thrihyrneThank you so much for those involved thus far! Feel free to ask friends who you think would be interested in sharing their views who may not know me from Eve's housecat and send them on over. All of these posts are public, but you do have to be a registered LJ'er. Women only, however, for this particular article.
My final question, and the crux in some ways of what I think I'll focus on for the article: if you're an R to NC-17 slasher, whether writing, reading, artist, viewer of art, vidder or video viewer, when the characters get intimate with one another, are you strictly a voyeur, do you do a bit of self-insert of a sort into one or both of the characters, or is it a combination? If a combination, does it depend on the pairing/fandom/something else? In other words, are you just watching the men together, or are you putting yourself into the action, but within the body of one or both of them? I'll be very interested to read your comments as this, I think, is what fascinates me the most. And hopefully will be interesting to Filament readers!

Date: 2010-07-16 04:09 am (UTC)I think I mostly like to imagine being the character who gets to be with the one I would most like to be with. And if I'm in the pov of one of my oc's, I invent someone I would like to be with if I were them. But I don't imagine myself there! NEVER! I imagine being the character and experiencing what I imagine he would feel ,think, want, do, etc.
I prefer to write in the first person, but I also sometimes write as a voyeur. That is, I imagine a sex scene in my head like a movie. What the characters would say, their movements and facial expressions, etc. and then simply write it as I see it in my head.
When reading, I feel like I'm experiencing it but sometimes as one of the characters or both and sometimes as an observer.
Bottom line, either way I'm a self inserter only NEVER NEVER as myself!
Hope I'm making sense - if so, I guess that means there's a first time for everything. LOL!
