/lit/ - Literature

What's a good book that deals with sadomasochism from a philosophical, historical, or psychological perspective? Especially as connected with modernity. I'm reading Foucault at the moment but I'm disappointed that he hasn't covered it, at least not yet, especially given his discussions of power and pleasure.

Why are most "sex scenes" in literature vanilla? Whenever BDSM is covered (a rarity) it seems to be the focus of the whole work. Is there any instance of a book having a consensual "BDSM scene" that isn't definitive of the work and could just as well have been a vanilla scene? I understand that such scenes should be a minority even if they are represented, but I have yet to come across a single one myself, with the exception of some of that weird shit in Gravity's Rainbow which I'm not sure was even meant to be sexy.

2d lolis are superior and a miracle achieved by human cognitive abilities. Everything else is degenerate. 2d is pure constructed idealism and if you dont get it you are not a cultured man but a mental barbarian with shallow barbaric soul that resembles mud and is niggardly black.

No. I read all of it and it is nothing but mythos that is not even that great. You have to apply theology and hermeneutics to it for it to get interesting. All of abrahamic religion is a huge waste of time and followers of this dogma dosctrine are the most annoying communities of people known to man. There wasnt anyone more annoying then these. Christians are self hating nihilists who worship ascetism and death.

That is not to say muslims or jews are any better. The juden thinks they are the chosen ones like in some RPG and they act like it, corrupting and disrupting lives of other and being annoying pests they are. Muslims on the other hand are the emotionally stunted retarded child. They have to spread the Truth by any means necessary. They are not self hating cucks like christians so instead they turn your cheek upside down. They are the bringers of apocalypse and idiocracy.

Pick your virtue group and ascend to one of these and also prepare for infighting between denominations, the rebels inside who somehow thought having a different opinion is accepted and then there were many of them so it got accepted and now they celebrate in empty buildings.

The only good thing christianity brought is aesthetic and some philosophy works. Jews and Muslims should die in a fire though.

What would traditionalists who embrace strongly divergent gender roles - such as Nietzsche or Evola - say about female writers or intellectuals? Is their femininity necessarily damaged by these vocations? Can one be an "absolute woman" or "real woman" and, say, be familiar with philosophy and have opinions on it?

Imagine that one of your favorite novels is rewritten with the sex scenes replaced with BDSM scenes. Everything else in the novel stays the same. Is it degraded, improved, unchanged? Does the inclusion of "kinky" material make it erotica?
I'm curious not about BDSM in particular but whether sexual obsessions in general - fantasies and fetishes whose eroticism exceeds the TV-ready "sex scene" - have a place in great literature.
I always thought the sexualization of Imipolex in Gravity's Rainbow - it seemed akin to latex fetishism - was interesting, especially since it had more meaning than simply being provocative, and I've never encountered anything like that in literature since.
