Empire S3 Ep3 - The SSL Review
Empire S3 Episode 3
I am currently up to date on Season 4 of Empire I'm happy to say, but I as yet neglected to do the SSL Review for the one SSL Reviewable moment in Season 3 (none is season 4 so far btw). It involves Ms. Anika Calhoun and the continuing power struggles between her and Mr. Luscious Lyon. It's a quick and easy SSL Review though, so this will be a fast read.
An SSL Review
SSL Reviews are depiction or discussions of female orgasm and/or masturbation and/or the clit. Only those specific things are reviewed - other discussions or depictions of sex or sexuality not within the above confines are for the most part not of interest to me. In these reviews, I critique the realism (for instance, were the physical things happening to that women while she orgasmed things that could realistically cause orgasm for a woman?) and also speak on what the depiction/discussion reflects from and adds to the larger cultural discussion around lady-gasms and female sexuality.
You can see all the SSL TV Reviews HERE (and as always you can find all the movie SSL Reviews HERE).
The Best Kind of UPS Delivery
To give a bit of a background - Anika and Luscious are previous lovers living in the same house but very much at odds at the moment. Previously, Luscious had been sitting at his desk talking to Anika when suddenly he started to kinda shudder and lose focus in a wierd way, and Anika in a moment of kindness got worried he was having a relapse of a disease he had been dealing with. But no - he was just coming from some random young woman under his desk sucking him off.
Well, now Luscious has come into his office and found Anika sitting at the desk.
Lucious: What are you doing in my office?
She gestures him to shhh, then points to a screen that is ticking up a number (this relates to plot - promise)
Anika: Almost...A little higher. Yes. Yes! Yes, Lucious! (throwing her head back)
Lucious: (a little confused.) You sound more excited than me (again he's referring to the upticking number situation)
Anika: (happily pushing her chair back from the desk) I am Lucious... oh, I am!
Then she leans down and a UPS dude rises up from under the desk with her hands on his chin as she chuckles
Anika: Don't worry. He was...(lazily and non-convincingly) just looking for my earring
Lucious picks up a gun as the guy runs out.
My Thoughts
This is an easy one. I always approve of a lady coming from getting ate out. It's stimulation to the outer parts of the vulva, presumably to the clitoral glans area, and by golly, that's exactly where a lady needs stimulation in order to come, just like dudes needing stimulation to their penises. So that's tops on the physical realism scale in my book.
I also like that when she's getting him back for his stunt she hits him back tit for tat. I think in some shows, the woman might hit back by having a dude fuck her under the desk (not sure how that would logistically work, but probably something having to do with movie magic) and coming that way, because for some dumbfuck reason people seem to think that a woman getting a penis inside her vagina is something that would make her come when there's no logical reason to believe that. Anyway, when a penis gets sucked, to me the only opposite female reaction is to get a clit sucked. Both things can cause orgasm and have that cazj, laid-back, power attitude, and Anika was write to get that UPS dude on his knees. Respect.
Vulva Rating
I think this is great orgasm equality content, so I'm gonna go 5 out of 5 vulvas.
