Games thread!

I started reading and writing Orig F/F because most of my fandoms are so male centric.

[(Anonymous)]

This is fairly common among the slashers I've hung around.

[(Anonymous)]

I'm having an identical problem tbh. I am a pansexual married to a woman but I only write m/m. I don't understand why I just can't ship femslash the same way! It's frustrating to me. I feel like I'm being a Bad Gay.

[(Anonymous)]

He really is an amazing actor.

[(Anonymous)]

I used to like m/m slash a lot more, but lately I've been liking the f/f, probably since Korrasami showed what the possibilities were.

[(Anonymous)]

TBH, I'm sometimes the same way. I prefer writing for kind of shallow fandoms just because I feel like the characterization is easier to pin down, but the drawback of that is that the female characters are often... not great. When I actually like the relationship between two female characters I get worried that I won't be able to write them well! And I think maybe a lot of people have a similar problem, so there's not as much F/F fic to read to keep myself excited about a ship, so I don't feel like writing as much, and I feel insecure about what I do write because when I write a rarepair I feel a responsibility to do a good job... a vicious cycle.

I dunno. It shouldn't stand the test of time, but I've been hearing some buzz about it. apparently all that's required to turn a rape into a romance is to swap the genders.

I'm being bitter, I know, you could also put it in a book and market it as chick lit, but the point remains, people seem a lot less skeeved by this version of the concept.

[thewakokid]

I don't think I count as a dudebro - I don't think any comic fan can rally count as a dudebro - but let me tell you something, I read that shit. I PAID for that shit - Apparently one of, like, 50 people who did. I don't care what they do to reassure me, I do not want that shit creeping anywhere near anything I love.

[(Anonymous)]

This used to be me until I found an exception to my femslash block: fucked up femslash! I realized that I can't warm up to the fluffy, sweet f/f my fandoms tend to produce, but give me enemies who hate and lust over each other, or complicated relationships that are all shades of grey, or, um, incest that isn't idealized? I'm here, I'm here.

[(Anonymous)]

I want to write femslash porn but I'm not attracted to women so I don't have any first-hand experience. I really wish there was a Minotaur Sex Tips for F/F because reading the one he wrote for M/M is what made me confident in writing M/M porn. He was great about telling what real life was like but also what certain fantasy conceits were common in M/M writing and it was okay to use them. I would love if someone did the same for F/F.

[(Anonymous)]

Maybe if it were in the comics but the movie was pretty clear on why it had to go.

"Are you the god of hammers?"

[(Anonymous)]

No, Overboard sucked in the 80s, toos Not because of some high-falutin' gender politics blah blah blah. It was just plain obnoxious. Even as a kid I thought it was obnoxious. I have no idea why anyone would want to remake this film.

[thewakokid]

Shit, I am with you. She's getting ANOTHER nerf apparently. Still waiting for MEI's nerf. Apparently DPS people really don't like Mercy. Lucio is another one who keeps getting shit on too. Fed up with it.

[thewakokid]

I liked it. I liked the characters, and thought it was sweet. I mean, I was 5, but still.

[(Anonymous)]

Tolkien's dragons are the best. I think it's because he took the original myths and made the dragons bigger and smarter but the original myths definitely had a great vibe to begin with.

[(Anonymous)]

I wouldn't feel sorry. It's a dynamic that works for you. Enjoy it.

[thewakokid]

That was good bit. Anthony Hopkins always does excellent delivery.

[(Anonymous)]

SAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAME but I can't find much fucked up shit.

[(Anonymous)]

I love this movie too. But I'm confused about not rooting for the protagonist. I think it's easy to root for Riddick. There are definitely worse assholes than him.

[(Anonymous)]

I was 10ish I guess?

And didn't have that reaction at all lol.

[(Anonymous)]

I like both. I admit that I do like having dragons that can be sidekicks or mentors to the protagonists but having to defeat a dragon (especially the ones that can get into your head) is definitely up there with the best boss battles. They're really great villains when written write because they're smart and tough. The protagonist usually has to really earn a victory.
