The Clapback on Censorship (Amoresels Blog Tour)

Hello Awesome Visitors! Let's Talk!

Unless you've been sleeping under a bridge (if you have been, I'm sorry), you know that my emergence in the publishing world was an erotic author. Although I have explored other genres since then, erotica is where I feel most at home.

Yet, in the world, erotica is just as bigger villain as a serial killer. Unfortunately, people would rather entertain violence than nudity or sex.

Today, I give you a snippet on the guest post I did on Author Y. Correa's blog where I clapback on censorship.

Erotica is painted out as a villain, even as it sits in the shadows not doing anything wrong. There’s an age restriction on erotica, so kids have no business even looking at it in the first place. Yet, there’s this all-out war against the genre, so much so, that you find it in mainstream spots less and less.

Yes, some of the writers (I don’t dare deem those types authors) are putting out garbage that I wouldn’t even read. Yet, putting visual and reading quality aside, I don’t think it is fair that one genre is singled out, like it’s the Scarlet Letter of Literature.

I think erotica can serve as an educational tool. One can spice up the boredom in the bedroom. One can learn something new that can take sensual skills to the next level. One can explore fantasies in the mind that one doesn’t have the bravery to exhibit publicly. Or, indulging in something steamy can take the mundane out of the every day. Erotica is an art, and it takes place even before the physical begins.

Until next time,
