If you're into dude slash then you can be all 'oh, I only read stories in which Spock gets his pon farr and he and Kirk are on Risa at the time and everyone wears a mask and etc etc'

Aaaand.... snarfing my coffee. Seriously. So true! I don't get OTP-ness, as a rule, anyway – what I want is good writing, first, and all other desires come later. Who cares if Spock's in ponn farr if the story is full of comma splices and verb-tense disorders and badfic clichés? Sadly, 'good writing' is a rather imposing limit, and if you add 'femslash,' you're left with a very sad Venn diagram indeed. (I mean, OKAY, I have suffered through some serious abuses of language and punctuation and style and imagination for the sake of kinky Kira/Dax fic. So maybe I'm a total hypocrite.)

This is something I've really enjoyed about [livejournal.com profile] where_no_woman – okay, maybe not a lot of femslash, especially for a comm devoted to women, but most of what goes up there is really, actually, honestly good. Such a relief.
