Sheesh

There's so much bad feeling between slash and gen (and particularly between perceived slash and gen) in this fandom that I wonder if it isn't a good thing when those two "camps" are wholly separate, the way they are in other fandoms. Then at least one side doesn't get hit by the other's vitriol all the time.

I have trouble fathoming people's need to be "right" when it comes to something that is so clearly a matter of personal taste.

Sigh...

Would that be even possible since so many folks read both and even write both?

Perhaps, rather than two camps, it's more of a continuum with a bell curve.

And I would venture this occurs because for many fans (though certainly not all) affection for MFU trumps everything else.
