Well, hello stupidity. It's been a while!
So, khfanficrants. That pretty much says everything that needs to be said, doesn't it?
There was a poster; as an aside to a rant about things she dislikes in fanfic, she mentioned, like it was part of her personal bio, that she dislikes yaoi. (God, I feel silly using that word; I haven't called it yaoi in a year or so now. It's slash~.) Fine, okay, whatever. ( Read more... )

I. I just. omg.
It slayed me. Every time I look at it, I fall out of my chair LAUGHING. Oh, honey, do you ever look at your own contingent? The ones that turned me off a bunch of popular het pairings because you're that batshit crazy?
M'gawd. XD

And RIGHT AFTER that, man.
Even though, well, they're both really stupid pairings, she could've just drawn something with Axel/Larxene and Roxas/Namine. And it would've been SO much more positive. D: There's definitely something to be said for looking at the bright side, man.

I can see Axel/Larxene, but not as a pairing so much as just random sex. Kinda the same way I view Marluxia/Axel, but without the evil power games and more open snarking.
The thing with the anti-yaoi people is how pointless it all is, and my god, I get enough homophobia in real life and everywhere else on the internet. Shut up and leave my fandom alone, and don't use some of my pairings to further your whining.

I used to be fine with Axel/Larxene actually, but it keeps being associated with these horrible, horrible people. I have this nervous tic now. (My Larxene still flirts with Axel, and sometimes he sort of flirts back, but it's all very snarky, yes.)
But yes, I know. Re: rant! XD

For a long time I used to define myself as "anti-yaoi", back when I was twelve or thirteen, until I figured out that "yaoi" didn't mean "every pairing I dislike, too". I could like yaoi and dislike, say, Duo/Heero. AND THUS THE SUN SHONE BRIGHTLY DOWN UPON ME AGAIN.

The Gundam Wing fandom is what grownup fandoms tell baby fandoms about to make them eat their vegetables. "If you don't eat all the food on your plate, you'll turn into GW someday!" Filled with people who have never seen/watched/read the subject matter but TEE HEE know all about the characters from other fanfic they've read! :D

Although I admit I do have some idea of what you're talking about. It's one thing to have one's first exposure through fandom. It's another to have one's only exposure through fandom and then try to pass yourself off as an expert.
