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.
