Actually, I finally bothered to properly read some MPreg (because, if I want to do my PhD on slash, I'm going to have to read plenty of stuff that bores me/bothers me - I've read enough of the fun stuff to be going on with, I think. Yeah, I know my lack of a work ethic is deplorable - just be grateful you don't have to do battle with it every day), and discovered that, much like hairy chests, the idea is far worse than the reality. Haven't read much, but I think it throws up some very interesting points about gender in slash... so, for the record, I take back what I said about MPreg, because it was, probably like too much of what I say, spoken in ignorance. |
