Re: on a slight tangent
The problem is presentation, as well. If you say, "I love m/m fiction, and I want to support women who also love it with publication!" you probably get a better response than when you say, "There's an unexploited market, and I want to get in on it."

I'm cynical enough to believe that anytime someone says the first thing, they actually usually mean the second. (Oops. Did I say cynical? I usually say "realistic.")

Anyway, the second says, "I'm an outsider" and the first says, "I'm an insider." This seems to be a very important concept in fandom.

So, there are problems of (1) male speaker (no matter how much power he actually has in the enterprise) and (2) outsider (exploiting people who love writing m/m fiction). Of course, there's a question of how much you're being exploited when someone's actually paying you for doing work, but, clearly, that's being ignored. (Because the consumers of free m/m slash are being exploited!)

Of course, it's not as if the free porn is going to vanish from the earth or anything. So, who cares?
