My analysis of the effect of reading Snuff Island by Scouse on me.

Whilst the introduction, taking the reader through the politics and background of the story, was necessary it did seem a little slow in getting started. This aside the premise for story seemed all too credible. Having a well-defined foundation to the story helped by easing the suspension of belief for what was to follow. It seems, at least for myself, that erotism benefits from being able to place oneself in the situation mentally. It may be fantasy but if there is no link to reality then the erotic side of the story would entirely miss the mark as far as this reader is concerned. ‘Snuff Island’ by ‘Scouse’ successfully cleared this first hurdle. The mixing of real events and story elements worked very well even to the ‘Price Is Right’ parody towards the end. Although it seemed that the latter part of the story seemed to have a little too much humour to actually be successful as a turn-on.

I feel an opportunity was missed in the story when ‘Petra Mandelson’s’ meteoric rise through Securicon and her subsequent manipulation of the ‘Chairman’ in order to achieve control of ‘Snuff Island’ was brushed over somewhat. The erotic charge that a manipulative female can generate in a story by twisting supposedly powerful men to her whims was missed. It seemed a little to pat to have this chief of a major company merely to fall into bed with his bright new rising star and suddenly she is shipped off to take charge of the island. Perhaps she uncovered some secret fetish or some weakness that she used to her advantage... I shall never know. It did cross my mind that someone does not become chairman of a global company without being able to control and manipulate people. A missing element that could have been, for me at least, another arousing factor.

Now to the story proper, some ten- percent of the way into the piece, the true nature of Petra appears. It is now that the first real stirring of the erotic presents itself with her domination of the hapless ‘Mike’. His biggest crime it seems was to be in the wrong place at anytime. He is controlled with the carrot of life...his ultimate punishment being death. As he is made to undress the tone of the piece becomes more like the story I had expected and it is executed (forgive the term) rather well. It would have aroused me to a greater extent if Petra had taken her time and her pleasure in assaulting and abusing Mike prior to using him as a sex toy. In my experience with dominant ladies a great deal of their pleasure is making the slave wait and suffer, unsure of to what use he is to be put. Teasing and denial play a major role that is pretty much glossed over in this short story.

This comment seems to hold true for the majority of the story with a great deal of time being spent on a killing fetish. A fetish that is possibly the natural conclusion of forced femdom. The ultimate power over someone is that of life or death. Unfortunately this is an area which far beyond any limits I myself would ever agree to. The death scenes while embodying every element of forced control required to be erotic somehow completely leave me flaccid. It is the threat of pain and torture that I find stimulating. Not the killing of pathetic prisoners for amusement. It is far more exciting to me to be in the hands of a sane dominatrix than at the mercy of a mass murderer.

On the whole I found the story very readable it was only on the odd occasion that it manage to stir my sexual desire. Suzy and Mandy’s session with the two prisoners holding the best of these. The forced arse licking and the cleaning out of Mandy’s boyfriend spent semen causing a major erection in this reader. This was the one point in the story I really felt I could get into. I was aroused by these acts and by their account being given from the third person perspective, that of Suzy. In fact the whole scene worked well for me until the death scene. This again raised the same problem for me. Having recently lost a loved one perhaps it isn’t so surprising that my views of death are so non-sexual.

All in all the story would probably work better as a longer affair like a novel or novelette as there did seem to be areas where it might profit from even more detail and extra elements, such as the teasing mentioned previously. Alternately concentrating on one group in the story and developing it to a point where there is more erotic content may have improved things. The fate of the prisoner ‘Danny’ and his memory full of facts is left unclear. I felt some conclusion for him would have been better though judging by the way the rest of the story went I can probably guess where the author would have went.

The jumping from one set of characters to another over the short story in some ways diminished the erotic content for me. Reading this sort of story for me has one main objective to be turned on. I felt the stop start nature of the story worked against the desired building to a climax. Perhaps the author was himself practising a little tease and denial. Ultimately the whole story didn’t work for me, though as mentioned this may be for my own personal reasons rather than some major writing flaw. Goodness knows the story contained some very well thought out factors and some interesting moments. I just found the death thing a turn off I’m afraid.
