Outside, It's America

I was also curious as to your reasons for this post, and the breakdown; how are you defining fandom? do you mean both slash and het discourse? it looks that way. how then do the male participants break down in terms of that? it's a long held belief that slash fandom of course, is predominantly female, and that men in fandom conversely tend to hang around het (statistically most men are straight, therefore straight men do the het stuff.) it'd be interesting to see who identifies as a slasher/hetter/general fanficcer vs. gender identity or sexuality, and also who has written what: for example, male fen (me) who tends to write a lot of slash fic (but has also written het and femslash and gen) and as a result, objects to terms such as slash and slasher.

or you could just not bother. *G*
