In reply to M. Keep. There unfortunately seems to be this increasingly strict delineation between content with sex and without. Where there's no more grey area between. It's something that's been becoming more predominant on the internet especially as it ceases being a wild west frontier of lawlessness.

In reply to Trent Evans. Sometimes I have to wonder if they seemed dirtier only because I was younger and less experience, but I still feel like a lot of books that aren't specifically marketed as romance have just been removed of all traces of sex and sexuality, as you said.

Finally, someone said it! Why has sexuality been almost entirely scrubbed from sci-fi, and especially, fantasy? I understand why sci-fi/fantasy readers might be squicked by hard-core, graphic sex, but I think there is an audience for sci-fi/fantasy with a lot more explicit sexuality.

Perhaps that’s only wishful thinking on my part though:)
