When there really well written i like to get my sausage and go at while reading how Draco is 6"2' with a 10' cock fucking scrawny beaten malnourished raped Harry who more then likely has a 12' dick thats as fat as a fist!... ok i seriously hate Slash and id gladly slice 'em and dice 'em with my sizziling wok of hovoc because it is absolutly discusting! seriously when has JKR mentioned Harry, or Malfoy for that matter showing Gay tendancies? NEVER! :wall:

    Ah, so true as always Midknight thank you for leading me to see the erroneous nature of my previously held beliefs.

    Couldn't agree with you more Midknight. Perhaps Lord Osiris should change his name to Lord of the Orifice :wink:

    :Gouges out his eyes:

    Disgusting mental image, thanks a lot Midnight. I personally think the grease is probably Lucius Malfoys ballsweat though (what did you think Lupin meant when he called Snape Malfoy's lapdog?), so I guess I can't talk.

    May your dreams be filled with images of Snape riding Malfoy like a rodeo rides a bull for planting those disgusting images in my head.

    *Raises right hand and puts left one on the Bible*
    I swear to god all that I post below is truthful and not misleading in anyway


    I personably know 4 girls who read fanfiction and at first they were all haters of slash with me they thought the idea of changing Harrys character so much from canon was repulsive. After reading fanfiction for less then 2 weeks each and every one of them fell victim to the Black Slash Plague of Death. When they confessed to me that they had been reading slash one after another it broke my heart into irreparable pieces. The girls I had hand picked and pruned to be the perfect fanfiction addicts each fell to the clutches of the slash side. Im not sure were I went wrong was it over protectiveness, I absolutely forbid each of them to even look at a slash story. So was it the excitement of doing the forbidden that go them hooked and dragged under the churning poisonous sea of Slash? Was it my fault? Did I push my protegees onto the road of sins where they were swept up into the mindless crowd of slash readers? Was there nothing to be done to save them from themselves and their own evil temptations? I failed in the highest degree *sobs* I’m sorry guys, please let me repent for my sins! Tell me how I can save my children (my sheep) from the clutches of the evil butt fuckers!!!!

    You want to know the REAL ‘kick in the balls’ of this experience was for me though? When I asked them if they liked femslash they said no….(here it comes)….they said no because it DEGRADED women to show them like that…I am not shitting you guys, these are some of the smartest women I know and they just said that femslash is bad because when boys write it they are degrading the women in the stories…

    I was seriously speechless, how do you respond to such an extreme double standard like that?

    I believe Mike Epps' character in How High had the best solution to that problem: sprinkle a lot of talcum powder on your hand and slap the twats, Three Stooges style

    Smack dat bitch up!

    :) Just kidding. Just be logical about it and ask them how a thirteen year old describing Harry ass-screwing Snape isn't degrading to men. At least femslash doesn't have Draco pulling a shit-stained baby from his ass.

    I think if a couple of us were reasonable, and explained to them our logic in a conference, like on yahoo or on here, that we could probably get them to jump ship.

    I highly doubt it. You may be able to sway a few sheep who are followers, but I know I would never stop shipping Harry/Fem!Blaise because someone tried to get me to follow them by saying Fem!Blaise was bad because Blaise is male in canon.

    *grimace* True.

    I just realized something, do we really have issues with slash fans? I mean, personally, my issues lie with slash writers.

    The answer to that is demand-supply not supply-demand.The fans ask and seek out slash so the authors write it.

    I have no problem with slash...as long as I don't see it or have to read it. See no slash, hear no slash, write no slash. I would rather that all the slash stories were either no pairing or het pairings, but as that won't happen, I'd settle just for not seeing any slash. Fortunately, PC will solve this, separating slash from the normal.

    My issues wiith slash fics come from multiple H/D, H/SS fics that didn't have warnings on them, come on its just courteous. Add to that the some 9,000 pages [ may be exag. ] of slash that cruds up ff.net and makes it bleedin' impossible to find a good read....



    *nod* It's why I love sites with good category/search engines, or sites with seperate sections.
