exsequar: (SN Dean WTF?)

My 2 cents on this whole wankymcwank we've got goin on?

I love Sam and Dean. Sam and Dean love each other.

THE END. That's it! It's all love, baby! WHY be condescending and bitchy and superior and antagonistic... when it's about the LOVE?

I don't get people sometimes.

ETA: Because I keep getting asked (to my utter befuddlement - WHY would you want to see it?) I won't point you to the wank. One, it's not focused in any one special place, and two, this is not funny, OMGYOUSUCKGODIEINHELL wank, this is calm statements that we are all stupid because we happen to see something in canon that this person/people do not see. I don't think that deserves to be perpetuated. Feel free to go looking yourself, but I'm not linking anything. Sorry.

Dude, I don't know specifically, but it's been leaking everywhere, it's just so fucking *pervasive* - basically people are telling other people that OMG Wincest is WRONG and by the way there's NO BASIS FOR IT IN CANON YOU IDIOTS!

I was expecting quality wank, this is just fandom being bitchy, although by definition wank is technically fandom being bitchy, but yeah, you get what I mean. Don't pretend you don't, because you'd be lying.

Yeah.

That's my story and I'm sticking to it.

I hear you. I hate wank with all the passion in my little soul, which means that I love the squishy awesome SQUEE! That's what I'm here for. Y'know? And nobody has the right to tell me that what I enjoy is wrong, because WHO THE FUCK IS IT HURTING? No one, that's who! We're just having FUN! And if you feel so crappy about yourself that you have to put down others for what they enjoy, well, I pity you.

I specifically detest being condescended to like I'm a fucking five-year old. Even if the comments weren't to me in specific, I still feel talked down to when someone basically insinuates that we're all a bunch of fucktards for seeing basis for Wincest in canon.

Dude, my husband has three brothers and freaking SHITS himself over the subtext, all arm flails and "BROTHERS DON'T EYEFUCK OMG WHAT IS GOING ON?!"

So...yeah. It's all a matter of point of view and opinion, so don't try to make it out like YOUR way is the right way.

Wow. Sorry to rant all over you, hon. Hee!

Oh I am so amused that that's your husband's reaction! HEE! *adores* Yaknow, I need me a boy like that. Mona's Boy responded to the Hooker Picture of Love by saying "They look like hustlers! There's no other way to interpret that!" *giggles* SO MUCH LOVE! (I'd like a boy PERIOD, but, hey, a girl can dream!)

Yeah, he's equal parts freaked and fascinated by the slash vibes, I think. Hee! Like he'll watch and make a face and be all "Okay, brothers DO NOT DO THAT" and then later he'll be all "GOD, Sam, throw him a bone! CAN'T YOU SEE HE NEEDS YOU?!"

It amuses me.

Of *course* not, honey. Don't think that for one second. In fact, I very much liked your post, and agreed with it quite thoroughly. Wincest isn't *wholly* canon for me, and I sometiems have weird disconnect moments where my fanon DeanandSam collides with the canon one, but mostly they get along nicely ^_^ I was going to comment, but I've basically been avoiding the whole thing.

*hugs!*

Okay, I'm just -- I'm a little paranoid! I had no idea this was going to explode, I never would have made that post. The wank is everywhere! I cannot escape!

I totally understand. And now I kind of hope I don't get any backlash from this post (which would be horrifically ironic, but yaknow) and I'm sorry you did. Fandom does, on occasion, suck beyond the telling of it.

Fortunately, it usually rocks my pants, so. I forgive it its little spasms!

Don't be paranoid! You totally said NOTHING wrong. Plus, it was in YOUR journal. That's your space, yo, to say whatever you want. What I'm upset about are the people just going on comment sprees all over LJ and telling people they're stupid for seeing whatever they see in the context of canon or RPS. THAT'S lame, y'know?

*hugs*

From: [identity profile] keepaofthecheez.livejournal.com
Sadly, I've seen it several times in the past few days. Generally by the same people, too. I kind of get the feeling like it's just these people trying to feel like they're...I dunno...better than the majority or something? Above us all? And since the majority likes Wincest, then Wincest must be looked down upon with disdain and there's NO context for it, and you're silly to think so and blah blah blah-cakes.

