I don't know for sure, and I don't really care. IMO, it still sounds ridiculous and pretentious and vaguely appropriative (is that a word??) when it's used in reference to, say a Sherlock/John fic written by an American author who's never even traveled out of the country let alone spent any real time learning about Japanese culture, which is just one actual example of where I've seen it.

Yes. I'm.............................agreeing with you?

Appropriative is a word.

If you're the same anon as above, then we're just miscommunicating. It seemed like you weren't agreeing because you thought it is being/should be used in such contexts to get a specific meaning/trope across. (Which even then I'd hate it - I feel slash is a very encompassing term and if authors want to clarify more in the tags/warnings/whatever, go for it).

But glad someone agrees with me! And that I'm not making up words!
