Society customs in fanfic
I've lately noticed that society customs and norms sometimes seep into fanfic. This is especially noticeable in smut i.e. 'His hand reaches down and feels the light dust of trimmed (pubic) hair', or 'His hand moves slowly over her flat belly.'
Do you think this is the author's own preference or is she/he just following society's trends? Can we even have a own preference? Is not everything moulded to society's standards?
