Women use eReaders to hide the fact that they read romance (and dirtier) novels. Whether they're looked down upon or not is sort of secondary to women's embarrassment when caught with the stuff.

Most women say they want a man who is willing to take risks, and willing to take control and make all the big decisions. Someone who likes to walk a lot and go outdoors a lot.

Basically, what they want is a rapist. (Alternatively: a serial killer)

I could be wrong, but neither of those books are autobiographical, but Hustler has actual photos of living people, and lots of them. That may be why you'd get dirty looks reading Hustler but not the others.

Another reason might be that 50 Shades is widely known as Mommy porn, and the Mommies are probably the ones who'd be giving you the dirty looks while you read the articles in Hustler in front of their kids in the neighborhood park. Yes, it's a double-standard.
Ok, then substitute Hustler with any of the many volumes of Penthouse letters that get published in actual book form, with no pictures (so far as I know) and possibly no more veracity then 50 Shades or Twilight.
Sad fact about the matter:
Many people would not know what these are to begin with and probably leave the reader alone . .

Letters to Penthouse is still about real people. Some of it may be fantasy letters, but I would guess that the majority of the letters are from real people about their real thoughts and feelings.

More than that is probably the stereotype associated with Penthouse the magazine. That is, if the Soccer Moms know that Letters to Penthouse is associated with the skinmag, and not about postage to/from the resident of the top floor of a skyrise apartment building.

Clearly, you've never actually read a Penthouse letter.

In my experience, the number of women who enjoy unprotected, unlubricated, and surprise anal sex is a statistically insignificant number. It's porn-logic all the way and that's how you know that they are fabrications.

That casts about 95% of the letters in question. The other 5% about cheerleaders and naughty policewomen might be true, but I wouldn't bet on it.

There's nothing fake about naughty policewomen and cheerleaders. That would destroy my reality.

I'm just reminded of the time my character was pack alpha in WW and the pack was named Gaia's Avengers.

Not that it's a statistically insignificant number, only that npcwhatever thought that really happened.

Really, they want Indiana Jones, or Han Solo, or Jack Ryan, or Rick Deckard. Really, any character played by Harrison Ford will do.

If I were a woman, I would want Harrison Ford. So there is a certain appeal to that line of reasoning.

Oh they say they do, but if you shoot a bunch of people, then grab them and kiss them, they get all angry and shit, and you say "But I'm just being Harrison Ford!" and they start hitting you, and you have to shoot them, and then you grab another, and the whole thing starts all over again, and, well, my point is, who wants to help me hide a hundred bodies?

In your choice of type and amount, even. Welcome to America, where we will find a way to make money out of fucking anything.

I don't want to know how you found this, Ted.

....though I may have business for them.
