  • [livejournal.com profile] mofic: What I Learned From the "What is Sex?" Poll - The question that sticks with me is: why does it matter to us?

  • [livejournal.com profile] sara_merry99: Meta-Slashy Thoughts On Het - If het is distateful to you (as het, not as explicit erotica, please), why? What makes it icky? If het is merely completely uninteresting to you, I'm curious about that too. Were you once interested? Why is slash so much more interesting? -

  • [livejournal.com profile] alias_sqbr: Fandom as a female space - Unlike deliberately female spaces, fandom isn't defined as being female, it's just the collection of everyone who likes fanfic etc. As it happens it has ended up mostly female for historical etc reasons -
