While most of my shares are food for the male lower brain (come on, we know with what men are thinking most of the time, right ?), I think that Cinderella, here, is mostly food for the male upper brain. Oh, and sorry I took so long sharing it, it had slipped under my radar until today, when a kind person called Sin Of Seto told me about it, thank you man !

In short, it’s an adultery work, nothing ugly, simply a woman realizing at last she is beautiful and can rightly expect to love and respect herself and the pleasures her body can offer. And who cares if this is thanks to a third-party Charming, after all, it was just a one night stand :)
How to say it, it made me feel warm inside to read it, and yet I’m a guy. If you missed it until today, if you don’t rage at the idea of a woman having adultery (and if you’re not hypocritical enough to rage at it despite fapping to mangas showing men conquering women), I hope you may enjoy it too :)
Thanks a lot to Furios005 and Saha for this release !

I would say this one was written more for the *female* brain, both upper and lower. It has that sort of "romance novel" feel to it, with a woman being swept off her feet and made to feel young and beautiful again, if only for one night. I didn't mind the storyline, it wasn't like a normal cheating or NTR work in any way. There wasn't any real malice to what the woman did, and she went back to her normal life after the one night stand, so no real harm was done. Also, like Oliver said, no one would care at all if it was a guy in a story having a one night stand with a woman other than his wife. So, all in all, a good share. Thanks Sayo and Furios005 for the translation and funding, and thanks Oliver for sharing.

Yeah, you're right to say this was more written for females, indeed.

Well, if I am a hypocrite, at least I RAGE at adultery in BOTH partners. And it made me no friends when Tadonohito was translating that Omoitattara Chichijitsu thinggummy, let me tell you.

I'm sorry to inform you that a woman is not a piece of furniture that can only belong to another person.

While I would not go so far as to call her a cheating whore, I can't say I found any justification in her actions. She cheated on a good husband who we have no indication was cheating on her or did anything but value her. It was a selfish act. Not to mention the fact that she forgot her wedding ring and didn't seem to have noticed until the guy showed up to give it back to her. (And does his presence there indicate at least the potential for further cheating? He didn't seem to feel bad that he'd slept with a married woman after all.)

I also have to admit I hate the 'she doesn't belong to him' argument. It isn't about belonging. It's about selfishly ignoring the feelings of someone else you have a commitment to. She threw aside her wedding vows for a night and didn't even feel bad about it. And the feeling it gave that if she'd been the one cheated on instead of cheating she'd have been completely outraged and distraught.

It's a pity. I liked the artwork and would probably have liked the story if not for the unjustified cheating.

You misunderstand…when I say "whore" I dont automatically think of women, I think of ALL people who cheat just to get somthing they dont really need.

Yeah… a less than 'ugly' adultery according to Oliver. But wrong is wrong. Blew off her Husband, who she originally wanted to do it for, and ran off to get laid like just any other cheating whore. Hard to like, artwork or not.

Harrumph. While it wasn't nearly as bad as it could have been, (it could have been orders of magnitude worse…) I still can't put this in my "like" pile. For all we-as-readers know, she could have had an equally great night with her husband, and feel equally young and beautiful. We weren't given any information on whether her husband would appreciate her and, seeing as my default assumption is that he would, the story ended up feeling wrong to me. All we got was one phrase: "It was much better than any sex I'd ever had"– still not enough for me to excuse her.

All that said, meh. Gimme Koi wo Suru no ga Shigoto Desu any day of the week.

Upper brain? Do we actually have to think when we read this?

OK, women aren't furniture… but what is a vow? What is a commitment? What is loyalty? Just words, Oliver? Are the words used to communicate your love, loyalty, and feelings meaningless? A waste of time? Worthless? If that's true than nothing has meaning. Nothing has value. Oliver, you're married, right? Think about what I just wrote… I don't think I need add anything else to this.

A human life is too long, too complex, too distressing, to allow absolutist concepts like "a commitment not allowing exceptions" to destroy it. Nothing good comes from absolutist concepts, nothing.

Life is about accepting small losses, small compromissions, of dealing with weaknesses instead of denying them, life is about understanding and forgiving in order to be mutually understood and forgiven. Otherwise life is just unbearable and is only a slow agony.

And I'm serious.

So if your loving wife wanted to explore another mans cock, you would automatically forgive her and call it life experience??

It is equally absolutist to suggest that all things should or even can be forgiven. The thing about 'a human life' is that it is such a complicated mixture of traits gelled from the accident of birth, the nurture of family, and the random events that shape views that no two people will have an identical moral scale. Nor will any two people have an identical response to any significant event (betrayal, moment of weakness).

The fact is that similar experiences can and will have vastly different impacts on differing people. What is minor to one person is major to another and cataclysmic to a third. There is no 'one size fits all' solution when it comes to human feelings and there is no one 'right' way to respond to such things.

It is true that there are philosophies that espouse that life is a series of small losses, compromises, and moments of weakness wherein people fail to restrain their baser impulses. It is also true that there are philosophies that espouse that we should aspire to be better than the sum of our frailties. That while we must acknowledge our imperfections such recognition should not serve as an excuse to indulge them but as a constructive foundation towards trying to be better people.

You know… at the end of the day, although I didn't like this manga, I can tell why you liked it. There's a woman feeling joy at being a seductress again; you liked the fact that she regained her sexuality, like all human beings should. I get it.

What I *really* fail to understand, however, is why you feel the need to defend it so strongly. I mean, take a look at your own comments: you're making guesses about the moral outlooks of people you've never met, based solely on double-digit word-count opinions they've spoken on a short work of fiction. Your responses ring much more sentimental than logical to my ears.

Please, offer your guests the courtesy of not assuming things about them. You wouldn't like others to do that to you; please believe me when I say that.

This one is from a manga called Desire… is adult manga so is most softcore and H stuff in it but tells of a story of a man finding what he desire most after an encounter… would love to see it finish scanned and translated though.

I checked out the raws for the series, indeed this is the penultimate chapter of Desire Volume 15. Sadly, with exception of the first one and a half volumes, the whole damn manga seems to be about the endless sexual exploits of the guy, with every chapter showing a new woman eager to get into his pantso.0…the first season ended with 25 volumes, and now there's a 2nd season, ongoing at 7 volumes, and from what I've read about it, the story's the same deal as season 1:|

Translation wise, currently at season 1 vol 5 for english, so won't be seeing the rest of vol 15 anytime soon. I've looked around in chinese forums and found they've got it in chinese up to vol 22, though the pictures are very small.

Anyhow, thanks Oliver for sharing this.

I like this manga and I am a married man.

What intrigues me mainly is the woman's perspective on the matter of having a one night stand with a random stranger.

Not being hypocritical, as far as the cheating goes, I will be mad if I found out she cheated on me. but of course the rational side of me will take for an issue how the psychological effect of "familiarity" when it comes to a long term relationships.

All I can say about the issue is, sex is not the only factor that you weigh in your relationship.

Fidelity and trust is.

What if her job is a prostitute, porn star, or anything that involves such activities? You need to understand that marriage is beyond sex as it is about the bond the keeps you together. Someone who is there with you through thick and thin and all that stuff.

My wife and I are discussing how flawed the concept of marriage is from time to time and how our selfishness to treat the other as a possession gets in our way of thinking when it comes to this issue.
we are actually on our 8th year together.

Sorry for the broken english as it is not my native language.

I think this story is more for married women Oliver! Not that i'm complaining. Most of your stories are for en. Still, cheating is not really my thing. I liked the artwork, hated the censorship, and applaud the author for doing something outside the norm. Thanks for the share!
