This is conveyed so clearly in a super understandable manner, thank you ♥︎

Thank you for checking it out, Cozmo!

Sadly, I think there's a bigger chunk of the romance market that only chooses to not (openly) read erotica BECAUSE they think it makes them superior to those of us that do, and as much as that bothers me, they've got money on the table too. Maybe something like 'modest' or 'delicate' might work? I feel like their connotations are more ambiguous than neutral, so people can read them however they like.

I'll agree about the pearl-clutching superiority. "Closed door" or "fade to black" are things I might still give a shot, if the story seems decent. But "clean" romance? Hard (ha!) pass.

May I ask what happened to the crocheting channel?

[@TheDarqProject]

I've unarchived all the old craft videos and started a new channel for writing things. There likely won't be much for new uploads here, though!
