I am not a person of literature but I've been exposed to a community of women and men interested in the provocative world of erotica. Books of writers like D.H. Lawrence, Anais Nin and Pauline Reage usually crowd our desks.
This was a very interesting topic being discussed. I thought I might seek your opinions on: Is Erotica and Porn the same thing? Or are they two different entities?
If I am to consult Mr. Webster, this is the result I get:
Erotica: literary or artistic works having an erotic theme or quality
Pornography: the depiction of erotic behavior (as in pictures or writing) intended to cause sexual excitement
But what do you thinnk?
