M/M SURVEY: WHAT D'YOU WANNA SEE MORE OF?
Posted: Wed Feb 12, 2020 9:09 pm
So after having conducted many questionnaires and having reviewed the answers of both the "sockgag-related survey" and the "underwear gag survey" in the TUGs TALK section, it's come to my attention that the membership here supports a broad range of interests.
Between authors like Squirrel, Bondwriter, Charmides, MaxRoper, CJ2125, Xtc, Socjuc, DeeperThanRed, Volobond, NeedControl, Stoutland385, WrappedMouth, Beserkade12, EzraMarubayashi, Johnny and myself, the forum offers a wide array of stories for all tastes.
We also have a very healthy and supportive M/M audience to rely on and no shortage of stories to keep them occupied and entertained.
The forum features some short works, quick action-packed one-offs, as well as long, plot-oriented tales and novels.
In short, there's something on here for everyone.
Many of you who were fans of SockGagged (Jason's) works found yourselves dismayed at his sudden departure last year.
His unique style is very much missed (I'll be adding his works to the M/M index shortly: https://www.tugstories.com/viewtopic.php?f=26&t=4714).
The majority of his followers seem to have splintered into three groups, with Bondwriter, CJ2125 and myself each taking on a portion of his readership.
Bondwriter's works are filled with bondage-hungry, horny teen fooling around with each other. CJ's works present that often-missed "fun" element that many of SockGagged's fans were addicted to, and my own works seem to satisfy the portion of his readership that was into the humiliation and hazing aspect often present in his stories.
Still, his departure leaves a void in the array of stories and genres presented here, and his natural ability to write about sports teams, athletes, coaches and frat guys fooling around with each other seems to be a bit outside of our collective playing field.
From the results of the two surveys mentioned above, there definitely seems to be a market for stories involving coaches/sports teams/athletes. Authors and aspiring authors should take note of this.
Father/son scenarios continue to be very popular on here, as do brother vs brother themes.
There also seems to be a growing interest in work-related scenarios.
I invite the lot of you to check out the preliminary results of this survey to see what's popular and trending on the forum right now: https://www.tugstories.com/viewtopic.php?p=49421#p49421
Those who haven't participated on the surveys yet should hurry up and do so ASAP.
Having said all that, what elements would you like to see on the forum more often?
Try to be specific.
Flesh out your answers as much as you feel necessary.
I just wanna get a feel of what you guys would like more of.
Your answers can include anything from wanting a specific element more prominently featured in stories (ex: handgags, tickling, sleeping bags, etc) to genres, plots and character roles (ex: boss vs employee dynamics).
Just write about your heart's desire.
What would you personally like to see more of on the forum over the coming months and years?
Share your thoughts with us and don't be shy.
