Confessions of a One-Track Mind

It's only a matter of time before this turns up in a slashfic somewhere. Or at mmom.

And I'm looking forward to it.

I sat down earlier with the idea of continuing "Flying Towards Destiny", and ended up writing an essay that's been on my mind lately, namely, what motivates writers of slash. How do we explain it to those puzzled hardcore heterosexuals who don't understand our predilections? Maybe I'm projecting my own point of view onto the subject, and I shouldn't claim to speak for all proponents of the genre, but I think I've dealt with a lot of its more common roots. I'm posting this as a public entry, with some trepidation. Some people take light-hearted, tongue-in-cheek things far too seriously. I hope this isn't going to be one of them.
