I not to long ago created a thing and shared it online to some warm reception in that community. But I feel like I cant take any pride in it and I should be shamed because its in the realm of the lewd. But I want to be proud of it, it would be nice to feel like that for once.
For having never even really dabbling in any erotica or anything, yeah I'm pretty pleased with it. I've even got people saying they would like more because of how much they enjoyed it, which blows my mind. I was raised catholic and haven't been even remotely "practicing" (or religious) in ages but it seems like that catholic guilt and puritanical squeamishness still have there hooks in me to some degree.
That's understandable, I think mental hangups like that can stay for us for a while. Sex positivity is super important, but it's not something that comes naturally in our culture.
For what it's worth if you share on this site I think people would be receptive. The volcel police thing it mostly a joke lol.
That sounds awesome! For me, that's what draws me to the fanfic community so much - everybody's sharing their creativity for the love of it, and you (mostly) get such a warm reception too. Even/especially the lewd stuff :P In general, making other people happy with your creativity is one of the best feelings in the world imo.

Lewd is good and should be more publicly accepted. Do you think it's good and well made by your standards?
