As someone pointed out below, and I pointed out initially, why is RPF sanctioned when it's tabloid trash or ~intellectual~ books/films? Why is The Persian Boy okay which is basically slashfic, but what we write, now?

Now, understandably, Alexander the Great is not going to come across the book and be offended, but the majority of famous people (unless some crazy emails them their WTFCRAZY rape/bestiality/murder/sex fic) are not going to come across what we write either, though I have heard of some who seek it out out of curiousity.

If they're going and looking for it, it doesn't seem like they care that much about it, or they would just put up a big DNW sign and pretend it doesn't exist.

Like I said, I completely understand that a great deal of people think RPF is creepy. There are a lot of fandom fics I think are creepy, like rapefic, etc, so I'm not going to judge people for not liking something I write.

It's still RPF. Tabloid RPF is bad too. If you dislike them you should consider that you stand amongst them. Just with less distribution.

To me, the BIG difference between tabloids and fanfic, is that I have yet to meet someone who writes RPF that think what they write is true (or where their readers think it's true), whereas tabloids are constantly being referenced by people who are looking for reasons to dislike a celebrity. "Oh my god, did you see in *this magazine*, so and so is cheating on their wife!!"

Tabloids are RPF, sure, but they're taken as truth by a lot of idiots, whereas fanfic is seen by most as nothing more than entertainment. To me, that's where the distinction lies.
