  4. Important Info on Story Codes by Anonymous Coward · · Score: -1, Offtopic

    M An adult man (18 or older)

    m Boy - Teenager (13 - 17)

    b* Boy - Preteen (age 12 or younger)

    F An adult woman (18 or older)

    f Girl - Teenager (13 - 17)

    g* Girl - Preteen (age 12 or younger)

    Some examples of how these are used:

    MF Heterosexual adult sex

    mf Young heterosexual sex

    FF Homosexual adult female sex

    MM* Homosexual adult male sex

    ff Young lesbian sex

    mm* Homosexual, young male sex

    Mg* or mF Permutations of this are an adult having sex with a minor.

    + 2 or more of the same sex, that is

    M+F Several men having sex with the same woman

    MF+ Several women having sex with the same man

    M+F+ They all mix it up

    MF mf Two couples, not a foursome

    fsolo e.g. Masturbation by an adolescent girl.

    When these are not sufficient to distinguish who is doing what with whom, there is a discussion of connectors, ~, (or /) in http://www.asstr.org/~Uther_Pendragon/code/subtle. htm The FAQ on coding subtleties.

    Fembot A female robot, designed to give sexual pleasure.
