Since it's come to my attention that certain communities have been purposely posting troll secrets for the lulz, I'm going to start getting harsher on what counts as a non-troll secret, especially regarding the fandom involved.

ETA2: No, this isn't only SPN fandom. This goes for everyone else, too.

Just a heads up.

And apologies in advance if any real secret posters get caught up in this.

Well, it's as sane as any other capslock or lol comm. They just know when to laugh when fandom starts it misogynist, incest, homophobic, race-baiting, pedophile, and fat related drama. But not everyone shares the same sense of humor, I guess.

IDK, I really don't see that much wank in the SPN fandom. The only problem I have with it is the incest; I really don't see why people write/support that stuff.
I only notice the amount of internet drama because I lurk around too much wank report communities *g*. And I don't think that fandom actually takes incest outside of fanfiction. Or I hope not, at least.

Sadly....there are a lot that DO support real life incest. I have met a few. They REALLY see no problem with any incest at all.

Surely you jest.

I'm not. D: I wish I were joking. It's why I've stayed away from the fandom for a long time.

Damn. Well, I don't know what to say if that's true.

There is some very interesting writing out there the does involve wincest by authors who I don't THINK actually advocate it. As much as I really, really thought the writing would bother me, though, it hasn't. Heh - maybe I'm just not right in the head.

But there's tons and tons of gen that fantastic - you should at least give [livejournal.com profile] kroki_refur and [livejournal.com profile] buffyaddict13 (among others) a try for good gen fic.

I could give a direct link to the culprits. XD But I don't feel like adding on to the insanity. And I met one of them IRL....she gave me the creeps. Yes. There are some in Supernatural fandom, who REALLY support real life incest. When the person in question started talking about her sister in an EXTREMELY romantic light....I could not have the DO NOT WANT face fast enough.

I'm fine with incest IRL, as long as it's consensual, I just think it very rarely is.

But there's a case of siblings who were adopted by different people, met when they were adults, got married, and then found out they were siblings. Personally? I don't think I have ANY right to tell them how to deal with that situation. If they want to stay together, that is up to them.

Incest is not inherently bad, IMO, it's just that the majority of the time it involves abuse of power, and abuse of power is inherently bad.

I don't think my feelings on this actually up the average level of crazy in my fandom, but you might well feel differently. Just chipping in with my side of things. If you're not interested in discussing it, feel free to ignore me. :)

I SUPPORT REAL LIFE INCEST.
