Genres
I'm open to a wide range of genres. Obscenely wide. It's harder for me to list all I do like than all I don't like.

My favorite settings are fantasy combined with something else, multiverse, post-apoc, historical (mixed with something else), and futuristic. I'm not limited to those, but it's a good start.

My favorite genres include mystery, adventure, action, drama, tragedy (must be mixed with something else and kept balanced), romance (again must be mixed, and more.

I'm happy to include elements of slice-of-life and romance, but doing them on their own doesn't hold my interest indefinitely.
I've heard people hate on:

  • moist
  • clunge
  • viscous slop
  • frothing
  • meat-blade
  • cum purse
  • ball snot

What words do _you_ hate to see in a sex scene? What just makes you feel like you want to turn yourself inside-out to escape?

Pussy. Absolutely disgusts me. Along with-

-roast beef
-hard rod
-lady bits
 
Not so much gross, but I can't help but laugh when I see "sword" and "saber". 😂 I just can't take it seriously.
 
Moist cabinet
Slumbering Beast
Smirk
 
I hate the words bulge, rod, slop, moist—anything to do with bodily fluids—member, heat, sword, etc. etc. I could go on all day honestly.

Oh, and elusive globes. I still haven't forgiven Richard K. Morgan for that atrocity.
 
These... these are fucking fantastic, thank you. I need more!

stab me with that meatsword right in mah meatsheath

And though I don't write smut I do have my fair share of awful euphemisms!

- Cherry picking
- Popping the flowerbud
- Touching the tofu
- Poepen (trans: pooping) [The Flemish say this]

Orbs.

I've seen them used to describe eyes or otherwise and...either way they're used just makes me wince a little. xD

I have been reading a translation of Arabian nights and one of the sentences read:

Pierce me with your rapiers!

It took me a bit to understand what these rapiers were, because it definitely didn't involve a fight.

I once saw an ass described as two perfectly round gloves of ice cream, and yes, it was gloves and not globes, but it gave me a full-body cringe that I've yet to recover from.

Also ramrod makes me puke.
