I gotta say, I love a good sex scene as much as your next wanka might, but when a book is 900 pages long I'd prefer for the ratio of plot to sex to be somewhat higher than it is in the Outlander books.

Also: About that “privacy of your own imagination” thing….[cough] While not all fan-fic is pornographic by any means, enough of it _is_ that it constitutes an aesthetic argument against the whole notion.

WHAT. I mean, just... WHAT.

ALSO ALSO: But…imagine opening your daily mail and finding a letter detailing an explicit sexual encounter between, say, your twenty-one-year-old daughter and your forty-eight-year-old male neighbor---written by the neighbor. At the bottom it says, “Fiction! Just my imagination. All cool, right?” This would perhaps prevent your calling the police, but I repeat…ick.

I wouldn’t like people writing sex fantasies for public consumption about me or members of my family—why would I be all right with them doing it to the intimate creations of my imagination and personality?

FANFIC: JUST LIKE BEING A CREEPY STALKER!
