They just dragged out the stock stereotypes. However, my CP, Karin Tabke, who writes for Aphrodisia and for Pocket's erotica line, had her Aphrodisia cover shown three or four times on that show, and all in all, it put a positive spin on the erotica genre and by extension, the whole romance genre, so like Nicole, I didn't get to annoyed about it.

That may not be true (as we enlightened readers know), but that isn't what the media thinks. So I figured I'd let it go.