You're right. There's NO true interpretation of canon, just what YOU interpret. And that should be all that matters, but apparently it's not.

Dude, did I MISS THE WANK AGAIN?! You know how I love to point and laugh. *sigh* I'm so out of it, I don't even know what's going on.

Today I have been inundated with stupid. So it surprises me not that the stupid creeps in SPN fandom as well.

Eeeep! Well, I certainly hope this person realizes that Wincest is that majority way that people go.

But hey, I respect both sides. I think the only way to enjoy anything is to see it from different angles, and slash is such a fun way to go about it.

Yes, love, that's all there is and should be! No wankee.

Is there wank going on AGAIN? Duh.

Fandom would be too boring without it huh? Why does some people NOT understand that there are different opinions for nearly every-fucking-thing of this world? OMG. *gets angry*

But hon, you're sosososoright. It's all love, baby. That sums it up perfectly. :)

Dude. I'm not even a person who normally sees slash or whatever when it isn't there. It has to be REALLY blatant for me to be like, "Oh yeah, they want each other", and even *I* can see the Sam/Dean lurrrrrrve.

Like seriously. They TOTALLY love each other in a way that many brothers do not. People can take that however they want it, doesn't bother me.

[It might also help that I just came home from the slashiest non-gay movie I've seen since I last saw a movie with actual boy!sex.]

Ok I've not seen the wank, but I'm guessing it has to do with people/a person saying Wincest is wrong.

Here's my 2 cents. I am anti-wincest, I really don't like it, I don't like the idea of it, and it makes me feel kinda sick, but it also makes me feel sick to think that people would then force that opinion onto other people. If they're grown ups then it's their decision if they ship Sam/Dean, I'd expect a non-wincest person to be as thoughtful in their non-wincesting as most people are in their wincesting. ie. Stuff behind cuts, no graphic stuff shoved down the throats of others.

And like you say in the earlier comments, it's all a matter of perception.

Anyway I hope I've not got the wrong end of this stick.

Why can't everyone just get along? Myself, I don't go in for the Wincest but I'm not going to begrudge it anyone else or go off one one about "how wrong it is". It's fandom for crying out loud, if people are happy with Wincest then that's that. If people are happy without Wincest then that's that too.

Fandom is 99% drama most of the time, you've gotta laugh!

*Hugs you* I will back you up on this because I've had people rant and rave about real person slash which has made me feel like shit (and I even suffered a panic attack because of it). I've finally just accepted what I like, and I realize that not everyone will agree with it, but it's my choice, innit? Seriously. It's really not necessary to lash out at other people. It's very much like the crazy people in religion who try cramming their beliefs down your throat because you don't necessarily believe [insert crazy idea here] (please note, I'm not singling out any one religion or calling everyone who believes in a specific religion crazy--most are awesome people just trying to live their lives).

My personal view is helped by the Beatles: if it's not hurting anyone...let it be. For serious. Everyone would just be happier if they could just disagree and let it be. I can understand if people think it's disrespectful and wrong and nasty...but honestly? Fandom isn't about disrespecting people. Fandom is about the love you have for something and expressing it through words/art/etc.

I guess that's all I have to say (this is a touchy subject for me), but yeah. Even though I'm not a Supernatural person, I am a damn proud member of fandom, and people just need to live and let live.

My ex used the phrase "Because the writers want it that way" when my friends and I would wax philosophical about any of our fandoms.

My response to this canon/fanon Supernatural wank is.... Because the writerfolk want it that way. Period. Everyone has the right to write what floats their boat.

You know the phrase "My house, my rules" ? Well, Supernatural canon/fanon incest, wincest, demoncest, metallicarsex, whatever should be viewed the same way. "My fic, my brain, my tastes, my rules. Respect 'em or leave 'em. Don't expect me to change 'em for you".

And HELL don't come into 'my house', tell me you don't like my 'decor' and tell me I'm 'WRONG'. Your mom would be appalled at such bad manners.
