Someone on my friendslist was ranting about the word 'cum' the other day and I just read something else that needs to be considered with equal derision (imo) - the phrase 'anal pucker'. To be honest, is 'anal pucker' sexy or erotic in any way? I think not.

I always think that it's supposed to be one of those 'cute' insults for people who don't want to swear.

"Oh, you anal pucker!"

But maybe that's just me.

To me, it's not in the least bit sexy or erotic.
I don't really see why one has to describe it at all. It's a hole, an asshole. We all know that. ;)
I prefer when writers don't describe it at all. ;)

I'm sure I read about a 'hungry ass' in the last couple of days. Completely put me off my supper!

Then again, I'm the reader who never, under any circumstances, wants to read about spunk dripping down anyone's thighs after anal sex. Because here's the thing - if your arsehole is loose enough for that to happen, it isn't just semen that's going to be...

I know whereof I speak! No dripping *anythings*!

It's right up there with weeping cocks, in the pantheon of phrases that take the erotic out of 'erotic stories' and kick it to death.

It's almost as puketastic as "puckering rosebud," "throbbing cock," and my favorite objects of hetfic derision, "pearl of her passion" and "sopping orchid."

Boy, I'm learning a lot from this discussion!

;P

As the original ranter...

...and in view of your icon, I think we can officially change "anal pucker" to "raisin rye" in any story we find it in. ;)
