Slash doesn't turn me on, ergo I don't read it. Really, if something doesn't hit my taste, it's just awkward to read. Don't feel bad.

[vickyblueeyez.livejournal.com]

Fandom double standards. I doesn't only happen in Sherlock. If you say you hate some het pairing, it's all pats on the back. Say you don't like slash or a pairing and everyone is up in arms.

[(Anonymous)]

As a big fan of slash, I don't think you should feel guilty at all. So what if you don't like slash? It doesn't make you a homophobic in the least. I'm not a big of het fic but that doesn't make me against heterosexuals. That's actually a silly concept, really. Some close-minded people may say awful things and twist your words around because you don't like slash but ignore them because that's just idiotic. Different strokes for different folks. :)

[flowrs4ophelia.livejournal.com]

Of course it doesn't. If it really needs saying for the millionth time, people who think liking slash is indicative of being so progressive and accepting need to get the fuck over themselves. As long as you're not against slash, who cares.

[(Anonymous)]

Bawwww you're so oppressed because you don't like slash. Bawww.


Seriously, get over yourself.

[(Anonymous)]

Oh great it's the oppressed non-slash shipper again.

Fandom is hard no one understands me and they're after me etc.

[kelincihutan.livejournal.com]

Nah. I'm not really a slash fan, either. Although, TBH, I'm barely a het fan when it comes down to it. Hardcore gen, all the way, baby! ;)

[barnabys-bane.livejournal.com]

Well, as long as you don't gripe about 'slash taking over fandom' or something then I highly doubt anyone will care. Just keep reading, writing and drawing het stuff and if anyone asks, say either that slash isn't your thing or simply that pairing X/Y does nothing for you. Big deal. I'll ship most anything if the character dynamics are right, and there's really no reason for people to be a dick to you if you prefer, say, Hermione/Draco over Harry/Draco unless you're rude about your preference. It's when people go off at slash fans for being the majority in so many different fandoms or when talking about a certain pairing in a group that is devoted to a different one that people get defensive and nasty.

[(Anonymous)]

I tend to hate pairings more than "Slash" or "Het". The distinction makes no sense to me personally. Here's one thing I've been wondering though. If someone doesn't read slash or het, would said person be interested if one of the characters was gender-bent making it their preferred genre?

[100101011.livejournal.com]

it must be weird to be part of fandom and not like slash.

[(Anonymous)]

Why so secrets like these give me a feeling of schadenfreude

[(Anonymous)]

You don't like slash. We get it. Nobody is forcing you to like slash. But we do ask you to tolerate it and not call us morons.

[(Anonymous)]

I always give a bit of a side eye to people that make a distinction between slash and het pairings, like there's something fundamentally different about them.

It's not the gender of the characters involved that should be what people make up their minds about when shipping.

[(Anonymous)]

That IS RIGHT. You better not tell anyone about your perverted non-slashing ways or imma drop your face like it's hot, motherfucker.

Now go and repent for what you've done.

[(Anonymous)]

oh my fucking god no one cares about strangers on the internet
Just do whatever the hell you want to do

[writerserenyty.livejournal.com]

I've felt this way too because I tend to have het pairings and only a few of my favorite ships are slash/femslash. I mean, I don't feel threatened or like people think I'm a bad person, but just because I tend to ship het doesn't mean I don't completely support LGBT rights (I do).

But yeah, nothing wrong with not liking something that doesn't turn you on.,

[lovelycudy.livejournal.com]

I doubt you'd be run out of fandom for not liking slash, OP.

[(Anonymous)]

I don't know why you would assume that. If you don't bash ships or genres (like het, slash, femslash), no one will care what you ship, like and don't like. If you bash or sling shit, you won't be welcome (not even by fans with the same interests), but if you're not doing any of that, you have nothing to worry about.

[(Anonymous)]

Contrary to popular belief, slash fans are not going to chase you armed with machete and knives so calm down.

[(Anonymous)]

Secrets saying "I don't like het" or "I don't like slash" make me a little bit sad. I mean, pairings are more than just sex content so it's a shame that some people turn off when they see a M/F, M/M, or F/F pairing just because of the genders of the characters.

Naturally, I understand not being turned on by the mechanics of het or slash or femslash sex and no one has to be, but if it's just about two characters interacting in a source material, I think it's a shame if you (general) aren't interested just because it's a M/F or M/M or F/F pair. Of course, people like what they like, so whatever.

"Mom! Those slashers are doing it again! They're been giving me grief because I said I didn't like reading Harry Potter sticking his prepubescent wiener into Darth Vader's dark hole! I'm scared that they're going to chase me out of my fandom world with big choco dildos that taste nutty and feels all velvety in my mouth. Oh what shall I do mother?!" Sora cried as he raced through a suggestive looking cavern.

"NO1CURR" Mom said.

[(Anonymous)]

I don't give a crap about any shipping, gay, femmslash, bi, het, Captain Jack, whatever. I hate that for some reason fanfic has become synonymous with badly thought out, sub-twilight level romance. What happened to fanfics which told a story that didn't involve people shacking up?

[utahnastha.livejournal.com]

Don't feel bad, I tend to dislike slash myself. Personally, I'd only ship it if it were canon. Otherwise...no. Just, no. (I'm not homophobic, I'm just incredibly picky with my pairings.) Slash writers can write what they want, I'll just look elsewhere.

[htebazytook.livejournal.com]

Some slashers are dickheads, bb - allow me to apologize on their behalf

You're allowed to not like slash lol
