No, I am not saying all lemon writers are sick bastards. Just some of

to lemony land.

People are going to hate me for this post. I just know it. But, after 
seeing lemon after lemon pop up, I have got to know why people write 
these things. Do you guys want to gross others out? Do you want to 
invoke, um, pleasure into your readers? Do you just want to shock the 
world? 

Hmm. Why lemons? I'm assuming anyone who wrote stories depicting sex is
what you mean, which is a category I fit into rather cozily... Well, my
stories (yaoi, most of the time, hmm.. did i ever write a guy gal lemon?
maybe I should... but anyway) use the sex in a what if sort of way- ie,
what if these two were attracted to each other, what would happen? Or, the
sex is a way of getting them to open up to each other. Also, sex is always
an interesting dynamic in some relationships...

A few times, I'll admit to writing "pointless" lemons ^_^ ie, PWPs... but,
those are fun in the sense that I had fun writing it, and was a very
interesting exercise in a kind of writing I usually don't do. And I've
discovered my PWPs actually do have plots and a story, which is slightly
annoying, but I suppose makes me a better writer for it ^_-
