gone for a week, may or may not have internet (if I do, it'll be dial-up), will try to work on fic about Rafa having a thing for Novak's glasses but no promises, and if I don't reply to emails in a timely manner, sorry!

oh, also? RAFA WON THE US OPEN. IT WAS AWESOME. (and Barça spanked the Greek club whose name I can't pronounce. keep up the excellent work, boys! these are the kinds of results we like to see.)

There are so many fandoms that are stuck in this sort of thinking, and it's really ridiculous--I'm all for slashing pretty guys together, truly, but you don't need to be bashing women to accomplish it. Believe me, it's better if you don't!

OY. Hmph. I'm really starting to think that I have to write this fic, if only to buck this stupid trend.

I always think it's down to a combination of factors - average age of writers, amount of sexism in the source material (and unfortunately there's a lot in professional sports), decent fandom role models, stuff like that - but god, I would like to have a recs list that doesn't include warnings for WAG-bashing. >_>;;
