I'm fairly new here but a long-time lurker from the ASN days, if that gives me any more standing to initiate a contest. I don't consider myself a great writer of erotic stories - I have good ideas but can't really finish them - and more importantly can never get off to my own stories, having to rely on others for storytelling. It appears I've come to the right place for that.
I'm an appreciator of the accidental nudity/wardrobe malfunction genre, and feel that it could be fleshed out even more with its own contest. The three stories I think should serve as "templates" for these contest entries (but all of which fall short in some respect that I'll note/imply below) are https://nficstoryboard.com/content/fami ... st-repost/ "The Family Dentist" by donjuan (probably still my all-time favorite story), viewtopic.php?f=4&t=2119"The Ripple Effect" by mastergepetto (even in its unfinished state), and viewtopic.php?f=4&t=1348"Melissa's Journey Home" by Juncker.
The title is self-explanatory, but here are the official/formal "rules":
- The protagonist must begin the story fully clothed. This includes underwear and other "proper clothing", so no swimsuits/beach scenarios or going commando.
- The protagonist must become fully nude. I'll exempt heels and stockings if appropriate. I'll also add that this nudity must be in real life (well, in-universe real, anyway), so no "X-ray glasses" or virtual reality or other AI shenanigans.
- The nudity must not be intentional on anybody's part. So, no getting stripped by a crowd, for example, or other "forcibly stripped" genres. Intentionally stripped by someone else is still intentionally stripped. The Family Dentist in particular kind of skirts this line (and the Ripple Effect violates it), but we can play it by ear.
- The nudity must be uncalled for. Probably implied by the premise, but nothing medical, bathing, swimming, etc. It must also be in some sense "unwanted", putting the "E" in "ENF", though how mean-spirited you want to be with your characters is up to you.
- No magic, fantasy, dystopia, or science fiction. The story must be set in real life and at least superficially plausible with our macroscopic Newtonian physics (that also means no "clothes quantum tunnel off our lady" ) and modern-ish Western-adjacent society (no "Handmaid's Tale"-ing it).
- Also, this is an ENF-only contest; male nudity is permitted but must be incidental.
- Unpredictability This is number one, and much of what brings me towards this genre. Many stories you see in the ENF genre you can deduce broadly how it's going to go - "lost bet", "dare", "magic", etc. - in the first paragraph if not the first sentence. I think stories like the Ripple Effect and especially the Family Dentist excel in basically not giving you any clues as to how clothing gets removed.
- Variety This is also important. Stories like "Shirley slammed her skirt into the file cabinet, and began to walk away, tearing it off. She then fell towards the desk and her blouse got caught on a nail, tearing it off her body," are what I'm afraid of in this contest. Clothes getting torn off repeatedly is not only unrealistic but rather dull and repetitive.
- Detail Don't rush the hot parts! Enough said.
- Conciseness The "Unintentional Nudist" series is legendary but drags on and on. I'd like stories that are more self-contained and not too long (but, again, not at the expense of the details said above.
- Being naked during a church service/sermon/prayer/mass. I do not include Sunday school (or equivalent) in this.
- Being naked in a busy city street, somewhere in Manhattan/Chicago/San Francisco/Miami/LA/London/Paris, or similar city.
- Being naked in front of family during the holidays; this is also season appropriate.
- Getting arrested and/or suffering legal consequences for the nudity, depending on the desired level of mean-spiritedness.
