Good god.
So yeah...digging the fandom witchhunts, eh? I really really hate people who think they can protect kids from the world, and don't mean "kids" but "everyone who is not us." I mean, I think speaking out against child abuse is amazing and so important, but I don't see why, instead of targetting porn sites or chatboards, they're going after fandom. People who write stories. Hey witchhunters, I'm a teenaged girl and I have read a story that contained nonconsensual underage incest (how's that for a triple threat?) and I LIKED it. To a certain extent, I feel people's motivations have to be considered. I mean, I know there's some sick stuff on LJ, and some it probably does deserve to be exorcised. But fandom? If I wasn't involved with it, maybe I'd be more unbiased, but from where I sit, fandom is pretty much nice people, who, very importantly, can see a difference between reality and fiction. I think Sam and Dean should have hot sex not because I think incest is the way to go in the real world but...um, have you seen Sam and Dean? Yum because it's interesting. It's just a story. And looking at my icon, I just got this terrible sinking feeling. Fandom is crazy. That's why I love it. If someday, these "concerned" people have their way, and there is no fandom...I don't know what I'd do. Fandom is like my family who I've never seen and actually like (kidding! I actually get along quite well with my family)
In other news: ScriptFrenzy starts tomorrow! My plan as of now is to write for an hour everyday. Hopefully it will work (and the summertime won't eat my soul.)
