Dean, and moral dyspepsia
Someone made a gifset of Dean claiming he is going to throw up over things he doesn't like (including one tiny spoiler for 11x05).
For
me this has some extra meaning.
Being, you know, a fan, naturally I went and read some stuff about incest. One paper I kept finding was not about incest at all, supposedly. It was about the possibility of having a physical reaction like gagging, or feeling nauseated, as a result of moral issues.
The paper explored this through the clearly nauseating concept of consensual sibling incest. Because nothing says 'gross' like consent. Worse maybe - because they didn't even consider real people whose life this might be, who might not be so happy to be reduced to a philosophical concept -
or, at that, one so vile it inspires physical reactions.
In short, this inspired in me a desire for a physical reaction between my knee and the author's balls. Even though they maybe wre n the side of this that says this is a cultural taboo and not 'wrong'.
