Re: What I don't get about every slash wank...

But some people do argue that they prefer slash shipping -- not just slash smut -- because there are so few well-written female characters. I don't agree with them either, but they do make that argument.

Well, I think they do have a point. I also kind of agree with the point that there should be more women in fandom. But at this point I'm not going to worry about it and just ship what I want to ship.

There should be more women, and some of them are badly written, but I've noticed that even in the fandoms that have lots of well-written female characters, people will dismiss them as Mary Sues and go on to complain about lack of interesting women and "that's why I ship dudes". But there are PLENTY of wonderful women in fandom.

Also, this argument doesn't hold much water considering how many people shit guys who have shown up on screen for five minutes, who have had zero character development, or are just mentioned in passing, or are terribly written. So I honestly don't buy it at all when people say it's about lack of interesting female characters.

SHIP* oops. Not shit. I don't think anyone defecates male characters.

OP

I know, that's why I wrote that both sides are doing it. Or maybe I'm just weird and I'm the only person who reads smut in order to get off, while other people read it and write it purely for literary values.

Literary values seems like a really weird way to justify reading smut to me.

It feels like you're saying you look at drawn porn* for artistic merit. I mean there's sometimes something there, but it's usually a bad place to look.
