I would still like to see a 'historical' category.
Medieval lesbian princesses, roman gladiatorial orgies, victorian high-society blowjobs, etc...
Well now that Liz describes it like that I realise how much I've been missing a historical category
How about a 'blank' category, where the author decides for themselves which genre to use...
We could add Big Titted Red Headed Women Wearing No Panties Who Ride Ride Shetland Ponies To Group Sex Orgies On Friday Evenings When It's Raining.
Actually, our categories already encompass everything we allow. It is always possible to narrow those down until we have hundreds of categories, but that would just be frustrating.

I DON'T like "revenge" because it suggests an inherent nastiness incompatible with current guidelines..
(Written well, you could include the theme in existing categories...)
I LOVE "historical'. We have a LOT of these already, but I love the theme.
Otherwise, I think we've got it covered.
xx SF
Historical sounds like a great idea. hmmm....
I like medieval, a good idea, and perhaps seeing it would push other authors themselves to take the challenge.
Another suggestion for categories I wouldn't mind seeing is role play. I'm not sure if you guys would agree as it could just be a tag, but so could things like anal per e.g or most other categories. It does have a completely different set of characteristics, even more so than anal. To emphasise my point, you can't just decide upon role play mid sex unlike anal. (not saying anal should be a tag, I like it as a category, as I can filter it out on the most part)
A little bit away from categories, and more so to the formatting side of things, which has also been discussed within this forum. I think that love stories, being more so about love then sex (or so I would assume) should allow for no sex. We already have "love poems" and that doesn't require to have sex in it, so why should love stories? I emphasis this further if its a story of several parts. Not all parts need to have sex. Especially if you're trying to build up the connection, love between two characters. Why would you even read a love story in the first place if you only cared about the sex? Now I know that one may say, just refer it to "novels" if its going to be long winded, but theres plenty of other multi-part stories in all other categories that are not shafted off, and lets face it, novels is one of the least read categories, and thats not fair for those who care about votes etc etc.
Also, I think a tab for collaborated stories, or the ability to display a story on both peoples profile is fair. Or I'm not sure whats possible and whats not, but could it be published under both authors name? and allow both authors to get equal credit? (if both of them agree upon that being fair).
Finally, could we perhaps be able to organise the stories on our profile better, as a reader (more so than a writer) it gets annoying trying to find a next part, or the part I was up to when its categorised in a completely different genre. On top of this I'm sure others would like to be able to organise their "series" or "charactors" per e.g sprites "blondie" tales.
Not having a go or anything, I've been a member of lush for a long time, and I'd like to see it as good as it could possibly be (and those suggestions in my mind are so) for the authors, cause you all deserve it, lush has the highest quality I've ever found and little nuances in formatting or categorising shouldn't get in the way off that.
Anyways, those are just my suggestions and all I ask for confederation, and if you agree than great, and if not, could I bother you all, to get an answer as to why?
Thanks in advanced.

Revenge works well enough as a tag, as an entire genre--no not feeling that.
Threesome, four-some, five-some... It is obvious why that would become problematic.
A historical category sounds good. It already has an established following outside of Lush as a separate and thriving genre. Besides that, it is well defined but not as limiting as some of the other suggestions. There is enough ambiguity there to offer a wide variety of tales within the category to keep it interesting and new.
I think revenge is something that would work. I think it offers a motive for erotic stories that is isn't covered in any other genre. Sex to counter blackmail, sex to get even with a boss whose been harassing her or fired her husband. Maybe he seduces his bosses daughter to humiliate him for keeping his career suppressed. The story lines are widely varied and yet go beyond reluctance or simple seduction.
The historical genre should be a no brainier. That's one I'd love to write in.
One more vote for historical and against revenge. I generally agree with Reggie above.
I'm down with history too....we could have a lot of fun with the erotic adventures of historical figures....I've got dibs on Ben Franklin....he had a hell of a time in Paris during the war and I'd gladly do the research and "interpretation"....
“It's nice sometimes to open up the heart a little and let some hurt come in. It proves you're still alive.”
I dunno why so many ppl are against revenge as a category. If ya don't like it, you don't need to bother reading them. I think it would be fun to add a little bit more darker sides of sexual lust into the site. It doesn't mean it is always going to be evil or bad. It seems more like that people are more against it because of the person who suggested it, instead of the actual category itself. Your tellin me more ppl are gonna want a history category over revenge. I see a lot of mods sayin no no no to revenge but yes yes yes to history. Let it be known a mod is who suggested history and revenge was by someone who is not.
I'm not a mod but I say yes to revenge.
I'd like to point out, cos I just checked. There is pages and pages and pages of revenged titled stories and tagged. I think that would be a clear sign it would make a good category.
