Let's all do the chan chan
Since our friend Harry Potter has been missing from Fandom Wank for a while, here we go:

idiotparade decides to rant about chan (underage sex) in [HP] fanfiction. From what I can tell of the long, convoluted ramble, she[?] only likes chan that she writes, and anyone else who writes it fails to include the consequences of said chan in their work. Not to mention she seems to have some difficulty in distinguishing "fantasy" from "reality".

A snippet:
Chan needs to deal with that lack of comprehension or understanding of what a child is doing. A lack of basic understanding about sex. Chan is about innocence and purity, in a way, but more it's about gullibility and developing sexuality. Or, it should be (Ed: You know, because creativity is bad. [/snide remark])[...]I can't think of a single chan fic off the top of my head that deals with the ramifications afterward, whether it's consensual or otherwise.

Some responses:
from spare_change: I don't think chan should be an "easy" subject, to read or to write, but I also don't think anybody should lecture me or you or anyone else about writing it.

musesfool: And fantasies are not *stories* and oughtn't be passed off as such. That's a function of bad writing.
Ed: I'm a tad confused. Aren't the majority of nonfiction stories "fantasies" in one way or another?

bugland (with my personal favorite):
OK, so you write chan. and your chan deals with the ramifications responsibly etc. but nobody else's does. er.'kay...


For me, the wankiness springs from the fact that the OP is telling the world what they can write.

Of course, some people agree with the OP, but what fun would those comments be? Not to mention that the OP's "co-writer" appears to be answering most of the replies...I guess the OP went on vacation after posting or something.

Is there a reason I'm reminded of fandom scruples?

New: our new friend, anti-fandomwank, has reported us to the OP! Please don your splooge suits immediately.
