Have any of you guys read "50 Shades of Grey"?

[Tchocky]

I read the first book of the trilogy. I heard teenage girls are reading this. I guess every woman fantasizes about being a sex slave to a hot, rich guy.

You're a braver man than I

A friend brought it to playgroup and I flipped it open to a random page. The WORST writing I've ever seen published. It's Twilight fanfic and since I don't like Twilight, 50 Shades and I had no chance of a future together. There is some great erotica out there for women but that was horrid.

However a few of my mates are saying they're getting way more (or any) action in the bedroom since their women have read it so that's a big plus! But no, most of us don't fantasize about being in an emotionally abusive, S&M relationship regardless if the guy is a billionaire or not.

Well most females aren't gambling forum mods so that would explain the disjoint in you not reading like most females.

True! But most of my girl friends with a few brain cells in their head don't have any interest in/have been disgusted with themselves after reading this too. So go figure!

Glad you enjoyed the trilogy though

There's a woman in my office who reads it like her bible. There's practically a wet spot on her chair when she gets up.

Do you know her extension # at work?

[Allure]

Not many guys on this site can actually read.

[Teela]

I'm embarrassed to admit that I have read the books. They were horribly written and they're just fantasy fodder for women that want to be in an emotionally and borderline physically abusive relationship.

[lesterdymond]

Chapter 8 in the first book is the only thing worth reading.

My wife read all 3 books in 4 days...lol

They'll get there eventually, they always do.

God bless you, Teela.

Book is so overrated...

[Dutch]

Are there butt plugs and ball gags involved? Or is it boring tie her up with silk scarves and tug on her hair bullshit?

[Teela]

I was on vacation and thought, "Hey, New York Times bestseller - it has to be good." Right?

Very wrong. Yes, butt plugs, gags, ben wa balls, simulated rape scene. Once I start something, I have to finish it. I gave the books away to try to erase that they ever existed in my life. My mom wanted to borrow them. "Aren't they bestsellers? I think I would like to read them."

No, mother.

[CanuckG]

These books aren't suppose to be well written.....just entertainment for horny women.
