- wistfuljane: Anger - I'm at the point where I have all this anger and nowhere for it to go so a post about anger as it relates to racism -
- duskpeterson: The m/m fiction versus gay fiction battle - So I'm a bit uncomfortable with this drawing of battle lines between genres and between genders and between sexual orientations, as though all of us belonged on one side or the other. -
- stoneself: closing for now on slash fail - harm to msm occurs in m/m.
the question is what to do after that. - oconel: [in camelot_fleet] The first rule of slash... - I do want to challenge something: if we do want to watch same sex couples on TV [...], why are we so intent to "keep the slash secret"? -
- cleolinda: what is this I don't even - But the thing about fandom is, it can get to be an echo chamber--social communities comprised, by definition, only of people who like something. They reinforce each other's enthusiasm, they egg each other on, they try to top each other. There may be no one there to say, "You know, I really don't think that writing fan letters in your own blood is the done thing around here." -
