Femslash February : Day 26
Feb. 26th, 2022 09:21 am26) What do you love the most, and what do you love the least, about femslash fans?
What I love the most: I've seen a lot of femslash fans being multifandom, multiship. You ship femslash? You're kind of in the same fandom as them, even if you actually aren't, your ships are different, and you're no longer watching the same show. You will still leave Kudos on each other's art. For the same reason, a lot of openness at "there are my OCs" presentations.
What I love the least: the part of the fandom who not only wants only fluff, role models and healthy relationships (this is alright, except somehow frustrating when you come along a femslash exchange and discover it actually means fluff femslash exchange), but also complains where anything else exists in the femslash community (it's not exactly antis, since they imply it's specific about femslash). This is very frustrating. It doesn't happen often, but I have been called an agent of the patriarchy because I was writing kinky sex or twisted relationships.
