she pointed out that it's still important to *talk* about these things; that if things like noncon or whatnot turn someone on, then by all means write about them - but don't just forget that things like this have implications and meanings beyond just "ooh, HAWT."
She sounds like a damn smart lady.
Actually, would you mind further discussion on rape/dubcon in fiction? Because it's something I've been wondering about. Like, I've read the 'women gets sex/sexual pleasure but doesn't have to ASK for it, thus avoiding the stimaga of being called a 'slut' which, to me, makes a lot of sense, but I've also heard people do, 'it's not that simple' and then not elaborate. So, what is your take on the prevalence of rape fantasies?
It's kinda reminds me of slash - I don't want to villify something that's written by women for women to take pleasure from, but I find it terribly odd that something that is by and for women has no actually representation of the female body in it. Especially when you get things like mpreg being so popular, so it reads like, 'I want to write a women only with a penis' which is.... something to talk about, imho.
