Ten Signs That You Read Too Much Slash
1. You interpret everything (textbooks, political debates, wildlife documentaries) through slashy goggles.
2. You honestly forget that not everyone in your fandom loves slash.
3. You assure these fans that you read “lots of gen”, although really, you don’t.
4. You try to create elaborate justifications for your slash obsession that can't be summarized as “two hot guys going at it.”
5. You read a great het fic and are startled to remember that there are two sexes.
6. That same great het fic has “the guys” getting married and living into old age as venerable heterosexual patriarchs, and you still mentally reinterpret it as an elaborate beard scheme.
7. You no longer tag your fanfic collection as “slash,” because that’s just understood.
8. Pre-slash stories leave you sadly unfulfilled.
9. Every gen fic written about “the guys” is a pre-slash story.
10. You write silly lists at 6:30 AM on a Wednesday morning assuming someone, somewhere will relate.
