Your pet peeves in medfet stories

Definitely anything unrealistic or obviously embellished. The mental dynamics involved in a realistic, clinical setting are much more powerful and effective than a scripted exam that turns into an overtly sexual encounter. The intimate sexual thoughts that remain distinct from the clinical exam is what makes the situation fascinating and arousing.

I like realistic medfet play and stories, and not some off the wall scenario where the hot dr all of a sudden starts giving oral out of no where lol

I wish they were more about the actual exams. I am also into surgical fetish and it’s so hard to find good surgical stories also. Usually most of the stories are all about sex which is nice but sometimes you want more detail on the procedure and such.

I haven't seen any that were all about sex.

First of all: I do Not have a PROSTRATE! I have No idea what this is nor do I know How one would examine it!! Please stop. Secondly, and this is more of a subjective opinion, I really can’t stand it when exam scenes get over the top sexual. I prefer when the sexual aspects are hidden under the veneer of professionalism on the part of the doctor.

^This isn't a grammar class. ffs.

Exactly. Very good point, Dr Youngman. Stories should have some sort of unity, to which the reader - usually unconsciously - soon tunes in and settles comfortably.

What l mainly want to say, though, is that this thread contains many good points about writing a story that satisfies the reader. And that those points mostly apply equally to interactive stories-by-correspondence (see the thread 'Roleplay by correspondence') that l love to engage in with suitable Zity-ers. (For more on that, see my profile-page.)

Overwhelmingly the tendency for authors to think it necessary when the doctor is female and the patient is male for the encounter to end in sex.

I agree with a number of people here on not. Makes it hard to read.

I disagree with others sometimes I like over the top fictional story. Sometimes I like completely true stories.

Yes I agree unfinished stories suck.

I haven't seen any that were all about sex.

This is no longer true. I read one a few days ago that was all about sex, even though the tags said medical fetish. It was a very poorly written story. Fortunately, it was short.

Yes I agree unfinished stories suck.

I doubt that any members are professional writers. Starting a story is always fun, ending it can be anti-climatic. I also surmise that most stories are a form of mental masturbation, it is writing down a vivid fantasy of the mind and after a certain point the desire that fueled it either wanes or climaxes.

Either way, the immediate and urgent desire is gone and so is the urge to write.

Well said, I think, @agracier, especially re: mental masturbation.. I had a story on here that I deleted due to the stance re: C19, but basically I had the energy, both sexual and creative, to do one chapter in what I deem to be sufficient detail, but it wound up being very long, and veered down a path I didn't intend. So once it was time for a second chapter, I had no energy to do one that would connect properly to the first, or be stylistically consistent to the whole. It's like I write just to masturbate (mentally or sexually), so to speak. When I'm done, I'm done, even if morally, I wish to do more and not leave things hanging..

I know I'm guilty of leaving a couple of stories hanging here. I think that I left the stories unfinished mainly because I didn't know how to continue them, not because I was necessarily tired of my story line. That being said, I do intend to try to dust them off in the next couple of months, when my current story is finished. Don't want to leave 3 hanging!

I have left stories hanging, too, though I've now deleted them. I may put them back up when I get my mojo back regarding them and get past the writer's block.

Welcome back, @agracier!

Reading a “true” story that is obviously not true.

I'm not really a fan of metfet stories that lack authenticity. I can live with a little embellishment, but when it devolves into sex, the wheels come off for me. Regardless of what happens in the story, however, what really causes me to lose interest, is poor writing.

Realism/authenticity is a must for sure. There is a certain level of detail in writing style that is good too. Obviously when there's poor grammar or spelling errors it just makes the whole thing silly.

Stories that revolve around a male doc who has a female patient who just can't wait to have sex with him. Puh-leeze!

It appears that some have a difficult time distinguishing between fantasy and reality. Not all respond to fantasy scenarios in the same way. I really enjoy reading about real posts that might also be erotic. For a site that attracts people apparently in touch with their bodies, its hard for me to understand that many still have a difficult time referring to their body parts in real terms and that so many are embarrassed when asked to undress during an exam. Although with no scientific research, I have noticed that it is mostly the American who have a hangup about nudity. The body in all shapes and sizes is a wonderful thing and should be appreciated.

