50 shades of probably not.

You know, when this book first came out I thought of a few things. One was, that slavegirl kinda' grows on you, I mean, sure she is underfoot a lot of the time, but she helps clean up and will stay in the spare room when company comes over. Another is that it seems to me that women who normally read the run of the mill raunchy romance novels in where the main female character get's gang raped by page 3.....and likes it, will probably see this book as rather ..soft. Kinda' like the difference between hard core, multi-species orgies and the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Edition.
Also, I figured that men all over the world were seeing the excitement over this book and getting a little paranoid.
See, the thing is, that if your wife, girlfriend, stranger you found on Craigslist, is reading this book, there might be a problem. If she is fantasizing about getting tied up, and spanked until she begs for a good harsh pounding, whatever you are currently doing is rather boring comparatively.
So you really need to know. And based on the popularity of this book, it's a good chance that she is counting ceiling tiles while you are doing your best moves.

I imagine that all across the country, many men are trying to bring this book up in casual conversation. It's a fishing expedition. This can be some pretty scary stuff. I mean it's a new generation of under 50 and over [none of your damn business] bunch of women out there. The last popular "racy" book was what? "The Joy of Sex"? Those were drawings. And frankly, when it came out, I was a kid... I mean, I was of "boner age" but still a kid. I couldn't believe this was a book. But as I flipped through the pages (yes my mom bought it and it was on her book shelf plain as day) I couldn't imagine ever being able to get a girl to do any of that shit.

Now the new acceptable racy book has a little spanking in it. As far as I know, I mean I didn't read it because I'm a guy and ..... well, I'm a guy.
This is either awesome or disappointing. Depending on your perspective. If you are a guy who would really get off tying your wife of 20 years to a bed post and pulling her hair while you give her the rough ride of her life..well, good for you..nut ball.
 But if you are a normal man, you are thinking.."shit, I might hurt my hand, and who has to put away the stripper pole when we are done?"... "What if I laugh when she says "give it to me master!"... I mean it's a good  chance that not more than an hour before she was bitching about putting your laundry in the hamper.

Still, you make an attempt to find out. It's important to know where you stand. So you bring it up. Now, if your woman has read this book, and she is able to go through every detail, but then ends up saying something like "It's really not about the sex, it's really about his ability to face his past and deal with that emotionally and take responsibility for his mistakes"... you are not going to be spanking her ass tonight....or ever for that matter.

And that's not really a bad thing. Frankly, even if she has this fantasy, in it, she is built like a porn star, and the man she is doing it with, has washboard abs and a dangerous reputation.... in other words...not you. 
You get normal sex, sometimes, when it's convenient, and the kids are asleep, and the door is locked, and she doesn't have to get up early the next day.
You are the comfort zone guy. No hand cuffs, no ceiling hooks, no latex, no dog leashes, no hair pulling, and no spanking. 
Life is just normal. Sex is just normal. Bills paid, kids off to school, house cleaned, lawn mowed, dinner cooked, wife fucked.
Don't ask for more.

In this blog I am trying to cover everything I said it was. Life, love, kids, drinking, and kinky sex no one really get's to have. I hope I covered that last one. 
Slavegirl wants a name. I'm considering "Kitten".
