Group Sex and BDSM Among Taboo Themes in New Erotic Book
Sylver’s first volume of erotica, entitled Mating Season, includes ten short stories partly based on her real-life sexual experiences. These tales explore taboo topics like bisexuality, threesomes, open relationships, BDSM, voyeurism and exhibitionism, with graphic descriptions of each scene. The longest story in the book, The Secret Passage, delves into swinging, kink and sexual exploration against a backdrop of Amsterdam’s sex-infused subculture.
About Mating Season
With Mating Season, the author and ethical non-monogamist wants to empower others to “open your mind to new things and embrace your fantasies and your authentic self, rather than repressing them or feeling shameful about them,” as reads the book’s foreword. While some authors are private about their identities and personal lives, the front cover of Mating Season features a photo of Lexi Sylver pictured from behind, wearing lingerie and wielding a flogger.
Female-focused erotic literature written by women has increased in recent years. Books like 50 Shades of Grey have brought erotica into the mainstream and opened up dialogue about female sexuality. “Erotica for women has become more popular, and offers what male-centric pornography doesn’t: authentic female orgasms,” says Sylver. “In that respect, Mating Season places the sexual power in the hands of women, shamelessly showcasing our desires and pleasures as we want them — not as a performance for men."
