::sigh:: I think I've finally decided to give up all but carefully-chosen and cheerful Who meta and discussion. Because really, is there anything more buzzkill than having to defend all your character preferences like it's your doctoral thesis? Your doctoral thesis about killing puppies, to a roomful of professors endowed by PETA?*
Is it the het? Does het really bring the wank to the yard? Is there some meta reason for this that has to do with the patriarchy or overidentification or accessibility? Luckily, Who still produces good fic, great vids, funny macros, and, you know, episodes, so I think I'll get by.
Clearly, I have been both spoiled and sheltered by my other fandoms, which: hi, I love you all the more right now.

*This is not about the race/class/religion meta. I like that.

So it's not just you!

I think the only sane way of being a fan of something Who-sized is to have a small, sane group of people to talk about it with, and oh look, I have a friendslist already! So I will keep talking about Who here, I guess, I'll just try to do it in the least wank-attracting way possible. (And I have a WiP going that I really kind of love, which is in a rare pairing, thank jesus)
