Conservative audiences, on the other hand, are likely to be highly critical. They may see it as violating moral and religious norms. They might even call for boycotting novels that contain such passages. And then there are the lesbian community themselves. Some may feel it is a positive step in getting their experiences and relationships represented, while others may worry about it being too much of an objectifying portrayal.
Well, it can be seen as a way to break taboos. In many societies, lesbian relationships have been stigmatized for a long time. Novels with such passages can start conversations about acceptance and equality. But on the other hand, some people may find it inappropriate, especially if not handled with care in terms of the overall context and the target audience of the novel.
Some audiences may be very accepting. For example, within the LGBT+ community, these excerpts can be seen as a form of representation, making them feel more included in literature. However, more conservative audiences might be uncomfortable or even opposed to it, believing it goes against their moral or religious beliefs.
Personally, I think we should first consider our own boundaries and values. If we are uncomfortable with such content, we can simply choose not to read those novels. However, if we are interested in the overall story and the literary value despite the explicit passages, we can try to focus on the other aspects like the writing style, the plot development, etc.
One impact is that it can limit the readership. Some people may be offended or uncomfortable with such content, especially younger readers or those with more conservative values. Another impact is on the literary reputation. Novels with excessive explicit sex passages might be considered more for shock value rather than true literary merit.
In Western liberal cultures, there is a growing acceptance of different sexual orientations and relationship dynamics. So, stories about a wife having lesbian sex may be treated as just another aspect of human sexual experience and might even be used to promote LGBTQ+ rights and understanding. In contrast, in many Asian and Middle - Eastern cultures where traditional family values are highly emphasized, such stories would be extremely controversial and shunned as they go against the established norms of marriage and heterosexuality.
Some audiences might find it really interesting and engaging. They could be interested in the details of the party, like the music, the food, and the people there. They would enjoy listening to her experiences and might even share their own similar experiences in response.
Some people who support Trump might find it really funny and endearing. They'd see it as a creative way to show Trump in a more light - hearted, fatherly figure type of role, like he's passing on his values through a bedtime story in meme form.
The novel 'The Great Gatsby' by F. Scott Fitzgerald has some passages that touch on the allure and sexual undertones of the relationships. The way Gatsby looks at Daisy, the electricity in the air when they are together, shows a kind of sexual tension. It's more about the longing and the dream - like quality of their relationship that has sexual undertones.
Some readers might find them exciting as they add a sense of passion and intensity to the story. They can enhance the romantic or passionate aspect of the relationship between characters.
In Middle Eastern cultures, which are often more conservative religiously, stories about having sex in public are not only frowned upon but also considered immoral. Islamic teachings, for instance, emphasize modesty and propriety in all aspects of life, and public sexual behavior is a clear violation of these values. Public spaces are regarded as areas for normal, family - friendly interactions, and any form of sexual behavior in public is not tolerated.
