    I prefer victorian erotica. I had some 50 shades read to me, and it's a little too tame for my tastes.

    Books such as 50 Shades of Grey should be a must read requirement for all men! Just sayin' ... Woot! Woot! :drinker:

    Why?

    Have my wife reading Fifty Shades.
    Told her I expect a full ORAL report.
    And completed homework assignments.

    Did you start an account just so you could say that without getting a strike?? :laugh:

    I've read some Nicholas Sparks stuff in the past, but that's as close as I've gotten, and nothing like that in a long time.

    Yes! Let's encourage men to stalk and emotionally abuse women!

    Woo hoo!

    so who will be Mr. Grey in the movie?
    Someone looking to commit career suicide?

    Keanu Reeves - He's got nothing to lose.

    I once saw some lady in the seat in front of me at a Cubs game reading 50 Shades. About as close as I've gotten to them.

    Every time someone reads 50 Shades and enjoys it, a kitten is murdered.

    Agreed...I have read the first book but can't say it was enjoyable..but it was a gift so felt a bit obligated so when they asked about certian parts I could answer.

    It is really pathetic excuse of a book and does a dis-service to any woman who reads it that is impressionable enough to think all young 20 something woman are like that...ick

    Keanu can do Shakespeare and do it well. That means he has a brain. He would not take this role!

    I think the guy who played Julia Roberts' hisband in Sleeping With the Enemy should play Grey. He already has the part down, after all.

    I'm not a guy, but I don't read them either. I am not opposed to erotic fiction, but it must be well written.

    Ditto.

    Double ditto

    Yeah; “50 Shades” is a total waste of time.

    At a baseball game?!

    Geeze. Probably had ketchup on her hot dog too.

    Don't take the book word for word so seriously! Grey is a great character. Flawed and beautiful.

    I have not read much lately, but I have enjoyed the benefit of people reading some of the recent stuff.

    I would suggest the Beauty series by Anne Rice (under an non de plum) . I read much of that one out loud to someone a few years back. that was fun reading time. :happy:

    A.N. Roquelaire

    not that I would know anything about stuff like that

    You can find them under Anne Rice's name, too.

    I tried the first one. It was a bit too much for me! But at least it wasn't a 10-year-old girl's romantic fantasy written at about the level a 5-year-old would write.

    50 shades is porn with a story behind it. Men dont have time for the story, we just like the good scenes.
