I've already stuck this into my del.icio.us list, but yanno what? I think it's so special it needs its own announcements post.

So, everyone, I insist that you go right now to read fandom: it is all coming together in my head! Even if you're only mildly interested in fandom or gender issues, go now; it's some of the best meta I've read for a long time.1

Endless wanks about OOC aside, it is not only cool but celebrated for women who make fandom to assume men are open to any sexual experience that piques the author's interest. This is way more important than the original canon story […]

And fandom porn isn't just sexual. Fandom is full of emotional pornography. A male character is open to any emotional experience that is convenient (and pleasurable) to the writer. When people talk about fandom aesthetics, or slash aesthetics, it's emotional porn rather than sexual porn that's the litmus test. Fandom takes the idea of arousal and pulls it past the line marked sex, and drags sex along with it.

Quoted From: fandom: it is all coming together in my head

I'm just lamenting the post's not on LiveJournal so I can't pimp it out to Info metafandom, because, yeah. Needs more exposure IMO.

  1. And I'm not just saying that because UIP gets a mention. No, seriously. ^
