when they're applied to relationships, ehh, that makes me uncomfortable but that's mainly because I have a knee-jerk reaction to being told I'm a lesbian because I'm in a relationship with another woman.
Which is what I really don't think when I apply the term femslash to a relationship between women. Femslash, at least to me, says that the story is f/f. Both of them could be bisexual, heterosexual, homosexual or asexual. But that's just me.
I love you for this. In a totally platonic, would you like a muffin sort of way. The idea that a relationship, ANY relationship, can just end because it's just over seems to be pretty rare, particularly in fanfic
Well, I haven't written that part yet and I'm very afraid that I will totally screw up. I think I managed fine with my last story about a pairing that ended with a breakup, but you never know. I planned the story that way mainly because I had enough of the character bashing that the SO of one of the characters in my OTP had to endure just because people think the only way to break them up is either her dying (if she's lucky), him being gay, or her turning into an awful bitch.
What does "other" entail?
I think people don't really know yet what to make of "other" and "multi", so there's a bit of an overlap. But "other", among other things, seems to contain sex with/between non-humans (including cars), genderswap and threesomes. The threesomes are categorized as "multi" sometimes as well.
