by E.L. James
–      The Eighty Days series by Vina Jackson. Goes on from where 50-Shades stops.
–      The Juliette Society by literary porno star Sacha Grey
–       Books by Jackie Collins, they always bring a wonderful mix of glamour, intrigue and saucy moments
–      Another woman who wrote candid, but beautiful stories about sex is Anais Nin, known for her diaries and Erotica. Her book about her affair with the writer Henry Miller and his wife, which was filmed as Henry and June.
–      Books by Maya Banks will have you falling off your chair.
