Mentioning the Sanitary

I think "Mentioning the Sanitary" isn't really about safe sex per se; it's related to how sex is depicted in fanworks generally--or to rimming, depending on where you're going with the section. And I think the example in this case is not so exceptional; "it's not sanitary" is to rimming as Prostate Introduction is to first-time anal sex. A section that covers how fanworks depict the messier aspects of all kinds of sex could go on a separate page for Sex in Fanworks. (I have another Sentinel example for messy sex: Out of Whack by Bone and Aristide. The rec I saw for it had a lot of warnings attached.)--æþel 22:06, 17 November 2010 (UTC)

Actually, I was thinking, perhaps along with Jim, of hepatitis! The "sanitariness" of sex is not specifically mentioned much in fanworks which always made this stand out for me. But you're right, this would probably be better on the Sex in Fanworks page, or deleted entirely. --Mrs. Potato Head 23:07, 17 November 2010 (UTC)
Ended up just taking it off, doesn't really fit, I guess. --Mrs. Potato Head 09:15, 18 November 2010 (UTC)
