Erotica is sexual literature, designed to arouse your interest. It can be used as part of a healthy sex life and can even have a beneficial effect on your wellness and wellbeing, if used well. Sometimes erotica enhances a sexual experience, and it can be used alone or in couples.
Erotica generally refers to a loving interaction rather than a purely sexual one. It is generally the term that is used to refer to written materials that are sexually explicit in nature, or to visual images such as films, drawing or photographs based around a sexual subject. Sometimes sex toys (devices used during intercourse to enhance the sexual experience) can be considered erotica, too.
Erotica – especially the sexually explicit visual and written form – dates back to ancient times and exists across a number of different cultures. With the modern legal system arriving, some sexually explicit material can now be classed as obscene, depending on just how explicit it is and how the interpreter can view it.
There are standards for legal obscenity that have been set with the US Supreme Court, but they can be very difficult to apply on a case-by-case basis. There is no specific formula that can be used to decide whether something is erotica or obscenity and so these things are often decided by individuals or communities.
Viewing or reading erotica can help to provide the person in question with a sound knowledge or understanding of sexual anatomy and behaviour. Sometimes, erotic materials can be used to help spark sexual arousal as quickly as possible. Some people use these types of materials to help accompany masturbation.
Erotica triggers the imagination and allows people to give in to forbidden or difficult areas of their sexuality within a controlled and safe environment.
