Fan Fic is a cesspool of immorality.

according to this paper from MIT, women are the primary authors of the genre.

The author postulates that internet anonymity allows wimmin to let it all hang out, so to speak.

Random fan fiction fact I just saw, that was so weird I had to post here. :blink:

QuoteSearch engine data reveals the extent of Fan Fiction demand. With Harry Potter's terminus, Potter fans dominate the fan fiction category. Surprisingly, the second most searched for "fan fiction term" was for a fan fiction website devoted to the 1960s series Bonanza (Gunsmoke came in 4th).

Also, to keep this post on topic...
QuoteThe third most popular fan fiction search term is for adult content. Of the 40,491 sites in our Adult category, the site with the highest percentage of female visitors (64.3%) is AdultFanfiction.net (proceed at your own risk).
It is far better for the truth to tear my flesh to pieces, then for my soul to wander through darkness in eternal damnation.

Jet: So what kind of woman is she? What's Julia like?
Faye: Ordinary. The kind of beautiful, dangerous ordinary that you just can't leave alone.
Jet: I see.
Faye: Like an angel from the underworld. Or a devil from Paradise.

Why do people continue asking the question Herr Doktor Freud asked when he already answered it? :huh:

Maybe because Freud's a discredited hack?

His work on sexual inversion is most enlightening!

I drank because I wanted to drown my sorrows, but now the damned things have learned to swim.

Everything about Freud has been discredited?  Go make an alt-hist map where the anime princesses take over the remains of the Mutsu and invade the land of lesbian tentacle raping Finnish emo-teens.
I have come to believe that the whole world is an enigma, a harmless enigma that is made terrible by our own mad attempt to interpret it as though it had an underlying truth.

Sorry...I'm late to the party.  Did you gentlemen figure out what it is that women really want?

Control over their household. We've known that for 600 years.

If I knew, I sure as hell wouldn't be posting here.
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

Marx at least didn't falsify results.

I made an exaggerated, unsubstantiated statement on the internet!? Oh, noes! How criminal of me. :(
