One complaint that I have heard numerously recently is that everything seems to have some sort of sexual connotation. Case in point, this particular question: 'Why does there have to be het/slash 'porn' fanfic/artwork for say Twilight?? (Yah the Twi-Hard Moms are all up in arms about all of the Jasper/Edward slash fanfic that's out there. I can hear the wailing and gnashing of teeth from here *snicker*). My explanation to them is this:
Rule 34: If it exists, there is porn(see also smut) of it. No exceptions.
If you don't believe me, check out my own stories and some that I have favorited on my FF.net account. I have written CSI:NY het smut; yes it's based on characters from a fucking TV show! I have written Harry Potter het smut with Severus and Hermione *gasp* Yes, it's based on characters from a beloved Book Series, and am currently working on a Criminal Minds het story as well as a Twilight/CSI:NY Crossover slash. (What can I say, I have a fertile fucking imagination!)
I don't see it as porn so much as adult fanfiction/fantasy smut. I mean when I'm reading Twilight, I can't help but let my mind wander thinking 'hmmm I wonder just
how close Carlisle and Edward were when he stole him from the hospital and changed him and teaching him to
control his thirst'? Next thing you know, it's 3a.m. and I'm writing some totally hot man on man loving with an overabundance of the words 'cock', 'thrust', 'languid' and 'stroke. Then my buddy Yoji reads it and offers to create a quick manga for me and boom; instant internet sensation. Plus you can't tell me that Edward and the rest of the Vampires
sparkle in the fucking sunlight and NOT expect there to be a plethora of stories about him shagging somebody in that fucking meadow with his sparkly erect peen plowing...see this shit practically writes itself while begging for accompanying visual illustrations!
My FanFic BFF recently introduced me to the world of 'Collie' - to those of you NOT in the know that's Clark Kent (Superman) and Oliver Queen (Green Arrow). Let me tell you their slash ain't no joke...after all Superman
is the Man Of Steel, so ideally should he top or should he bottom??? I mean if he tops, he'll likely kill the person on the bottom right? But if he bottoms then will the experience be fulfilling for him? Plus, he could totally kill the person he was giving head to, right?
What I'm trying to say is that there is porn/smut for EVERYTHING. Nothing is sacred; I mean a couple of years ago I was traveling in Europe and happened across some Mikey Mouse cartoon porn. I needed brain bleach to get rid of the image of Donald Duck and Mickey Mouse going at it. My head was exploding at what was before me on the pages: gay, anatomically correct, inter-specied, beloved cartoon characters having hawt, dirty, smutty sex and
speaking in French. Do you blame me for giggling the entire visit to Disneyland Paris and being unable to take pics with Mickey or Donald???
That was then; now when I see that shit I think...meh. Oh Rule 34 what have you done to me?
Oh and if you love Hentai like I do, then you are totally proving Rule 34!!
BTW, have you ever seen that show on Comedy Central called 'Drawn Together'? That show is Rule 34 personified in all its subtle glory on basic cable, people. Face it, whether the prudes among us want to admit it or not, we all like to fantasize about sex and when it involves our favorite fictional characters bring it on. I mean my Viking Vampire Eric Northman stars in my nightly fantasies, is that so wrong?? The smut is here to stay people, so writing it, drawing it, illustrating it will always be a big part of what we do and ENJOY; at least for me.
TTYL,
