The judges of the annual Bad Sex in Fiction award decided to spare readers this year from the usual cringeworthy passages. It seems fictional bad sex is just too much for folks to handle in the hellish coronavirus pandemic-stricken year of 2020. The judges of the annual prize “felt that the public had been subjected to too many bad things this year to justify exposing it to bad sex as well,” the magazine said.
“With lockdown regulations giving rise to all manner of novel sexual practices, the judges anticipate a rash of entries next year. Authors are reminded that cybersex and other forms of home entertainment fall within the purview of this award,” a spokesperson for the judges said in a statement. “Scenes set in fields, parks or back yards, or indoors with the windows open and fewer than six people present will not be exempt from scrutiny either,” the spokesperson added. Since 1993, the Bad Sex in Fiction Award has honored the year’s “most outstandingly awful scene of sexual description in an otherwise good novel”—past winners include Tom Wolfe and Morrissey.
