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...

I wouldn't say that gen/slash debate is necessarily stronger in this fandom, just that communities mixing gen and slash together means this debate is going to rise more often than other fandoms.

Yeah. It's not that we're worse people, here in MFU, but that in other fandoms they had the sense to bring more than one lifeboat. :)
