fic question

[gothic_elvis]

Hey guys I got a quick question for ya'll: I have an idea for a femmeslash fic but I'm not entirely sure what I should use in terms of vocab regarding their vajayjays. I mean, I really dislike the word pussy - no idea why, don't ask me - but I will use it if I have to. And I don't mind the word cunt in regards to it but I know some women take offense to that. I know there's always just clit or opening or entrance but the last two make me think of the ass so...I dunno lol
If you were reading a het/femmeslash fic what words would you like to see/not take offense to?

FEMSLASH!!! *glomps on you* Tell me more!
Um... I honestly have never heard the lady bits referred to in fic that didn't make me go :P
Her heat? Her folds? I've heard lips, but that mostly just make me throw up in my mouth. THERE'S NO NICE WORD FOR THEM, I GUESS. :P

Yeessss; it just kinda came to me, actually. It's sorta kinda a Ruby/Jo fic that takes place during BUABS when Sam like leaves the room when she's tied to the post. I know Ruby wasn't in that season but I'll make it an AU of sorts. haha

I know, that's why I don't read a whole lot of femmeslash cause the words just make me :|. Why does there have to be so many more words for the male bits? lol

I HATE GIRLY PARTS!

i write a lot of femslash porn (SHH, NO HATIN' LOL) and i generally use cunt when referring to the vaginal opening and clit when referring to the clitoris. another good tactic is not using any names for the actual anatomy and just referencing the person by name - e.g. 'mary sue slid her fingers into brittany' or 'jenny clenched roughly around the dildo as she came'. if you want to check it out, i just finished up a buffy/faith for femslash_today and posted it here (http://community.livejournal.com/femslash_today/291881.html?thread=2740265#t2740265).

words to avoid: vagina, pussy (it really takes me out of the fic and makes me go 'eww'), overly pulpy words like sheath, flower of her virginity, etc., and super blunt words like fuckhole. lol.

anyway, that's just how i do it. it's not the only way. :p hope i helped!

I WON'T BE HATIN'; I THINK THAT'S AWESOME!

Thank you for the tips though! It really, really helps. I think my best bet is just going with not using any names or whatever though I may generally use cunt, cause like I said, it doesn't really bug me. [God knows why pussy does but the 'c word' doesn't.]

Yeah...ewwwwww I hate it when they refer to it as 'flower' of any sort and just, no. Just no.

I've never read femmeslash fic in my entire life, just... IDK, never found anything good? Or never actually looked for? So, sorry but can't help here :\

Well, if you WERE to read it, or if you had to refer to your own bits, what word(s) would you use?

[secretlytodream.livejournal.com]

English isn't my native language, and to tell you the truth, I don't really care :P I mean, I apprehend words differently, so I don't think I'm the right person to ask this question :)

[gothic-elvis.livejournal.com]

I understand, though I do wonder then why you even bothered to comment since you had absolutely nothing to offer.

[secretlytodream.livejournal.com]

Just wanted to let you know so you won't wait any help from me.

HELL YES FEMSLASH! I hope I get to read it.

I'm with you, I hate that word too and it's such a turn off when reading fic. I use the word cunt and opening. I've honestly never had anyone complain or get offended by the word, so I say go for it!

[gothic-elvis.livejournal.com]

If I actually write it then you'll for sure get to read it! haha

Yeah I just...bleh. I mean, fine, if guys are all sitting around and talking about girls or whatever but when used in a sexual context I just haaaattee it. Thanks for the tips! ;]
