I should think not. I haven't even heard of it. The idea!

I flicked thru in Asda. It's quite poor... and it's not a BDSM relationship, it's just abusive so far as I can see!

Personally I prefer 50 Sheds of Grey. Far more practical.  :D

Interesting that there doesn't seem to be a Fifty Shades of Gay as yet.

(Also interesting; in same-sex romance writing, the real trouble is with the pronouns! Think about it.)

I only have about 20 shades of grey :(

But that was enough for the 1/3000th scale ships I was painting  ;D

Aren't these all quotes from Sheds of Grey, or have I missed something ?  :-\

I convinced my mother that "50 shades of grey" was a paint chart. Nearly got her to ask for it in B&Q.

Er, No. I didn't even know what it was until my wife explained it to me.

I started reading it.  It is very poorly written - I couldn't make it as far as any of the 'kinky' bits.

Yes it is, and any woman in her right mind wouldn't put up with that sort of thing.
