*laughs herself silly*

I'm sorry, I've been reading stuff about the DS fandom, how some are more easily offended than others. Really. Get over yourselves. Try, say, joining a fandom where wank is an everyday occurrence and then just be glad you're part of an easier fandom. Hey, in DS it's allowed to say that "I don't slash Vecchio because I do not find him attractive". Well, I'm allowed, because I really don't care about the amount of toes a comment like that could squish. I've been in one fandom where I tried to do the main pairing thing, Sentinel, but I couldn't stomach a lot of things.

1. Same boring ideas and people as in the SG fandom that I'd just left and

2. I never have and never will, find Blair attractive. And in the long run? I have to find both guys attractive to some extend.

So, there. Not by far the worst fandom I've been in. I recall SG1, if you even so much as contemplated anything but Jack/Daniel, you were considered a traitor.

In DS? I just prefer Kowalski's character to Vecchio's, part because I find him more attractive and part because I love writing the character. He's sufficiently insane to appeal to me. I get the same kick from writing him that I get from writing Jayne in Firefly.

I don't choose pairing from what's the most popular, but what inspires me to read and write.

That said, I've seen others comment that it's almost as if the DS fandom is trying to be too nice now, that you can't say or write just anything in fear of others being offended...

Uh... and people sometimes wonder why I stay away from fandom and rarely comment.

Bunch of nutcases the lot of them/you/us.
