Erotica: different to porn?

I like to read EROTICA, however many people view it the same has porn, but to me its different, example you dont see expilicit pictures in erotica but you do in porn magazines,

So what are your views, is it the same or different?

as to your question whats the difference between harry potter the book and harry potter the movie?
you could argue the books are much better and i would agree with you because they are more full of detail but in the end they are both forms of entertainment deigned to tell a story.

Its the same with porn v erotic, they both serve the same funtion, entertianment, arousal ect. I surpose the one difference is you cant really read as a couple or while having sex but *shrug*

 

go away!

 

Pardon?

 

theres not much of a story though in looking at porn pictures is there?

 

because if i shared anything with you, you would just find it has a way to knock me again

 

i could argue that there isnt much of a story in a harry potter movie either when you compare it to the book

this is the thing, i dont send him pictures, its better to use some imagination, its a bit like christmas, you have a taste of what it can be like, but you wont actually know until you open the gifts! lol

well dirty pics are just pictures, messages are there to use the imagination, there is no imagination in looking at dirty pictures on a phone or a book

 

what about art?
do you think that requires imagination?

ok thats a side issue
what is the defined purpose of porn?

 

How does a book contain more detail than a film?

"A picture tells a thousand words."

Anyway, it's a case of where you draw the line between porn and not porn. I'd call it porn.

 

the purpose to porn from what i can tell is, to make the people watching it or looking at it, turned on, by the visuals in a message you ahve to use an imagintion, likewise with erotica
