(Anonymous) 2013-01-07 12:06 am (UTC)(link)... Isn't that in some ways making it worse, though? I mean, it's not saying that wanting to be fucked or wanting to engage in D/s are okay choices to want to make, it's saying that the only excuse this universe could come up with for them was to remove the element of choice. How is that supporting the desire to engage in D/s or enjoying being the bottom, when essentially it's saying that they're only excusable when biology overrides sense?
It just seems to me that that set-up would be re-enforcing the idea that these things are things that reflect on your character and you shouldn't enjoy them freely.

(Anonymous) 2013-01-07 12:19 am (UTC)(link)It's shallow, and everyone knows it's shallow, but it's enough to make them able to indulge in harmless porny fantasy. It's not supposed to be deep or meaningful or politically correct or empowering. It's a tool for making porn happen guilt-free, like sex pollen or Aliens Made Them Do It or pon farr.

(Anonymous) 2013-01-07 12:28 am (UTC)(link)That aside, though, obviously in some cases the whole 'no irl thoughts niggling at you' backfired with this one, since it seems to have provoked very mixed reactions when people actually did pause to think about it. It gives an air of attempting to excuse some things that don't necessarily need to be excused (D/s, bottoming), and other things that really shouldn't be excused (non-con), which I'd think is actually more harmful that just a straight-up fantasy involving non-con/dub-con that's acknowledged as such.
