First rant.
Dear Transformers (any series) fandom,

As someone (I forgot who) so eloquently put it: "Het and slash are not matter and antimatter. You are not going to explode for liking both."

Please heed these words, for they are the truth. Also, there is no law that states that you can't have het and slash pairings in the same fic. Yes, I know many BNFs will tell you to ONLY write slash pairing OR ELSE, but they're just batshit crazy bluffing. "Or else" WHAT? They'll strangle you through the monitor? Please.

(And speaking of slash, why is there no humanslash? Are we so busy wanking over the sexual orientation of plastic robots that we forget that humans can be homo/bisexual? Or are we too busy bashing the humans, since character bashing seems to be some Transfic priority?)

Not a lot of love,
Fourth Impact

P.S.: This could apply to any other fandom with similar "het vs. slash" ship wars.

P.S.S.: Regaurding the folks who don't believe robots have gender in the first place - I'm saving you for a different rant. But since many of you have been acting like complete paranoid asshats misbehaving, the rant won't be very pretty.
