No Rich People Allowed

A funny thing happened on the way to writing today. I realized I hated the rich.

I decided to go with a collection of short stories dealing with the Secret Submissive Society. One of the themes I wanted to explore was that if you had a large secret society pulling the strings, then every single person didn't need to be a millionaire with a chateau. I'm a little bewildered why erotica writers who come from modest backgrounds want to write about the rich and famous. Not being rich and famous, I'm not eager to see them get laid. I understand part of it is a power fantasy about what an erotica writer would do if they were a millionaire but I feel it's inherently dishonest. We don't need a secluded island to have wild sex. All we really need is the desire and a little forethought.

Last week I wrote the first chapter and a fine chapter it was. The 'twist' I used was that the dom was a minimum wage guy who the Society uses to punish some of their members. The punished person in this case was a trophy wife. The guy has a crappy job except he gets to punish women from time to time. The trophy wife is horrified to be used by someone so lowly and hence we have all the ingredients for sweaty sex.

Today I sat down and the first three plots I came up with was more rich person abuse. Even worse, I decided not to have any wealthy dom characters at all. Wow. Somewhere along the way I turned into French Revolutionist.

Deep breath.

Shon's 4 Step Program towards Rich People in This Story

1> I understand that for a Society to work, it will need money from somewhere.

2> I understand that not all rich people are evil.

3> I understand that an erotic story that hates the wealthy is more political than I really want to write.

4> Salma Hayak is rich but still fuckable.

Remakes

This morning I read that a porn company is doing an X-rated remake of "Faster Pussycat, Kill Kill Kill". Watch the trailer at http://www.starrproductions.biz/store/catalog/Faster-Pussycat-Fuck-Fuck-p-18258.html . I liked the original movie which featured three evil women who killed a guy, kidnapped his girlfriend for no good reason and ended up at a creepy farm where ummm, some money was buried? And then ummmm, I can't remember. I think some girls with big boobs fought though.

Now, my first reaction was a long rambling rant about the evils of turning softcore porn into hardcore porn. After I watched the trailer though, I realized it has been about 6.4 years since I've seen movie porn with a plot. The idea of watching porn and actually having story context to go with the sex makes me forgive these people for remaking a fine crappy movie.

Kitten Natividad has a role in the movie, which is a nice tribute to Russ Meyer's work, but then they also have Ron Jeremy. That's like teaming up Kraft with a milk company and doing your damn best to make the cheesiest thing ever.

My last shred of wisdom has to do with something Russ Meyer would have hated and that's the fake breasts in the remake. Here's the thing about Russ's movies. They were silly and the production values weren't great, but he had the largest natural breasted women possible in his movies. When you looked at the cast, you would see this weird mix of ethnic backgrounds, acting ability, ugly girls, pretty girls and in one movie, a gal with a bad case of giganticism. You knew he toured the world and hit every small town, big city and back alley to find women who had tits bigger than most 60's televisions. He gathered these large breasted women like some sort of Jason gathering the Tit-Argonauts. These gals were the original Dream Team, the Bust Justice League, the DD team; the greatest collection of large boobs in the world regardless of race, beauty or acting skill. The man loved big natural breasts and it really weird to see a remake with fake looking beachball boobs. Sigh.
