can't leave this bed....

So, anyway, I was reminded by the recent upsurgence of the Slash/Het debate again...

Actually, I was reminded because I was reading this article on fanfiction. It's an ok article, but the best bit is the following:

Writer Wilson observes that "without a male-female power dynamic in the relationship, you can get down to quote, unquote 'pure' emotion." Would that also explain all those Xena/Gabrielle fanfic flings?

Leaving aside, for the moment, the mention of femslash (YAY! We aren't marginalized!), can the guys out there please tell me: does the male/male bonding bring out the Pure Emotion in you?

Do you ever have that Not So Fresh Feeling?

Enquiring minds want to know.

oooh. spam. Movie meme

MOVIE MEME
1) Total number of films I own on DVD/video:
...a lot? Probably somewhere around 40ish, if you count off-air copies, 60ish. If you count more than movies... er, can we just say 'a lot'?
2) The last film I bought:
Dangerous Liaisons - Glenn and Malkovich, MWAH. And sexual politics and cold as ice edge-cutting (Valmont is more warm and human and full of passion), and a comeuppance that doesn't really work... And Keanu Reeves as Dunsany. Omfg, he almost says 'whoa'. And the costuming. *swoooons*
3) The last film I watched:
Pitch Black, with Actor/Director commentary. Vin Diesel? Is a GEEK. And weird.
4) Five films that I watch a lot or that mean a lot to me: edit: TV shows, too, because I don't re-watch a lot of movies that mean anything to me.
A. Farscape.
A1. Wait, that's not a movie, um... Star Wars. Because you can't keep a good snarkfest down! And Han shot first.
B. Pitch Black. This movie never gets old, and Riddick/Fry is my OTP. With lots of fuckeduppedness, and he was serial killer stalking her, omfg. And Fry? Is so me. "Fuck you all, you die now, I want to live, bitches!"
C. Blake's 7! For the snark never dies! And Avon's leather always amuses, and Calllyyyyyyyyy, my girl kicks ass. And Soolin (did I mention I apparently have a thing for blondes?)
D. Doctor Who. Hey, I can even stick the TV movie here, because it's McGann in nothing but a sheet as the Doc, and he's fab and sweet. And then there's them other seven men (with the occasional Blake's 7 cameo), and their random companions....
E. New Battlestar Galactica. Have I mentioned I am obsessed with Kara Thrace? She's blonde, you know. I fast forward and watch only her parts (and mock Baltar). please can I have a Kara, kthnx. Plus, well... I like the editing and the tension.
5) Which five people are you passing the baton onto? And why?
(1) nique. She's easy? Or not. *picks on roommate*
(2) karma_aster 'Cause, um, she's amusing.
(3) seraphic_slayer He is my bitch Er. Because I can.
(4) anr For this should spread...
(5) nakedtoes And across the Pond thingie, too.
