My first poll-Kink or Squick?

Oct 10, 2006 10:09

I'm doing this because I'm nosy because I recently read a piece of fan-fiction that should have squicked me out to the point of nausea and eye-bleaching, but instead had me begging the author for more, more, more. Yes, one of the squicks involved is in the poll ( Read more... )

poll, journal

Interesting poll, and results. One man's meat is another man's murder, I guess. Out of interest, what was the squick of which you wanted more? (ps - I didn't tick a squick because for some reason you left fluff and mpreg off the list).

Thanks for participating. I may do a sequel poll with some of the stuff I had to leave out this time around.

Oh, very interesting poll. I'll be curious to keep tabs on the results. I ticked violence (outside of BDSM) as a squick, but it takes extreme violence to squick me. Minor violence (say, fistfighting) won't do it. But torture is a huge squick for me. But really, I have many more kinks than I have squicks. Not much squicks me, even if it's not a particular interest of mine.

I'm also curious to know what the fic squick was that inspired the poll!

You know, the other day I was looking at a fic challenge, trying to decide if I wanted to sign up, when I noticed that a lot of the prompts said "No PWP, BDSM, or non-con, please!" And I thought to myself, "geez, I think that's practically all I've ever written!" :p

Some of mine were contradictory. Apparently I think Mrs. Robinson is okay, but a Lolita scenario isn't. I never claimed to be logical.

That's one reason I broke the age discrepancy question down into the sub-divisions. Thanks so much for participating.
Maybe I should do a follow up with some of the ones I couldn't get in because of space. Son of "Kink or Squick"?

I have a *slightly* better idea of what hate!sex is now....

At this point, I'd have to say that hate!sex is beyond a kink for me. More like an addiction.

you've reminded me of how few squicks I actually have.

When it comes right down to it, my major squick is mpreg, followed by parent/child incest and explicit rape. Non-explicit, meh.

I used to list as one of my major squicks heterosexual sibling incest (as opposed to homosexual sibling incest, which for some reason never bugged me [prolly all the twincest I read ...]) but when I saw Firefly I found myself with a strange draw towards non-explicit Simon/River incest, so I can't really say that anymore.

Also, I'm curious as well as to the squick of yours that inspired this poll.

I'll definitely include mpreg if there's a follow up. I came back to fanfic specifically because of my H/W love and since then I've gone down some mightly dark and strange fanfic roads.

I was talking to hubby about this last night and I was telling him how conflicted I was about the particular squick that inspired this. He was fairly nonchalant about the whole thing.
