Blah.
I like erotica sometimes, like when I was twelve. Being a young man in America
meant finding a means to exposing oneself to pictures of provocative naked women
as part of experimentation. This wan't particularly romantic, it was a learning
experience. It seems much easier using the Internet. There is a large industry
around "romance", for example, it is a vertical media industry. By the time I
was twelve, I felt that I had read enough to have a general idea of what was
happening.
The Romantic period, which was about 150 years ago, was a movement that was in
some regards about decadence and perhaps moreso about the extremities of sense.
I think some of the republished writers, that have been available to read, from
that time are good.
There is a decent movie called "True Romance" but it's not Chinese.
Look, drawings of naked humans:
