Hey now, that's kind of harsh. Most people who do that are young girls and children will have their childish fantasies.

Don't apologize for them

[insanenoodlyguy]

They deserve the contempt all the same. Being young doesn't excuse this level of stupid.

I can accept (and hope) that one day they will grow up and be embarrassed they did this. But the point is THEY SHOULD DAMN WELL BE EMBARRASSED.

Re: Don't apologize for them

It's a pretty common fandom thing to do at that social development stage, therefore a form of normal. Embarrassing yes, but contemptible, no, no more than your first little midget boner was.

Re: Don't apologize for them

[insanenoodlyguy]

My first little midget boner was a thing of beauty. You'd have knelt in awe before it's aesthetic perfection. No shame there.

This.

I have a theory that it's a natural progression in wriitng. Teenagers and kids write stories about a super-special magical protagonist (who is a thinly-veiled version of their ideal selves).

And then eventually (hopefully), they grow out of that and start writing stories about fully-fleshed characters.

Some people don't grow out of that, and those people are bad writers.

[badass_tiger]

But a lot of people do, and that's the most important part. We all have to start somewhere after all, even if that somewhere is with Mary Sue self-inserts.

i feel weird because i never had a mary sue phase in writing, ever, so i can't understand the appeal of it at all. i mean, sure, i had mental fantasies, but i guess i always just had enough self-awareness to realize that most other people probably wouldn't be interested in reading about my imaginary adventures with the cast of insert show name here.

[blind_bard]

You still had them though. You just didn't write them down, but they weren't one time scenarios in your head but could often get more elaborate than that, didn't they? I'd say it's still the same thing, whether you wrote them down or didn't.

[(Anonymous)]

It's like a disease. I had all these Sues growing up, but I never did anything with them because I saw so many people talking about it. Now I'm 20 and still have horrible self-insert fantasies from time to time.

[(Anonymous)]

oh yeah, but i didn't have any interest in sharing them with anyone else. that's the part i can't understand, the appeal in broadcasting those things to the entire world. even when i was 13 or so i would get intense secondhand embarrassment reading someone else's suefic.

to me it always kind of felt like someone sitting there having a loud conversation with an imaginary friend in a public place. it's all well and good to do in your head but keep it to yourself, you know?

[wauwy]

lol... it's a fandom secret.

[badass_tiger]

Yeah we take fandom really seriously around here. There's people who love TV shows, kids who use TV shows to fuel their imagination, and then there's us.
