china_shop: An Indefinite Article (thoughts from the gym) - a) sometimes we seem to forget we're talking about personal canon and talk about it as if it's the truth, and 2) if you pin things down too much, doesn't that limit the stories you can tell? -- hector_rashbaum: In Which Hector Uses an Odd, Drawn-Out Analogy to Discuss Fannish Terminology Issues - You guys, real person fandom and media-based fandom are different. They have different - overlapping sometimes, yes, but still different - cultures. They have different relationships with canon, with fanon. They have different legal issues -
- addictedkitten: RPF, shipping, tinhats, and canon as text. - Do we really all need to disclaim our every pro-pairing statement with "oh but I know it's not real, I know he has a girlfriend, I know it's all fiction, they're not really dating and they're not going to date, I'm not saying it's true!!" -

I'd like to submit the following for your consideration:
Modern midrash
http://kassrachel.livejournal.com/544295.html
"Midrash is/are exegetical stories, written to explore textual loopholes or bring silent voices to life. Historically, midrash arises out of Torah. But it seems to me that what we do as fans is a variation on that same theme -- the same kind of practice, only with a different sort of beloved text at its heart."
