>>39 Thank you for the compliment, EggWhite. Although I don't take back what I said, I should have sensed on some conscious level that this fic is cathartic for you. I didn't intend to say that your fanfic should be "deeper" if you don't want it to be. I just have a habit with pornography that whenever I see adult fics described as "deep" or "cerebral," I read them to see if they really are literary and wind up disappointed if they're not, fanfic or otherwise. Don't laugh; I think like this because most people who read Alan Moore's "Lost Girls" consider it to be art even though it's very explicit pornography, so I keep searching for stories like it. I guess the other reason why I didn't find Medic and co's transphobia all that cerebral is because...they're rapists. The fact that they don't care about basic sexual boundaries means they wouldn't care about basic sex identity. I'd honestly be more surprised if there were that many straight male rapists who believed in trans awareness or equality. Basically, I didn't find it cerebral because I found it obvious. But if writing this fic is good for you, then all the power to it. >>46 and >>47 I really don't want to come across as rude, but the fact that you didn't realize that Pyro IS a boy after the author explicitly said so several times makes you look...very bigoted and transphobic. Not to mention illiterate. You have completely missed the entire point of the story.
