But at its core that's what it does. It reinforces the idea that homosexuality is a choice and can be changed on a whim.

How does it do that? Seriously, how does it do that? I think that people are capable of writing a fanfic without thinking that the character would actually do that. If I write a fanfic where a gay character has a straight relationship, that doesn't mean that I think he is or could be straight, any more than I think a character is gay if I write a slash fic, or that I think a character is an angel working in a coffee shop if I write an AU. I honestly don't understand how writing fanfiction reinforces the idea that homosexuality is a choice or can be changed on a whim.

...you seriously don't get how writing something that turns a canonically gay character straight is reinforcing the harmful concept that homosexuality is just a quirk that can be 'fixed'?

Seriously? Wow.

[(Anonymous)]

I honestly, seriously, do not see how it reinforces that. I'm not lying to you.

Like, okay, yes, if we're talking about something where a canonically gay character wakes up one day and decides "Wow, being gay is awful! I love Jesus now and also am totally straight!" then yes, that would be shit.

But if we're talking about just, in general, writing something with a ship involving a gay character in a het relationship, then no, I don't think that reinforces the concept that homosexuality is just a quirk. Because I don't think it has any bearing whatsoever on whether or not the character is gay in canon. I can write that fic, I can read that fic, and still think the character is completely and totally gay in canon.

yes, because fanfiction has such a big influence against the gay agenda

in other news, having a dubcon kink means everything you touch will die and all your sandwiches will be stale

[(Anonymous)]

but really, is that big of a deal if some wish fulfillment fanfic isn't 100% kosher?

[(Anonymous)]

yeah, this does kind of make me wonder how they feel about all the other stuff in fanfic. do they think that people who write fic involving rape are pro-rape? or that people who write vore actually want to eat people? because obviously everything in fanfic must reflect a person's real life beliefs

[(Anonymous)]

i haven't ever seen commentary on vore fic (not that i've seen much vore fic in general) but mean, there are definitely people in fandom who find rape fic to be questionable? and rape survivors who talk about how skeevy they find rape fic to be?

NA

This is true but the fs consensus kind of seems to be that it's fine as long as you can separate fantasy from reality so that's kind of a strange argument to bring up here
