  • Hi! I'm Ellachanted and I'm a fanfic-oholic.
Thread #6 - We are crazy talkers here! Join in the fun!

ADULT DISCUSSION HERE, SO TRY TO KEEP IT CLEAN! UM NO, WAIT! IF YOU ARE EASILY OFFENDED, LOOK AWAY NOW! 

This is the new thread as the other was sooo long and had lots of pages. Continuation of our wonderful discussions on Twilight Fanfiction, Books, and Life in general.  But mostly Twilight fanfics... and life stuff that will get me a NOT ALLOWED statement. 

Okay, here is a place to discuss what you are reading, ask for recommendations and complain about the writing.

Everyone is entitled to an opinion, so please play nice   

Because we know drypen's watching    :googlyeyes:

M on M romances
« Reply #4421 on: November 17, 2014, 04:19 AM »
For a person with no triggers or restriction on what I read, I feel really odd that I can't read MM romances. No matter who recommends them or how many stars they have, the minute I realise it a gay romance I click on the x; and that makes me feel like a bigoted, small minded, traditional ar@ehole, which I'm not at all , far far from it. So why can't I level the same open-mindedness to M M romance novel as I do to everything else?

*Confused in Gayrom  ;D

I think that there is a difference between being ok with MM romance in real life and reading about it. I am not against MM but in the same sense I don't want to read about it. I don't think that makes you a bigoted, small minded, traditional ar@ehole.

MM romance does nothing for me either.  But then, I'm also not into zombies, techno novels, horror, most true crime, and any number of other things.  It doesn't make me feel bigoted.  Thank God, it narrows down the number of things that can go on my TBR!

See I don't know why I feel like that...but I do, I keep analysing myself to see if I have latent homophobic tendencies hidden deep in my psyche. Probably just being hard myself as I take such pride in my ultra liberal standpoint in life.

M M does nothing for me either... *shrugs* I definitely don't understand the zombie phenomenon, and horror is too scary!

Loopy, Rob at the piano and any other that I can see his beautiful face. I'm fricking mad so I need something beautiful to look at.
Okay hun, I will do that for you later when the kids have gone to bed as I'll have a bit more time to do this. :-*

I think Rob's new "do" is growing on me (that or I'm too distracted by him having his shirt open and sleeves rolled up  :D) as I don't think it looks too bad in these pics  ^-^ :P:

I think this is understandable and doesn't make you bigoted or small minded hun. :)

I love a good M/M but they are so few and far between these days as so many authors have now realised that it's an expanding market so they try their hand at it, but they don't write very good stories to go with the sex which is such a shame (shock, horror did I just say that!?!  :P :P)

If I want crappy stories and great sex scenes (M/M or otherwise) I just go through my one-shots and I'm almost certain to find something there.  :D

Demaris - don't try to analize  why you don't read mm - I used to read Kirk/Spock slash (Star Trek) - some was good, some wasn't.  I still have one that a friend, under an assumed name, wrote that always made me cry.  Whenever I felt the need for a good purging, I'd read it.  Unfortunately its currently buried in a box.   Twilight slash/mm doesn't really interest me (nor do zombies).   I have no answer why I can see Kirk/Spock in an mm relationship and not Edward and Jasper or any other male combo - I just don't.  One of these days, I may find a fic I like but until then - I don't care.  If it floats someone else's boat then so be it.  More power to them.   I have enough trouble finding time to read the fics that I do.

I'm not big on M/M either.  I have nothing against gay romance.  i think for me it is the Nal, as Astro would put it.  I haven't tried it, have no desire to. It sounds painful.  So 2 guys giving each other bj's? Yeah, not a problem. But reading about actual sex scenes between 2 guys? Well, I usually skip the Nal in F/M stories unless I have to beta them.  So why would I want to read a M/M story?

However, I did read a very nice Harry/Draco story.  Fade to black.  It was good. Won't make a habit, my TBR list is soooo long already.  And I have fear of reading new stories.  I just started an older one of drotuno's that is Vampward.  Since i know it will be E/B HEA, I'm going for it. 

Ruth? I have to say, being older, the thought of Spock/Kirk never made sense to me (Leonard Nimoy and William Shatner? Yuk! They barely liked each other)  But then there was Chris Pine.... and Zachary Quinto....and suddenly? I could see it.  :D :D :D :D :D :D

Ella - it depended on the fanzine and who was doing it.  It had to have a story/plot to be any good.   Della Van Hise did a series of zines that were all K/S and it was basically non-stop sex which was ridiculous/boring/ewww.   You learned to pick and choose.  Some were really funny, some were just sex, and then there were the really good ones with plot like the one that made me cry.   The friend went by the name Beverly Sutherland and the zine title was Broken Images.   There was very little sex - mostly a male bonding type thing.  One of them died - I think it was Spock but don't quote me.  The mm I could never get my mind around was the Starsky/Hutch mm zines.   To each their own.  I'm actually more geared to Kirk being heterosexual.   Leonard and Bill didn't like each other?  Since when?  They are friends.  Leonard (who is a recovering alcoholic) was the one who counseled Bill regarding his now deceased third wife who was an alcoholic.  Made him realize she wasn't ever going to quit no matter how many times she went into rehab.  She drowned in the pool one night when he was visiting one of his kids (the day before she was going to rehab yet again and he had already told her he was filing for divorce).

Well as the resident M/M reader here....I don't know why I love it so much. I know that when I first heard about m/m, I thought "meeeh, I don't think so!" but I read more and more smut, and eventually I hit a couple that had m/m scenes in it. I think my first was Lorelei James with her Rough Riders book. One scene was m/m and it was surprisingly hot. I didn't expect to like it, but I thought and thought, read a couple more menage books where the men got together, before I finally got brave enough to read a full out M/M, and that was it, I was hooked!

Now, I hardly ever read anything BUT M/M.I have beloved series just waiting on me to catch up, but I'm hooked on the M/M. When I can't find a good book, there's plenty of slashfic, I still read a lot of Draco/Harry, but I'm also reading TONS of Teen Wolf, all with Stiles/(derek or Isaac or Jackson or Peter).

I'm not sure how I came to read this story last year, but I really did like it. It's written by LyricalKris, and that's probably how it fell into my hands b/c I love all that she does  8)
