Censorship

February 10, 2007

And it goes on…

A couple months ago, the site where I first posted my fanfics decided to be obnoxious.  If your story had so much as a hint of boy-lovin’ in it, the story had to be labelled yaoi or they would yank it.

Seems reasonable?  Until I point out that yaoi is m/m sex.  In other words, if your story had a man say “I love you,” to another man (or woman to woman, but that’s yuri) then it must be rated–X.  Not PG, PG-13, or R–X.  Mature audiences only.  Only adults can handle this hot stuff.  Porn.

Bastards.

NOW the idiots have decided my stories ALSO have to be tagged ‘hentai.’  That’s PERVERTED, people.  Because it’s got gay sex in it.  I don’t write the kinky stuff, there’s definitely no non-consensual or underage sex anywhere, but because it’s yaoi, it’s perverted.

Nothing Ventured, Nothing Gained had nearly 15,000 hits.  But I pulled it.  I have seventeen stories to go.  I may or may not pull them all, I haven’t decided.  This hurts.  I don’t want to.  But how can I not?
