Tainted Lime Reviews Issue #13

February 4, 2002

I've had several people ask about how I choose the stories I review.

Basically, I look at the subject lines and try to guess which stories

I might like.

I prefer consensual stories, and I dislike humiliation and pedophilia.

Science fiction, celebrities, mind control, incest, fan fiction ...

there are many genres that I think are boring or ridiculous. While

no-sex stories may be an interesting change of pace, I have a strong

preference for sexual content.

On occasion, I'll read a story outside my confort zone, but if the

plot and characters aren't compelling, I'm not likely to enjoy it.

{ASSM} Sex For Sale (Exhib, MF)

By Idle Hands <oneidlehand@hotmail.com>

http://assm.asstr.org/Year2002/35015

If you read ASSM, you know that a good way to earn a little extra

cash is to sell sex toys to women at private parties in people's

homes. What you don't usually see in ASSM, though, is how much

*more* you can make if you sell those toys to men.

While the story does a good job explaining how the narrator

became a toy saleswoman, it falls short setting up this

particular party, and that is a serious problem. The motivations

of the narrator are severely underplayed several times at key

moments of the story. When she decides to do a party for men.

When she decides she will demonstrate the products for the men.

When she first takes off her clothes.

Another big problem is the narrator shifts back and forth from

telling the story in a traditional past tense to a stream-of-

consciousness-like present tense. While this results in a talky,

informal feel to the writing, it also causes the amount of detail

to vary widely from paragraph to paragraph. The story is very

choppy.

But what a great idea for a story! Imagine the tension building

as the saleswoman models sexy lingerie for a group of men.

Imagine what happens when she breaks out the toys. The potential

is definitely here for a sexy and unique story.

{ASSM} (ASS, ASSM) Between The Fucking Lines (humor)

By D.B. Metallo <db_metallo@hotmail.com>

http://assm.asstr.org/Year2002/35019

Well, the author isn't attempting anything erotic here, or so he

says at the outset. He's making fun of those "trite cliches" that

abound in ASSM. (As opposed to those untrite cliches, I suppose.)

Really, this is one decent joke repeated over and over again

until it overstays its welcome. And yes, the author is correct -

it's not very erotic.

Maybe you'll enjoy this if you're tired of reading sex stories
and want to see what *really* happens when the guy gets together

with the girl. But if you're like me, you'll want to find a story
where the girl doesn't have a booger hanging from her nose.

{ASSM} NEW SHORT STORY! Taken (M/M)

By Robert B. Morton, II <khaan@speakeasy.org>

http://assm.asstr.org/Year2002/35020

This is a story about a man who is with Jarrod, his male lover. I

suppose calling Jarrod a lover is stretching things a bit,

because this is definitely a love-hate relationship. The narrator

oscillates between sexual arousal and self-loathing.

Told in first person and present tense, the story suffers because

as much time is spent on internal thoughts as external actions.

While some effort is spent explaining what it's like to have a

cock shoved down your throat, it's followed by a long speech

about what it *means* to have a cock shoved down your throat. This

is a problem with almost every stream-of-consciousness story I've

ever read.

But this is still a fascinating story. With all the internal

dialogue, we get a good, clear picture of what is going through

the narrator's head. And this narrator has a lot of complicated,

contradictory thoughts. The sex is rough and unpleasant, and this

story has a convincing picture of what goes through a man's head

when he's the recipient of less-than-loving treatment.

{ASSM} Subway series#4: Who's Sorry Now?

By theGreatxIam <max_wojtylak@yahoo.com>

http://assm.asstr.org/Year2002/35029

It makes a lot of sense for a series of stories that take place

on subways would eventually make it to the crowded trains in

Japan. And here we have it from theGreatxIam.

However, this story contains a lot of backstory telling us how a

degradable polymer was developed. Not a hint of sex, not a hint

of subways, not a hint of Japan.

Japan shows up when someone in a big Japanese company figures out

the polymer can be used to make CDs self-destruct in ten years.

But still no subways and still no sex.

Finally, after a disastrous meeting with the honchos at Ekasa,

the narrator gets on one of the Tokyo subways. And finally, he

gets pushed up against a horny young woman.

The sex, when it finally arrives, is very exciting. The chemistry

and the business meetings weren't quite as exciting, but they

were interesting enough. On the whole, though, the story feels

front-heavy. The buildup meanders too much.

Don't get me wrong - this is an excellent story about a man who

is a little bitter about his experience in Japan. Although I

thought he should be a little more appreciative - his trip ended

with quite a bang!

{ASSM} "The Chair" (MF, light bd, cons, f-ejac)

By Green man <greenman@nym.alias.net>

http://assm.asstr.org/Year2002/35033

A man who works as a high school teacher has a wife who is a high-

powered lawyer. His wife is a real driver, a take charge kind of

woman. Some husbands might feel emasculated by that. But not this

guy. You see, this guy has a chair.

When the wife comes home from work, her husband has donned a ski

mask and pretends to rob the house. They use a safe word, so

everything is completely consensual. The pseudo-intruder slaps

and pushes and forces the wife to take off her clothes, and then

he ties her to The Chair.

The characters in this story do too much "striping" when they would

have more fun taking off their clothes, and there were a few

other minor typos. But the writing is generally very good.

This story is rougher than I thought it would be from the "light

bd" story code. And while I don't generally enjoy stories that

try to humiliate one of the characters, in this particular case,

the game worked, thanks to the way the characters were

introduced. This is one of the better bondage stories I've read.
