Apparently, writing slash makes me homophobic, too
Well, I'm not sure where said bloggers experiences lie, but my first introduction to LOTR online fanfic was to a group of slashers who believed that their slash was real. In pursuit of disseminating this theory - I mean: True Version of Reality - quite a lot of "facts" about homosexuality in general were pulled out of the asses of those who were neither male nor, strictly speaking, gay. Some of the stuff used as "proof" that a particular slash pairing was real was so stereotypical to the point where people did call it slightly homophobic.
