The Japanese stuff? *shakes head* I don't know how you guys are going to cover the yaoi/slash comparison stuff. There's just so much going on there.
Funny story? *pokes*
"The fact that is was [insert name here]'s [insert body part of choice]'s doing [insert sex act of choice] to him was [insert positive adjective]..." is uncountable.
That line rings very true to me in terms of a RayK POV dS fic. I guess Fraser's the "gayer" one in that pairing.
But I think that theme is definitely prevalent in the S&H and Pros fandoms (from both characters' sides), and maybe Sentinel too, at least from Jim's POV. It's present in dS, but not as there as in the others, I would say. (And this is a lot of speculation on my part.) Probably because RayK and Fraser are, to some extent, 'pre-queered for your viewing pleasure' to quote Kat Allison.
Hmm. It would be interesting to do an anaylsis of the relationship dynamics and popular themes in the slash fanfiction of fandoms like HP and DS, as compared the fanfiction (I hesistate to call it slash) of a fandom like QaF, where everybody is, in fact, gay and out of the closet.
And thank you for you ramblings. I did enjoy them.
