Got a review on The Pit for my story Playing with Fire (link leads to FF.net) that said--and I quote:
omg
that was umm well I can't really comment because I ama girl myself and if i
said that was "cool" or "awesome" it would sound like I am lesbian, which i'm
not
but Great penmenship
...? I don't understand... If you don't want to sound like you're a lesbian, then why would you a) read fanfic that is clearly marked as containing a lesbian pairing, b) read one that is clearly going to be sexual in nature (all you have to do is look at the summary and the rating to figure that one out) and c) comment on it in the first place?
Also, most importantly, why would you be concerned with whether or not someone on the internet who you don't know is going assume you're a lesbian, especially when that person is the one who wrote the fic. I just...
Damn it.
