Oh wow! The ending of this was perfect. You made it just absolutely wonderful and like others have said, it's just so non-judgemental and real.
All of the descriptions throughout were so effective and I loved how different all of the women were and you captured that brilliantly. My favourite line has got to be "He finds that her smile is honey, that her lips down there are lilac, and that she has the dirtiest mouth when she’s feeling especially ecstatic" You make something which others would make look cheesy just sound flawless and it just flows. That's probably one of my favourite things about your writing - the fact that it just flows together so well and all of the emotions never falter, and even though it’s not a massively long piece, you feel as though you have known the main character forever. I mean, that is just incredible in itself that you can create that feeling in just over 1000 words.
Honestly I don't think I can ever say enough how beautiful your writing is and this piece is just another shining example of what a brilliant author you really are. It ended not overly sappy or anything, it just ended peacefully. I loved it.
Secondly, I like how you chose eight different kinds of women, with the last one not actually being a woman. You captured a few of the many different ways women can act and preceive themselves beautifully, and the way the man just accepted them all without judging them was sweet. It showed that he really didn't care what they looked like or how they acted or what they did, because he was more interested in them as a person, and not as a sexual object.
And the last one, oh dear, the last one almost made me cry with how sweet it was. I loved how he took his time with her, unlike with the other girls, and how he didn't judge her or freak out or anything when she showed him her secret. And most of all, I loved how he was the happiest with her. To me, it showed that he truly loves her the just the way she is.
God, I could go on and on about how much I loved this and just how beautiful this was, but I think I'll stop. Overall, this was an amazing piece, and I think it showcases your exceptional talents as a writer very well. I loved reading this, and I could read it over and over and over many times. Great job.
