Bwah hah.

Something interesting I read --

Kids shouldn't be reading or writing slash. And they are probably only
writing it because they've read it from some adult site or zine. I doubt
that they would have come up with the idea on there [sic] own.


*raises hand* Ooh! Ooh! I was writing Legolas/Gimli when I was twelve. Xena/Gabrielle when I was thirteen or fourteen. Fraser/Vecchio when I was seventeen. Of these -- only the Fraser/Vecchio after my awareness of the existence of slash online. And I would have written it ANYWAY.

So c'mon, people on my flist. Anybody else out there writing slash when they were underage and/or unaware of the existence of it as an actual "thing"? Tell, tell.

When I was eight, I watched a TV series about Babar and his friends, including his two advisors, Cornelious and Pompadour. Thr latter was very aptly named, dressed in pink, and for the longest time, I was convinced he was a she, and that Pompadour and Cornelius should get married. Then I saw the episode "Friendly Agreement" and was devestated to hear Pompadour referred to as "he," because I had so wanted them to get married! But as I continued to watch through that particular episode(about their friendship, and my favourite episode because of that and because Isabelle played a very big role, and I loved her because she had my name), I wondered if perhaps they could get married anyway? I count that as my first slash moment.
