Notes:
Hey #8, does this make it easier? (:
Secrets Left to Post: 20 pages, 498 secrets from Secret Submission Post #062.
Secrets Not Posted: [ 1 2 3 4 ] broken links, [ 1 2 3 4 5 6 ] not!secrets, 0 not!fandom, [ 1 2 3 ] too big, [ 1 ] repeat, [ 1 ] ...what.
Current Secret Submissions Post: here.
Suggestions, comments, and concerns should go here.
14, 16, 36, 37, 38, 50, 55
A lot of fans read all types of fiction, and goodfic generally always receive less comments regardless of genre. Yes, good slash (and presumably het?) fic always have a significantly lower amount of comments than the badfic, especially the long ones. Probably because it takes more out of the reader to say something about such fic.
Also, there's quite a lot of gen in all the fandoms I'm in at least; a lot of it's bad, of course (like all fic), but I've found more gen in certain fandoms than slash for the pairing I like.
16: Bah, this is misunderstanding feminism and the talk of female space in fandom again. The "female space" is the fact that we've been able to develop a place where our wishes and tastes weren't dictated and determined by men. Ideally, men would want to join such a place and accept it and hopefully have as much fun as we do in our style, so to speak.
36: I feel the same way, sort of. Only I've become more determined to become a professional translator, since I believe these people are idiots.
37+38 OTP? LOL. Most people are gigantic sick perverts (myself included). The human fantasy just works that way. XD
50: I think their art for Tsubasa and xxxHolic is very nice, actually. They do tend to go overboard with the melodrama, though I find the "eye-removal fetish" sort of funny. I'd wager that your friendslist wouldn't go on a rampage if you expressed your criticism in a calm and sane manner. Aggressive hatred tends to make people a bit defensive, you know.
55: I agree about the "cheating bastards" part, but I hardly think romance is "cheapening". Sure, if you replaced their friendship with romance I could understand the complaint, but simply adding it (it could be an unrealised romance for example) shouldn't destroy any preexisting feelings.
That said, I do prefer them as friends myself; I just really dislike the notion that romance is somehow less worth than friendship, or can turn friendship into something less.
