Re: 64.
The problem is that everything is considered subtext in fandom. Everything.
These two people are good friends. Logically we can conclude that they want to have sex. These two people hate each other. No, wait, it's just sexual tension. These two people have never met before. But they would totally do each other on sight if they did.
Like I said. Porn? Fine. Making horribly contrived explanations for porn? Why.
Re: 64.
for the record though, while i don't get off to 'slash' i'm not offended by it (unless it's shota)
sometimes subtext can be at least a little plausible, though, roz, you must admit
even though the thought of them doinking isn't my thing, phoenix and edgeworth por ejemplo are both pretty gay for each other
ADMIT IT
Re: 64.
I'm not offended by it either, really. It just makes me go "Wait what" sometimes.
That's why I only specified at least 86% of the time, you see. I didn't say that it was all bullshit, just most of it.
Re: 64.
i wonder how much ghostbusters slash there is out there
probably a lot
Re: 64.
bonus points if they're not masculine in the slightest or are perhaps in a canon relationship with a female (IN DENIAL)
Re: 64.
On an unrelated note, I don't think I've mentioned this before, but that icon is very A+++.
Re: 64.
elwood is always A+
Re: 64.
BUT IT'S STILL PRETTY GOOD SO YOU GET A GOLD STAR AND SOME CAPSLOCK.
Re: 64.
FUCK I THOUGHT YOU WERE
HOW PRESUMPUOUS OF ME i'm sorry :
Re: 64.
Re: 64.
Re: 64.
Oh, we should just make that a subsection of Rule 34.
Re: 64.
Those two chicks over there going down on each other? JUST FRIENDS!
Re: 64.
What seems obvious to you may or may not be obvious to someone with a different perspective.
I'm also curious as to why same-sex pirings are being singled out here. What you're describing is exactly as rampant in het pairings.
Re: 64.
but from my experience as an anime fan it isn't
rest assured i don't discriminate but i've come across far less ranting and fangirl slobbering gibberish over het pairings compared to the mounds of "subtext" found for yaoi ones
and not to accuse you, but slash/yaoi fangirls seem to be very defensive and love to claim homophobia towards any naysayers
i probably opened up a can of worms there that has been covered extensively here on the lovely f!s but again, that's just my experience
Re: 64.
Re: 64.
i mean, i'm not saying that suggesting a character is attracted to another is always wrong if it isn't explicitly stated in canon
but you must admit fans frequently take it way too far and stretch theories far past believability
especially those dastardly yaoi fangirls everyone hates
Re: 64.
Also, the amount of slash vs. het in a given fandom fluctuates massively. FMA (anime) fandom might be slash-dominated, but Avatar belongs almost exclusively to the het, for instance. If there's a trend to which ones get what proportion, I think that it's relative to the number of strong female characters (This would be why Naruto fandom is slash-consumed, but One Piece fandom is better balanced). Which is ironic, as the first thing these fangirls do is ignore said strong character's motivations, strengths, and personality so that they can brainlessly hook them up with the angsty male lead, using them as a surrogate because they can't actually bump uglies with a fictional character.
(Which is not to say that there's anything inherently wrong with those ships, just the manner in which it's often portrayed)
Re: 64.
the only fandoms i've experienced in more than a passing fashion are one piece and house
OP is silly enough that it isn't common but you should see the shit posted in house comms
so much bitching and catfighting and creepy essays on who is having buttsex with whom
Re: 64.
This is why I've been referring to porn in general, not just slash. I'm not singling out anything, although it's not like I ever actually see het. I'm sure that it's running wild with just as many crackpot theories and such as any other type of fandom porn.
