175, 178
"Look, I strongly dislike rum. I think rum is icky. I would rather not drink anything than drink something with rum in it, because it will make me gag. I may express this by saying "rum is icky," rather than taking the time to say "I personally don't want any rum." I may even say "Why do all these drinks have rum in them? Who decided that rum had to be everywhere?"
The thing is, the rum's feelings will not be hurt. It is a beverage.
However, when you say "slash is icky" or "why must people write all this slash?" even if you mean "none for me, thanks," or "why can't I find any good friendship stories?" what some people will hear is "you are icky," "your relationship is icky," "your friends are icky." They will hear "I would think less of my fictional heroes if they were queer." They will hear "I would think less of you if you were queer.""

[ED: Quoted to illustrate-- this doesn't happen if someone says "het is icky", because het is a the NORM. Het is the default. Thus why people get called out on saying "slash is icky" and not the other way around.]
178. Yeah, but Tamora Pierce didn't make a post on how to write Characters of Color. She also wisely didn't comment on the blow-up at all. Does her writing have race issues? Sure. But no one's mentioning it because she wasn't part of the group of people saying "no, of COURSE we don't have race issues" while consistently insulting fen of color.
Re: 175, 178
So from my experience, it goes both ways ^^;
Re: 175, 178
But there were so many people agreeing and being all "oh yeah, your friend is a hypocrite" that I wanted to point out one of the major reasons that there's sometimes a double standard. :/
