schmericaIt just occurred to me that the three biggest boyslash fandoms I've noticed popping up over the last two years or so are all ones where, even when I watch and enjoy the show, I don't see the slash at all. Stargate: Atlantis, House, Supernatural: I get no OTP buzzes AT ALL.
It's not my slash goggles, because a) I still see it in old stuff, even when I'm seeing it for the first time (hi, TS!); b) I see lots of boyslashiness in other new stuff (helllllllooo, Vorenus/Pullo!) and c) certainly the girlslashiness of everything in the world has been pretty off the charts lately.
Conclusion: I am totally out of step with fandom, and that's okay, because I'm perfectly happy with my F/K boys of old and new Grey's every week being femslashy, and other people are perfectly happy with their pairings that don't float my boat.
