@alyssa mm i think i have complex opinions regarding the structure and explicitness of sex scenes in porn comics but as a general rule i tend to find dialogue distracting, at least partially because i think it is hard to convey tone and subtle emotions through speechbubbles, so it just reads as overly blunt to me
this is a bit ironic because i do wish there was more talking in video porn, and i rely on it in written porn as well (although i also think a lot of porn writers are bad at this)
it might be that my problem isn't dialogue per se so much as BAD dialogue and i have high standards
@Lady that’s fair. my preference for it is definitely heavily influenced by my personal cognitive idiosyncrasies. for comparison i think at absolute minimum 1/3rd of most pages should be speech bubble in action comics.
@Lady both. the latter is mostly because it’s hard for me to read comics without regular dialog. i’m a very textual person. but also dialog can convey the mood of the participants and it can be more enjoyable to read if they’re having a fun time with it.
