Comments

[ginzai.livejournal.com]

I think the conflation came due to responses to the comments, for the most part. And there is a school of thought that considers gen to include the exploration of any canon or almost canon pairing, with the impression I got being that such exploration was fine provided that the pairing in question was het. Dean/Anna from Supernatural would therefore be fine, since it's a het pairing and they slept together. Dean/Castiel, a slash pairing, would not be, not even if they were playing on the subtext of the long, lingering stares, complaints about violation of personal space, BFF status, and jealousy/curiosity from Castiel regarding Dean/Anna.

Which as an explanation makes no sense to me. Gen to my mind is without ANY explicit exploration of pairings. At most a background mention where it's not a main focal point of the POV character.

And yeah, I really think that slash tends to come in most when there aren't well developed women on the show. I watched BSSM for years and slash there was highly marginalized but you had plenty of het and femslash. Same thing for Buffy - F/F and F/M were both pretty popular, but it wasn't really until Spike crossed series and landed on Angel that I saw an explosion in the slashdom. Go figure - Angel season five had few well developed female characters. Just Fred and Harmony, really, if I'm remembering right. And even TPTB were calling Angel/Spike the season's true love story.
