We analyse texts from the fields of fiction and non-fiction and think about how high-quality eroticism can look today. We have no patent remedies, but put our thoughts and convictions on erotic literature on paper.
We regard the texts presented here as “work in progress”, which are constantly being expanded and updated as soon as we find new, exciting examples or topics. Ideally, over time this will create a pool of ideas for erotic literature for all those who write themselves.
Eroticism thrives on presence. It happens in the moment—in the body, in the gaze, in the tension between movement and stillness. This is precisely what makes erotic films so instructive for writers: they show what happens instead of explaining it. They work with postures, touches, perspectives. And it is precisely these tools that can give … Continue reading Writing cinematographically
When you hear the word “sorority,” you often think of tight shorts, loud laughter, and strict hierarchies. A fixed plot has emerged in erotic literature: the shy newcomers are forced to undress, perform tasks, and cross sexual boundaries – in front of a camera. We know this from film series such as Haze Her, which … Continue reading Sororities in erotic literature – between cliché and physical reality
Despair is a powerful emotion that goes far beyond sadness or shame. In erotic stories, it can be a catalyst that pushes characters to their limits. In the ENF (embarrassed nude female) genre in particular, despair opens up special possibilities for creating emotional depth and allowing readers to empathize with the character. Visible signs of … Continue reading Despair in erotic texts: body, mind, and dramatic power
In many stories about sororities, the initiation of new members plays a central role. The motif of forced nudity—in the sense of embarrassed nude female (ENF)—opens up numerous dramatic and psychological possibilities. The moment when a young woman takes off her clothes often marks the transition from outsider to sister. It reveals a lot about … Continue reading Initiation rites and ENF – Nudity as a threshold to community
The depiction of flagellation in erotic novels has a long literary tradition. It reflects society’s approach to power, pain, and pleasure. Works by Leopold von Sacher-Masoch and the Marquis de Sade in particular have shaped this complex theme—in very different ways. Flagellation in Sacher-Masoch Sacher-Masoch’s most famous novel, Venus in Furs, paints a picture of … Continue reading Flagellation in erotic novels: from the classics to modern literature
Nightmares are fascinating: they play with fears, with feelings of helplessness and loss of control. In the ENF genre (Embarrassed Nude Female), nightmares seem to be an obvious stylistic device. After all, shame, nudity, and the feeling of being watched or exposed are among the most common motifs in dreams. But translating nightmares into literature … Continue reading Nightmares as an ENF theme – How to combine suspense and sensuality
The idea of a vineyard snail slowly crawling across bare skin evokes conflicting feelings in many people. For some, it is a moment of pure relaxation, a return to nature. For others, it triggers uneasiness—the awareness of being so close to a defenseless, foreign creature that leaves a damp, cool trail on their body. This … Continue reading Snail trails on your skin – a sensual experience
For most women, regular visits to the gynecologist are part of everyday life. Nevertheless, it is and remains an intimate borderline experience. What makes it so rich for the ENF (Embarrassed Nude Female) genre is not only the constellation of a clothed man and a naked woman, but above all the dynamics of power, shame, … Continue reading Gynecological examination as a topic in ENF
A nipple orgasm (also known as a “nipplegasm”) is an orgasm that is triggered exclusively or primarily by stimulation of the nipples – i.e. without direct stimulation of the genitals. It is a real, neurologically based orgasm that can be achieved through nipple stimulation alone. It can feel physically and emotionally similar to a genital … Continue reading The nipple orgasm: A sensual journey
In erotic literature featuring ENF (embarrassed nude female) motifs, the use of magic poses a particular dramaturgical risk. When supernatural forces come into play, there is a real danger that the protagonist’s will will be circumvented or even broken. But it is precisely this potential fall that, when cleverly executed, can open up a multi-layered … Continue reading Magic in ENF – When Spells Unveil the Body
