Lickerish Library has been conceived as a much-needed outlet exploring and celebrating female sexuality in all its myriad forms. Created by women as an erotic alternative to blatant and often extreme pornography, we aim to encourage an exploration of areas that excite and stimulate both the mind and body through the diversity of our stories and accompanying imagery.
"Pornography is about dominance. Erotica is about mutuality.” - Gloria Steinem
Desire is at the heart of the Lickerish ethos, and our emphasis is on peeling back the subtle layers of sexuality to reveal what is so often concealed. By employing intelligent, candid language and striking visuals we paint a picture of what women really want and need.
“Authenticity is key. There are huge areas of pornography and erotica readily available that just don’t ring true for us. Our writers, all of whom are women, are writing from a place of truth; eclectic stories brimming with honesty, warmth, wit and empathy. They write about sexual encounters in all their messy and chaotic glory! It’s important to us that we portray what women want authentically, no matter how diverse the reality or fantasy that is being written” Fischer adds.
We hope that you enjoy viewing it as much as we do creating it!
