Warning: Fic Spam ahead

[salmonme]

I don't know why, but writing challenges inspire me. Prompts; Monthly Themes; Nanowrimo...

So there's two Hetalia ones going on right now. One being aph_fluffathon, and the other being the Summer Camp over at usxuk. I posted the fluffathon fic a couple days ago, but since the summer camp are daily challenges, I was worried about spamming my fl-list. (Though I'm a

Good for you and your sister. I just recently told my mom about my yaoi/slash addiction. I always figured she'd kill me if she found out and ban me from the computer. Her reaction was a bit different than that. She was like, "You're 23. It's your life. You're an adult. If you were a teenager it'd be a different story but you're not." Needless to say I was shocked. I mean you get into a certain frame of mind when you hide a part of your life from someone for years cuz you thought they wouldn't accept it or you. So now she knows. I'm not gonna go around showing her any of it though since she doesn't really approve. I mean I was watching the episode of Glee where Kurt and Blaine finally get together and kiss. I thought it was magical. My mom was so uncomfortable she made me fast forward through the scene. I still think she hopes that the fact that I'm also attracted to women is some bizarre phase I'm going through. If it is it's been a pretty damn long phase.

I'm glad your Mom was so mature about your yaoi/slash fandom. Some parents would still raise a ruckus even though you were an adult.

Yah, my sister (and definitely my mom) are not comfortable watching/reading any slash/femmeslash either. But the fact she's willing to reference it with me is still heartwarming.

Ah, the phase thing. Been there too. S'okay, my sister was convinced once that I couldn't know I was gay until I'd tried being with a guy first. It caused me quite a few headdesks for awhile.

My mom brought up slash once with me. It was funny. She asked if two characters on a show we watch were a pairing and if so, were they popular? That's the only time she's mentioned it though. I think my mother would be highly disturbed if she saw or read any yaoi or slash. But the good news is now I won't have to find a sneaky way to go to Yaoi-Con one day cuz now she knows.

My mom thinks I only like women because of trauma in my past. Well there's no way to know for sure is there mom? And she doesn't seem to understand I keep trying to tell her I'm not bisexual. I'm pansexual and I have been for as long as I can remember. I mean really it's time to let the "phase" mentality go. A phase that's lasted for sure a decade long. I think not.

Someday I will make to Yaoi-con too. Eventually. When my savings aren't in a penny jar. LOL

The phase thing gets old fast. But I think people have this thought process that until someone settles down it's still a question. (Which is silly, but what can you say?) My sister likes to think I'm bisexual, because I do comment on if I think a guy is attractive or not. But I'm strictly homosexual. It's hard for me to explain, though I've tried before. It's like a picture. I mean, I think a picture of a fox is pretty too, but I'm not going to have sex with a fox. That's my best attempt to explain. For a writer, I suck at explanations. LOL
