hmm.. it's a little short. i recommend reading other reviews on the same porns to get some ideas.

also, if you can, go into detail about the production quality. how was lighting? sound? camera ... more
Thanks for the input. Honestly its been a while since I had watched any porn so I don't have much to go by. I am from the age of what they now call classic porn.

My first 2 porn club reviews were a disaster. I had no idea what to write, so they came out really short. I think I got a better grip on it now. I think its just so different from toys, everyone kind of hesitates on what to write.

Lots of people use biblical names without being biblical people. I've known more than a few Matts, Marks, Lukes, and Johns who were atheists/agnostics, and Isaiahs, and Sarahs, and ... heck, most common Romance language names have some kind of biblical root.

Hobbes was a philosopher. He had some interesting views about human nature...

If the toy still works, if it does does it still perform as new. (even if they dont like the toy I think its necessary to say the state the toy is in)

Ones that are several months out.

Unless a toy breaks, I don't think a followup is really very informative if it's closer than two months after the review was published.

I wrote them but afterwards, I was just kinda( OMG, were they any good???) It was a little nervewracking. Its hard to know what people want to know about the dvds.

dont panic! you can always look over the other reviews on the same porn and read them for help, and/or PM those who wrote the best reviews, in your opinion.

"um" is better than "like". People who use like as every other word-- in person and in writing--makes me want to hurt them.

I don't want to read about it three days later. I like to hear if you've discovered new ways to use the toy that changed your feelings for the better or worse - or if the toy died after ten uses or whatever.

For instance - my butterfly kiss died this week - water in the motor. It's supposed to be waterproof (I think my husband can kill anything).

Unfortunately, I already did an update so I'm going to note in the comments section later tonight about how it died "young" in my opinion and to be very careful about getting water in the motor.

Good question...

I like it when a person has more anecdotal follow ups. I like it when they include things about the toy that they've discovered, like if there is a learning curve, if the toy malfunctions, if the toy is something they regularly use etc.

yes, and if they've found new uses for it.

if it's sat in the drawer or is their new favorite toy. if it's coming apart, etc.

For lingerie, I think the best info you an add is how it holds up after being washed a few times. How a garment holds up in general helps, too- does it start falling apart/looking trashy after being worn a few times?

I'd go chapter by chapter, doing a short summary of each. Then finish with an over sum of the book. Maybe comment if you'd re-read it?
