ATTENTION, F-LIST! IMPORTANT!
As some of you may know, I have a paper to write for my Queer American Studies class. It's going to be about slash fanfiction (and comparing it to lesbian and gay pulp, yadda, yadda).

Age: 21
Gender: Female
Sexuality: I don't really like to define this. Heteroflexible?
Nationality: Mexican-American
Writer/Reader/Both?: Both
What do you believe dominates fanfiction and why?: I think slash, honestly. Unless you count the shitton of Mary Sue fanfiction out there.
On a whole, do you think slash fanfiction is mainly written by females? Why do you think that is, if you do think this?: Yes. I think it's because it's "taboo", which just gives the idea of malexmale relationships more allure. In addition, you never have to worry about a female characterization annoying you.
What do you believe male fanfiction authors write the most of?: Probably het, but I can't say I've run across too many male fanfiction writers.
What is your view on the representations of gay/lesbian/bi/trans/ect. in fanfiction? I would like it if people stopped adhering to strict "seme/uke" roles in fanfiction, because I don't think they're a good representation of how most homosexual relationships actually work.
If you write fanfiction, would you allow me to use your fanfiction (and cited, of course) in my paper?: Sure, if you can find it. I don't even remember my fanfic journal. Lol.
