Dismissing slash fanfic as “dirty secrets” and homemade porn by straight women has two effects: on the one hand, straight and queer women are shut up for exploring their sexual fantasies, for owning their sexual identities, on the other hand queer sexualties and queer erotica are put firmly into an unsavoury corner."<ref>{{source| url = http://juno-magic.tumblr.com/post/91133520246/i-loved-that-essay-on-the-4th-wall-you-reblogged | title = I loved that essay on the 4th Wall you reblogged... |archiveurl= http://web.archive.org/web/20141224203508/http://www.peeep.us/31154ef8 | archivedate = 2014-12-24 }}</ref>}}

{{Quotation|"this question asks what more fandom can do than it hasn’t already done, and it is absolutely vital that we internalize everything otter outlned, but i think the question itself has an inherent flaw:
it is not fandom’s responsibility to make things better.
the onus is and will always be ultimately on the creators that gave birth to the fandom to create an environment that lets it flourish. if the creative team, marketing arm, and publisher analogue are the acorn to fandom’s tree, how the hell can you expect it to flourish when the seed was bad to begin with?"<ref>{{source| url = http://ademska.tumblr.com/post/91103039903/i-loved-that-essay-on-the-4th-wall-you-reblogged | title = TITS MCGEE. | archiveurl = http://web.archive.org/web/20141224203651/http://ademska.tumblr.com/post/91103039903/i-loved-that-essay-on-the-4th-wall-you-reblogged | archivedate = 2014-12-24 }}</ref>}}
