Hmm...

Is it wrong to track a post merely because you're sure wank's about to kick off and you don't want to miss it?

Comments

No but it is wrong not to pm people and let them share the fun :)

in other news you wrote more fic yet???

*looks under journal carpet*

I need more fic :P

[derryderrydown.livejournal.com]

Tell me where it is and I'll tell you if you're wrong. *g*

::grin:: The mods over at gibbs_dinozzo have just posted about how genderfuck stories aren't allowed. There seems to be a distinct undercurrent of "We don't want icky vaginas in our porn" in some of the comments from the post that kicked off the question and I may be reading too much into it, but the only thought it's leaving me with is, "Wow, I really gotta get around to leaving that place..."

[moonlettuce.livejournal.com]

The mods of gibbs_dinozzo have just done a blanket ban on genderfuck stories, saying they don't want het posted. It's now made me want to write female!Gibbs/female!DiNozzo 'cause, dude, that's still slash ::grin::

I haven't written anything else, yet, but I'm eyeing the picture post and thinking about strip chess. (Why, yes, I go for the lowest common denominator, why ever do you ask? ;D)

[mrstotten.livejournal.com]

I will never understand that!!! the beauty of fandom is the freedom to express your ideas in the way you want to!!!!

and ooo Strip chess sounds AWESOME

you should totally write that *cough*enables*cough*

[derryderrydown.livejournal.com]

Stay classy, fandom!

[c00kie.livejournal.com]

Oh, well that's just fail.

[leyenn.livejournal.com]

Surely that's what the post tracking function is for, isn't it?

[moonlettuce.livejournal.com]

::grin:: True :D

[moonlettuce.livejournal.com]

Muchly my thought when I saw it.

[moonlettuce.livejournal.com]

Isn't it just ::sigh:: This is why we can't have nice things, Fandom...

[moonlettuce.livejournal.com]

::ahem:: I may have just started writing it...

Damn your enablement ::grin::

[janedavitt.livejournal.com]

If it's wrong, I don't want to be right ;-)

[moonlettuce.livejournal.com]

I always seem to miss the wank when it happens and then hear about it afterwards, so at least this time, I'll know what's going on if anything does happen ::grin::

[janedavitt.livejournal.com]

Though I saw the post and I kinda get their point. It's a slash comm, so het isn't going to go down well (no pun intended). Maybe they've had an influx of genderbending fics? Though on the other hand, they're still them no matter what their body is...or are they?

Ack, I need more hands!

[moonlettuce.livejournal.com]

It's an interesting question. If you're (generic you) are on the comm because you're a fan of the characters then surely you'll be a fan no matter what body they come in.

Like I mentioned further up, maybe I'm reading too much into it, but some of the comments gave me pause.

And more hands would be awesome :D

[janedavitt.livejournal.com]

Yes, true -- but I guess wanting some hot m/m interaction is a draw too ;-)

[colacube.livejournal.com]

Only if it's wrong to join a members only comm in a fandom you're not into just because someone on your flist posted that it had wank on it. (And it did. It was beautiful. ;p)

Having read the post I'm confused. If it was a slash comm I could see it... (I know het comms that accept genderbending fic if it ends up M/F) but it's not a slash comm, it's a pairing comm. So surely the pairing should be fine?

[temaris.livejournal.com]

When faced with the question on another pairing specific comm which I co-mod, we came down on 'it's the characters, not the body parts'. It was a dilemma though, & not everyone was happy but in the end we felt that those who didn't like it could always scroll past, like they would for any other themes or authors that they didn't want to read.

[temaris.livejournal.com]

Oh fandom. Misogyny with a side of transphobia. Always so very awesome.

Edited to say: Jesus, I have to sit on my hands so hard to not reply to some of those comments.

[colacube.livejournal.com]

Mpreg is not real slash don't ya know. Because clearly that is logical. *rolls eyes*

[colacube.livejournal.com]

Some of these fandom folk are going to be so screwed if they ever get laid. They do realise they have an icky vagina of their very own right?

[temaris.livejournal.com]

Well sure. We wouldn't want icky girl parts adding impurities to the True Slash.

[colacube.livejournal.com]

Course not. What these fangirls do when they catch themselves in the mirror I have no clue though. Do they hide from their own ladyparts behind their hands?

[moonlettuce.livejournal.com]

Oh, hot m/m action is always a draw ;)

[moonlettuce.livejournal.com]

Okay, now you've got me curious. (And, yes, I understand that, as I may have done it myself ::grin::)

[moonlettuce.livejournal.com]

Tell me about it...

[janedavitt.livejournal.com]

::nods:: That makes sense.
