First, Sorry about the repeated posts. I know it sounds silly/ stupid, but I added/ edited some of the content multiple times & then I changed the title, but I wanted to make sure people got a notification to see the added/ edited content/ new title. I wasn't sure if they would see it otherwise. Again, sorry about that ( Read more... )

I am posting this here because I don't know where else to post it, and because I thought you all would get a chuckle out of it, and maybe have some fun discussing how the philosophers in question relate to slash fanfic. I did not write this. A friend did, but they don't have a LJ account. In all actuality, I think they sweded it from another fic, ( Read more... )

I don't know if this comm is moribund or what, but if anyone's still watching, I have something to offer. I wrote a post on similarities and differences between m/m slash and "lesbian" porn produced for a straight male audience and got some interesting comments.

Hi, all. I'm sure you've noticed that LJ/6A is at it again, only sneakier this time. Instead of showing deleted accounts with a strikethrough, they're just bolded, as if to hide the fact that they've been purged and delay any public outcry.

It baffles me that slash can generate such ( Read more... )

As this is a community interested in the political implications of slash, I thought I would post this here. If a piece of legislation currently going through the lawmaking process in Nigeria becomes law, one of the political implications for slashers will be that (in Nigeria) it is illegal and punishable by up to 5 years imprisonment even to read ( Read more... )

Hey everyone. I only just found this community and I must say I'm positively surprised that there is one such as it. I didn't just mean to shout in a random hello, though - I thought of a question I'd like to ask you people, just to see the answers others might have and hopefully to spark some interesting conversation over what they might tell us ( Read more... )

http://www.livejournal.com/users/emmagrant01/212299.html Is there more penetration in slashfic in general, or in slashfic written by females, or by non-gays? HP slashers tell the contents of their hearts. Thanks to our hostess, emmagrant01

Since I've only seen announcements of calls for papers from this community, I thought I would share some of my newbie-philosophical maunderings for the examination of the more experienced crew.
