...SHOULD have been the title of my last post. Many apologies
for my error. I'm always griping about inconsiderate listies, and
then I go and act like one.
And now, to keep this from being a completely useless post.
*grins*
Do y'all remember an article about "Harry Potter Porn" that a Mr.
Christopher Noxon wrote? It was published ages ago, but every
so often someone new runs across it, and the whole debacle
begins anew.
Take this, for example:

I have no problem with people's taste differing from mine, but it
really tweaks me when they form such a concrete and
unfavourable opinion of something they know nothing about.
Like friends *koff* of mine who would lay into me about reading
Harry Potter just because it was popular and supposedly written
for children. In my mind, blasting adult fanfiction like this isn't all
that different. I challenge anyone to read PoU, sex scenes and
all, and come out at the end thinking it was "porn."
Ah well...enough rambling from me, eh?
