airgiodslv: Real Sex 101. - It is incredibly insulting to say that gay men who don't have anal sex don't have "real" sex, or that lesbians are all virgins because they haven't been penetrated vaginally by a penis. It's putting the expectations of one culture on another subculture. It's saying that the way someone else defines themselves doesn't count. -
- zokiblue: A response to 'PC bullshit is getting out of hand' - I know we'll probably get into an argument about how some words have progressed down the insult treadmill so far that they're not worth censoring anymore, like stupid, idiot, moron, or crazy. I really wish people would use alternatives to words with that history, but I know it's unrealistic for me to expect that from everybody, but I work to excise them from my own vocabulary. -
- teleen_fiction: Words Have Meanings: First, Do No Harm - Seriously, who does it hurt to make the effort not to use words that others have found offensive? -
- lettered: Fandom Experience - What I'd like to know now is what your fandom experience is, and also how your fandom works. Would you consider it based on comms, memes, fests, a couple bnfs? Where does it happen? -
- fizzylizard: The Importance Of Being Toph - Toph wasn't helpless. Her limitations existed, and were addressed, and were realistic as far as a show with flying bison can be, but they didn't define her. -
- sailortaph: Anachronistic references in historical/AU settings - When writing in a setting that is very much Not Our Own, how do you deal with words and phrases that are specifically tied to to our world and its history? -
- laceblade: untitled - How do people write epic fanfic? -
