It's not about porn. Like I said, I don't see anything wrong with preferring het fiction or relating to it more (I ship lots of het ships myself).

No, my post was more about how some shippers get on slashers' case for "ignoring" or "erasing" female characters and then act as though they are treating female characters right and respectfully.

And I think that's bull considering the number of het fics that are just using the female character as a proxy to get into a male character's pants.

That's not to say it's ALL het fic mind you or that slashers don't bash female characters (because some do).

But I think the contention that het inherently treats female characters better than slash needs to die. Because when I see those self-insert fics, I don't think it's respectful at all. In fact, in some ways, I think it's worse than just ignoring the female character (the way slashers do) because the author s destroying her personality to use her as a conduit.

Note that this isn't ALL het fics -- I'm specifically talking about self-insert fics and why their popularity means I have a problem with people who contend that slash inherently treats women worse. I think it's really a case by case basis.
