This Fanfic May Not Be Suitable For All Audiences
Hi.
I have a question. I've been noticing a trend lately in some fandoms to rate fanfic (not fanart, generally) very high if even the slightest whiff of sex is mentioned. Why is this? Being overly cautious because of the Net Police?
Stories I consider PG13 are being posted NC17 and I wonder, what kind of 17 year old is so afraid of the mere mention of a possible sexual act? Is it only because of the same sex pairings (my preferred reading). Then I thought I'd ask my wise and knowing flists. To that end, a poll!
Feel free to discuss. Thanks, y'all.
