    Man, a sex scene in the WoT series must last like 8 books, with at least 400 pages describing the penis becoming erect.

    Yeah it should!

    But it doesn't.

    There is this book series about living spaceships, al capone coming back from the dead and the dead conquering the galaxy
    It has the most awfully awful sex scenes ever, like written by a 14 year old

    "oooh" she murmered as his penis was put in her vagina, making wet noises

    That'd be http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Night%27s_Dawn_Trilogy I guess. I sorta like his ideas for the future, but yeah, the sex scenes are annoying. (It gets better/worse in other books too, where there is this faction that believes cloning yourself and then sharing consciousness is the bestest idea ever, and one girl "dates"one of these "multiples". oooooooh yeaaaaaaah.

    Oh god yes

    George R. R. Martin you write some pretty embarrassing sex scenes.

    And it only gets worse when you start throwing in lesbian princesses.

    Neal Stephenson writes some pretty terrible sex scenes. But judging by the general atmosphere of the Baroque Cycle, I can never tell how much of that is intentional.

    I actually quite like his books. The most recent, Black Man, especially; almost PKD good.

    But the porno scenes are just porno scenes.

    I'm just glad China Mieville isn't descriptive in any of the sex scenes in Perdido Street Station. I'm not sure I want to read too much about a man having sex with a chick with a bug head.

    Yeah, I'm not sure I agree with that in general. Amy Shaftoe was a pretty strong character, and sex was really only one aspect of Eliza's character. Which is more than you can say for most fictional harem girls.

    Amy Shaftoe did nothing in that book except serve as a target for Unix guy's dick.

    Oh, wait. I've got a winner.
    The sex scenes between anthropomorphised moles in Horwood's Duncton Wood.
    I'd quote them, but I have no desire to revisit those mental scars.

    I like the way Steve Erickson does sex scenes. He tells you they're happening and then moves on.

    Also the "sex" scene in Matthew Stover's "Heroes Die" was hilarious. Dude just starts fingering the owner of a bar while she keeps thinking "At least he isn't tearing the place up".

    No, I just mentally blocked them so therefore I have no recollection of it ever happening.

    Disclosure. I read that book when I was 15 because I thought Jurassic Park and Congo were awesome books so it was going to be awesome too. I was wrong.

    Terrible movie too.

    I still contend that it is one of the worst movies ever made though.

    There was this book in my school library that had a sex scene in it.

    There was an actual list of people waiting to read it. Just for the sex scene.



    I swear this would not have happened in a mixed sex school.
