Re: "omg slash is so unrealistic"

I have a problem with "slash is so unrealistic" because it kind of assumes that it's inherently impossible for to guys to ever in the history of ever have that type of relationships, and gay relationships are a certain way that cannot be that.

I get formulaic yaoi or whatever is about as realistic as a ravishment romance novel. Theoretically possible, but pretty fantastical.

But any slash about two guys? Can't happen? Unless you're referring directly to the porn (in which case, whatever, but I agree, it's porn, does it have to be realistic?) but I here this argument about slash relationships in general.

I was talking particularly about the tendency that bi and gay guys have of getting on their high horses and pointing out how "women" are getting gay sex wrong in slash fic, assuming they know nothing about gay sex and have no idea it's not realistic because lol what do women know, amirite?

And somehow doesn't apply when women read and enjoy ravishment novels because everyone knows those aren't realistic but women really think slash fic sex is real guys. Really. They do! They think all real live gay men have sex like slash fic!

It's super secondhand embarrassing and sexist.

I agree with your other points though.

And it doesn't apply to men enjoying "lesbian" porn meant for straight men, or rapey het porn. If any woman got on a high horse about THAT, she'd be trashed as an anti-porn feminazi.
