I read and write where I see chemistry. Whether this is between a male and a female, two males, or two females, I write where I see an interesting relationship, and usually I stay away from Canon ships. After all, if I wanted Canon, I would watch the show/read the book. I look for the characters with chemistry, the ones with circumstances that would dictate an interesting relationship. Have a problem with that? Press the back button and BEGONE!

Thoughts on Gay Marriage!

1) Gay marriage is not natural, and as Americans, we always reject unnatural things like eyeglasses, polyester, and lyposuction.

2) Gay marriage will encourage people to be gay, in the same way that hanging around tall people will make you tall.

3) Legalizing gay marriage will open the door to all kinds of crazy behavior. People may even wish to marry their pets because a dog has legal standing and can sign a marriage contract.

4) Straight marriage has been around a long time and hasn't changed at all; women are still property, blacks still can't marry whites, and divorce is still illegal.

5) Straight marriage will be less meaningful if gay marriage were allowed; the sanctity of Brittany Spears' 55-hour just-for-fun marriage would be destroyed.

6) Straight marriages are valid because they produce children. Gay couples, infertile couples, and old people shouldn't be allowed to marry because our orphanages aren't full yet, and the world needs more children.

7) Obviously gay parents will raise gay children, since straight parents only raise straight children.

8) Gay marriage is not supported by religion. In a theocracy like ours, the values of one religion are imposed on the entire country. That's why we have only one religion in America.

9) Children can never succeed without a male and a female role model at home. That's why we as a society expressly forbid single parents to raise children.

10) Gay marriage will change the foundation of society; we could never adapt to new social norms. Just like we haven't adapted to cars, the service-sector economy, or longer life spans...

Have PRIDE! Support Gay Marriage!

ºShadow of the Templar by M. Chandlerº (Original online book series, totally awesome!)

"So what's the verdict?"

"Eh," Nate said, shrugging out of the heavy lead apron and dropping it onto the pile at his feet. His shirt was wringing wet with sweat and Nate wrinkled up his nose and plucked at it. "I won't know for sure until I get it back to base and break it open, but it looks pretty by-the-numbers, boss. If I had to guess I'd say it's just another nutjob with a grudge and Internet access."

"Oh, you mean like half the country?" Simon asked dryly, glancing at the swaddled form of the bomb. "Gosh, kids. Remember when the public library was your only source of dangerous information?"

"Oh, yes," Sandra said. "Back in the Dark Ages. Tell us about the fabled '80s' again, will you, Templar? Is it true that our ancestors didn't have ATM machines?"

Simon shook his head sadly. "Kids these days," he said.

"And their twenty-four-hour access to a vast cultural wasteland full of porn, illegal downloads, and bomb schematics," Sandra added.

"... there's porn on the Internet?" Simon asked. "You don't say!"

"Hey, now," Mike said. "That's not nice, Sandy. I mean, you shouldn't oughta talk about Rich's girlfriend like that."

"Why not?" Nate asked, scruffing his damp hair back with both hands and fighting back a snicker. "I mean, she's pretty loose. I mean, twenty bucks buys you access to all her ports for a month--"

"Argh!" Mike's eyes popped and he ducked behind Sandra, peering nervously out at Nate over her shoulder. "Aw, Nate, man, you know I'm too damn manly for geek humor!"

"--but sometimes she's just phoning it in, you know," Nate finished with glee, riding right over Mike's words.

» Anti-overfeminization! «

If you want to write about a man with a character with cherry red pouty lips, a curvaceous figure, and an entrancingly beautiful face that turns all males to goo... WHY ARENT YOU WRITING HET?! What is the point of writing slash or yaoi if you just make one character into a girl? You're making them into girls with penises! If that is what you're looking for, you won't find it here.
