Some days, you gotta let it out.
Nov. 14th, 2003 04:19 pmOn slash: I don't see the point of turning two men into women, and then pairing them together. What you're looking for is called "femmeslash."
Not all slash does this. The vast majority of it, I've found, does. Kind of kicks the theory of "two hot guys together" in the teeth. See, that I can get. The turning one or more of them into women, I do not. If you're going to do that, either actually use female characters, or keep them as men. Doing otherwise is an atrocity that makes me want to laugh and laugh and laugh and gouge my eyes out if they don't first fall out of my head from rolling too hard.
Actually, do what you want. But dude. Call it as it is.
Why I can can hardly read slash anymore: Is fluffy DRECK. About two women with penises.
So. If you have slash recs that don't have the above limitations, rec here so that I might see the attraction once more. Otherwise, I can get fluffy dreck from het fics, which aren't nearly as supercilious, and has the added bonus of actually featuring at least one man.
