Thanks to Cleis Press and Lambda Literary Foundation, I ended up with two copies of Lesbian Cowboys: Erotic Adventures by Sacchi Green and Rakelle Valencia. My overabundance is your gain, however, so let’s have a giveaway.
Take a look at my review of Lesbian Cowboys if you’d like to see the kind of thing you might expect in this book of erotica … it’s good. Quite good really. Definitely a lot of role play, a lot of gender play, a lot of hot sexy smut based in other time periods. Really worth reading.
To win: leave a comment on this post with your favorite role play scenario, or one thing that’s hot about cowboys (the dyke kind, or another kind, whatever), or the last time you went out west, or something else entirely.
If you’re out of the United States, I may ask you to send me a few bucks for shipping if it’s way expensive to mail it to you. Otherwise, it’ll be on my dime.
I’ll close the comments on Friday to give everyone a chance to chime in. Just make sure you leave a valid email address where I can contact you!
Why are cowboys hot? Boots and tight jeans.
Cowboy hats. enough said. lol
I grew up in Wyoming – land of the cowboy AND cowgirl. There is nothing that reminds me of home like the smell of wet leather…I seem to have more of a thing for them now that I'm living on the East Coast than I ever did when I could actually find a real one. Hmm…
Boots! Last time I was out west there were junk shops full of gorgeous cowboy boots.
I think cowboy might *be* my gender.
Oh gosh, attitude, outfit, the general mystique?
They've become a world-wide symbol of masculinity, and I can call myself or anyone Cowboy without replacing y's with i's.
Leather, leather, leather. And MORE leather. Lassos, tight jeans, and rolling around in the hay. Bull whips. Spurs. A barn with lots of dimly lit hallways. Sweat and dust and, oh: did I mention leather? Also, I AM a lesbian cowgirl. No, seriously: I've worked on quite a few ranches and have four pairs of chaps. My partner and I made that into a fun costume for pride this year: I was a cowgirl and she was my pony: she wore a harness and lead, and I carried a riding crop. After celebrating all day in the sun, sexual tension mounting (so to speak), the sex that night was very very fucking hot. I think this book needs to be on our bookshelf……help us out, Sinclair?
The hottest thing about cowboys (or cowgirls, for that matter) are the boots. Hands down.
The things that woman can do with a lasso! Some people think Shibari is the only true form of rope bondage, but they've never met a proper cowgirl who can leave you trussed and stuffed in a heartbeat!
Cowboys of whatever stripe make me think of lassos, muscles, calloused hands, and well-worn jeans. Mm-mm. Also horses, but that’s for the ten-year-old inside me rather than the kinky thrill!
Chaps are hot…especially when the cowgirl is wearing nothing but the tan she's gotten from days in the saddle.
That leather! Oh my do I ever love seeing a deviation from black leather.
Two-stepping is hot.
the swagger. oh i'm so weak in the knees when it comes to that kinda strut.. the only cock in the hen house, so to speak? :D
two words: assless chaps.
its all about accessibility and being rough & ready.
hmm thinking of my favorite role play scenario is hard!
But I have to say my fave role play scenario is, the warrior and the warrior's pet..:) It's something about that yell that makes me drop to my knees.
is this a giveaway where the comment is chosen randomly, or by the best comment left?
if it's the latter, I'm going to write another comment!
Sorry, I should have mentioned that in the post! I'll pick a comment at random by getting a random number generator at random.org.
Favorite role-play? Hard to pick! I really like being a bratty princess, but playing sailors is a favorite as well.
Cowboys are hot because of many things, including spurs! Huzzah!
I am so lucky to live in the West, in real cowgirl country. My favorites are the collared, button-down, plaid shirts… when I undo each of those buttons, one by one, & I can see my cowgirl getting hotter and hotter with every one – *that* is satisfaction.
I just started a "reading is sexy" read-out-loud book club and am realizing I need to expand my horizons so…help!
Southern accents, tight jeans, plaid, the outdoors- yes please. Add beer :)
One of my favorite fantasies is me (as a baby butch) getting caught masquerading as a man by a femme in a position of authority, who, upon discovery, obviously has little choice but to punish and take advantage of my vulnerability. Sometimes, when the mood strikes me, my femme mistress turns out to have been in drag as well. (Oh my!)
(Upon reading your Lesbian Cowboys Erotica, this fantasy has quickly modified itself to be drag cowboy getting caught by a saloon mistress. I am going to have fun with this one)
Whats not to like about cowboys? Though my favorite might be princess and unicorn lol
Spurs! *purrrrrr….
Oh goodness.
I've always had serious fantasies about damsel-in-distress style encounters with Wild West types, and when I moved to Texas those fantasies only expanded with the abundance of leather, boots, chaps, spurs, hats, plaid. Really I'd just like to be scooped up and plopped on the back of a horse, only to find that I'm not terribly safe with my cowboy, either.
I always have rope on hand, though.
My favorite roleplay is Owner/puppy. I love scampering on hands and knees, wearing my collar, shaking water off after my bath and licking whatever I'm told to. :)
and while we are at it… What I love about the wild wild West is the dry dry heat. I picture the idyllic sex scene starting there, when (in slow-motion) the cowboy/girl takes off their hat, flips back their hair, and pours water all over themselves. I suppose you could do that here in Texas, yes, but the humidity will drench you before you even reach for the glass. And not in a good way, either.
