Go to AO3 and search exclusively F/F. There is a decent amount up.

Or prompt more here. You get 5 per page. There are so few femslash prompts so of course there are little fills.

the point



you



if you think ppl are too scared to write non-fluffy stormpilot it goes double for femslash. people feel "safer" writing kink for two white men than they do femslash.

Oh it's you again. Please stop.

Can you stop with the race-based ship whining?

[(Anonymous)]

Someone always brings this kind of thread around to judging ships. It's fucking tiresome.

[(Anonymous)]

what in the world are you going on about?

Um. Huge femslasher here. The lack of it has never been from people being afraid. Most women in fandom are straight, they don't care about, read, or write f/f ships. That's it. I've written kinky stormpilot and femslash and guess what? Neither got any hate. Calm down and stop believing the hype that fandom is out to attack you. 98% of the time the rest of fandom doesn't even know you exist.

I think this is it. The majority of fanfiction writers are straight women, so unless you're dealing with a major canon f/f pairing is not that surprising.

(This is also the reason for the obsession with who tops or bottoms in stories.)

Nah, I've seen gay and bi women get hung up on that top/bottom dynamic shit too. It's an equal opportunity brand of stupidity.

Depends on the fandom. I've had people in femslash dominated fandoms attack people for shipping femslash ships that were abusive or unhealthy.
