millefiori: A white girl's IBARW post. - Iâ™m baffled by fans who feel that discussion of racism (or sexism, or any other â“ism) in fandom is a buzzkill that harshes their squee. -
- nojojojo: IBARW: Race games - In the wake of the fannish kerfluffle over questionable race imagery in a recent trailer for the upcoming Resident Evil 5, it occurs to me I should noodle a bit about race in games. -
- partly_bouncy: [in Fanthropology] BoldThrough: User Loss for LiveJournal: A meta analysis with stats! - Have the actions of LiveJournal created a situation where people will and actually are leaving? Are those groups leaving in higher numbers?" The purpose of this piece of meta is to try to answer this question. -
- lemurgrrrl: Thoughts and also a Poll - When I'm writing, character voices are very very important. . . On the other other other hand ..I know there are people like [info]thefourthvine who read fanfic based on canon they have not seen! In which case I'm not really sure how important voices are. -

- dakinigrl: kink, pr0n, ethics, law, taboo, and bears oh my
In short... I believe that we cannot control *what* gets us turned on (or turned off). Those come under the realm of fantasy and feeling... and those are fascinating to me, and to be given wide berth inside my mind, my heart, my energetic space. I cut o
- kita0610: Mostly for posterity at this point - Let me begin here: I find art and story writing about children in sexual situations disgusting. Repugnant. Repulsive. Physically ill-making. Even with a thesaurus and wild gesturing, I don't think I can state this strongly enough. -
- lydiabell: This whole "child porn" thing suddenly makes a lot more sense. In a headdesky kind of way. - I was wondering yesterday why people can't seem to stop referring to explicit drawings as "child porn". [...] LJ is required by law to report child pornography to the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children. And markf says they are using the de -