I am guilty of my own pet peeve.

Spelling mistakes. My main problem is that I use a phone, therefore not always as accurate as a keyboard. But once I spot my own errors I usually edit to correct.

I should get into the habit of reading before posting I guess.

In stories, sometimes the use of correct terms for body parts won't work or break the atmosphere. But on the other hand, the use of private words, slang or otherwise, might not be appreciated by some readers. Infantile words can be problematic for instance.

So it is often difficult to find the right balance. And it's not always possible to come up with the word you are looking for on demand. I've found it's useful to make lists of synonyms for intimate body parts. That way you won't end up wracking your brain or needlessly surfing the net ...

I prefer to read those that seem true to life with realistic details and not not far-fetched, bordering on science fiction. However, that being said, I do understand on a site like this that people may genuinely have a medfet fantasy in those type of stories and I do respect their right to create those type of stories. They do not need to be liked or enjoyed by all people. This is what sites such as this should celebrate, that there are a whole lot of different fetishes out there that people do have. It would be a boring world if everyone liked the same things or saw things in the exact same way as everyone else. Who knows, maybe it would inspire people to explore fetishes they may have never considered to try before. Nothing wrong in that. I know that I, personally, have been inspired by things on this site to try new fetishes I had never considered before...and most of them I have found out that I enjoy now. Give people credit for having the guts to try writing a story and even more credit that they had the guts to share it.

I agree with a lot of these responses. If anyone has a favorite go-to story, please message me. I‘m starting to write myself and would love some inspo.

@Rachel_Puck: The stories formerly posted on speculumpages.com's Page 7 by an author called “Tom” are, in my humble opinion, some of the best in this genre. Many of them have been reposted here, look for “Tom” in the library.

The stories formerly posted on speculumpages.com's

Ages ago, I always enjoyed reading the original speculumpages.com. I don't know who runs the site now, but I found that there are several of my stories posted there that are simply attributed to “admin” instead of me. I don't mind them being there, I just wish I received the proper credit for authoring them. 😢

@JimmyJohnson I prefer accessing the original SpeculumPages on the Wayback Machine or one of my local site rips: http://web.archive.org/web/20050221021245/http://www.speculumpages.com/index1.html

SO many good stories to be explored there!

The real honest-to-goodness original Speculumpages site was taken down long ago, around 2004 or so. If there still is a site by that name operating, it has nothing whatsoever to do with the original. They must have bought the domain name hoping to profit from its former renown.

When I helped on Specpages, the policy was never to credit any author by name or email or whatever, unless the author who submitted the story, expressly asked. From what I remember, few of the authors who submitted stories wished to be known. Most preferred anonymity. And we had not a few flaps when some authors who had been outed to friends or family or colleagues at work for writing a Specpages story, desperately wanted their stories taken down. We always complied of course and the default was to post stories anonymously unless expressly asked.

Haven't seen this one mentioned yet: stories that stray close to incest. That'll make me stop reading, right pronto. It's a little bit common among medfet stories for some reason.

First person stories.

Stories that focus exclusively on the physical and ignore the mental.

Sex between the doctor and patient.

Stories that get tooooo unrealistic. I don't need it to be 100% rock solid as if the author just finished medical school, but if it goes far astray it will seem corny. It has to let me suspend disbelief. Some of that is in the setup though. How the author builds the world and what makes sense in that world.

Which leads me to... lack of world building.

I hate it when most of the medical stuff is only briefly described while most of it is about the sexual stuff.

Unrealistic aspects to how the exam is conducted. No examiner is going to insert a finger into the patient’s rectum to lubricate it before inserting the thermometer. It is simply not done. Lubricating the thermometer first is more than adequate. Plus the sequence takes the excitement out of it. What’s a skinny little glass rod after a fat finger. Two fingers for a rectal exam is pretty darn unlikely too.
