This chapter goes out to all my heterosexual readers and those who have little or no experience in writing about LGBTQIA+ ships.
Anyone can write about gay/lesbian couples, it's not the same as fetishizing them
So when does it become problematic?
- It's problematic when all fics you write about same s3x couples are in traditional hetero dynamics
- A gay couple isn't always going to consist of a big, muscular, protective man, and a short, feminine, sweet boy
- Same as a lesbian relationship isn't always gonna be between a masculine butch/stud lesbian and a femme lipstick lesbian
- There's much more diversity in the community, and you should use the full potential this has
- Gay/lesbian relationships aren't the same as straight relationships, they need a different treatmentWith that in mind, here are some Infos and tips on:
Gay smut
- The bottom will need to be prepped with lots of lube and a few fingers every time
- guys need to clean out their ãnus beforehand, it is your choice if you mention this or not, but I'll just mention it because some people don't know
- a pillow under the bottom's hips is helpful, as they need to be raised a little higher for good access
- there's plenty of good positions for guys, don't feel limited! (Might make a chapter on this too)
- The pr0state is the spot you wanna reach, it's in the ãnus, down
- It is called P-spot, not G-spot! That's for women!
- Not all men can cvm untouched (without stimulating the penis)
- yes, condoms are still important even when no one can get pregnant, it's for health reasons
- the back and legs might get sore and the bottom will then be able to feel it during the next day(s), 'weeks after' is not realistic
- don't be afraid to make them be loud in bed, let your men enjoy themselves
- The more masculine dude isn't automatically the top/D0m!!!Lesbian smut
- Rarest smut you'll find online or anywhere really
- Learn the difference between the cl!toris, vãgina, vulva, and G-spot before you write one single word
- Most women can't cvm without cl!toral stimulation
- tongue, fingers, knees, thighs, sc!ssoring, the options are endless, do some research
- if you wanna write penetration s€x, make it realistic and look up how it works, use reference products for your fics (maybe even include a picture in your book)
- even though women self-lubricate, it can't always be counted on and lube might still be necessary
- the masc women isn't automatically the top/d0m!!! And the other way around!!!Trans smut
this is also a rare topic and it's more complex so I'll divide it in three topics
When writing any of these, definitely tag it and put a disclaimer, tell your readers what they're signing up for!! Be considerate that your readers may be struggling with those topics and be kind.FTM
- If they take testosterone, their gen!tals look different; look this up
- they might be binding so take that in consideration when undressing
- also consider if your character has gender dysphoria and how comfortable they are in such an intimate situation
- a trans character may want to back out of a s€xual situation because of body dismorphia or gender dysphoria
- let your character's partner give them a lot of reassurance
- you don't have to write the story about them being trans, it can just as much just be a side fact
- don't make it only about the fact that they're trans, but consider and mention it enough so your readers have a good idea of how it affects the story
- if the trans male person has a boyfriend, and they're pre-op, they can engage in normal penetration s€x if they're comfortable with that
- if the trans male character has a boyfriend and is post-op, the gay paragraph is for you
- if the trans male character has a girlfriend and is pre-op, the lesbian paragraph is for you
- if the trans male character has a girlfriend and is post-op, they can engage in normal penetrational s€x
- if the person is extremely dysphoric, they might ask their partner not to refer to their female associated body parts with their names etcMTF
- read what I wrote about FTM please I will not repeat what I've already said about trans people in general
- also look up how estrogens affect the body of an amab person
- if the trans femme person has a boyfriend and is pre-op, the gay chapter is for you
- if the trans femme person has a boyfriend and is post-op, they can engage in normal penetration s€x
- if the trans femme person has a girlfriend and is pre-op they can engage in normal penetration s€x if they are comfortable with it
- if the trans femme person has a girlfriend and is post-op, the lesbian chapter is for youIntersex
- There are many different types of intersex people
- not all intersex people have both gen!tals
- do proper research on the topic before writing about it
- think of wether your person is mostly femme or masc presenting or if they have an overall androgynous look
- do they use multiple pronouns?
- Are they comfortable with normal penetration s€x?
- go deeper into their character than just gen!tals, I beg you
- if you only make them intersex for the s€xual appeal of someone having different genitals, it's a fetish - don't fetishize intersexuality!Asexual smut
- believe it or not, asexual people can have s€x
- not all asexual people are repulsed by s€x/intimacy (thought some definitely are)
- an asexual individual may only be comfortable with certain aspects of s€x, and feel repulsed by others
- an asexual individual who does not want s€x can still mãsturbate
- an asexual individual can want sex despite not feeling s€xual attraction
- do some research on the asexual spectrum and the different types there are (greysexual, demisexual, aegosexual, etc.)
- some asexuals may enjoy s€xual things, but not want to engage etc
- get creative, read up on it, or ask asexual people you know
- ace people are cool and deserve to be represented as part of the lgbtqai community the same as other queer people!Aromantic smut
- Though some aro people are also asexual, this is not the default
- a person can decide to want s€x but not a romantic relationship
- aro people can have the same s€xual attraction and relationships as any other person
- aro people just don't fall in love they can still be in a way (aesthetically/s€xually/platonically) attracted to people
- aro people are cool and deserve to be represented as part of the lgbtqai community the same as other queer people!I hope that this chapter is helpful, feel free to ask questions or make annotations on any of these topics!
