* "Sister Mary Jean's Struggle" by Linda Jean (sex in the
convent) 4, 4, 4
* "Sister Mary Jean's Struggle" by Linda Jean (lindaj@cris.com). Some interesting things do happen in this story. For example, as a 12-year-old, the future ex-nun who narrates this story learns about sex by watching two older girls go at it with carrots and cucumbers. {There's a whole web page of jokes about nuns like that. Why did Sister Mary Jehosephat get kicked out of the convent? For doing pushups in the cucumber patch. How many nuns does it take to screw in a lightbulb? Just two; but it's difficult to get two nuns and a cucumber inside a lightbulb in the first place. Etc. } The basic problems with the story are that it has no coherent plot and that it's largely illiterate. The author apparently ran it through a spellcheck; but that just turned some of the spelling mistakes into usage bloopers. For example, the girl watches the other girls masturbate in her "secrete place," which, I presume, would be a place where she oozes through the walls. Why is this plot set among nuns? Well, because nuns have that legendary evil innocence, I suppose. Actually, the author explains her rationale in her disclaimer with the following non sequitur: "I want to document what has happen to me over the last 13 years. Second- maybe some girl thinking of becoming a nun like I did may just think twice if she finds sex to be what she desires most in life like I do!" Go figure. I would make my pitch in defense of nuns - actually, they are fairly normal people, etc.; but a correspondent once told me that was like telling the late night comedians to stop telling offensive jokes about Jehovah's Witnesses and the Amish. According to his theory, about as many nuns are going to read this story and become offended as Amish are going to watch Jay Leno and get offended by Amish jokes. If you want a story that treats nuns in a sexy but literate manner, try Wollstonecraft's "The Novice," Uncle Mike's "The Flying Nun," BillyG's "Sister Mary Joseph," or Ann Douglas's "Sarah and Sister Theresa."
