For those that dislike/hate/loathe mpreg fiction in whatever fandom you read in, do you just hate written mpreg fiction? Or do also dislike/hate/loathe movies like Junior. What about the tv show Alien Nation where the men would give birth? Or is that different because they were aliens? How about the episode of the Cosby Show where all the men were pregnant and gave birth to weird things like sandwiches and a blimp of orange soda? And I think a model boat was involved too. Sure, it was a dream but still. Mpreg.

Can I ASK anymore questions? Apparently, yes.

It used to bug me because we're writing about men and they should be allowed to be men. It seems so bizarre to me to take something so fundamentally female and apply it to a guy - if you want to write about someone getting pregnant, why don't you write about a woman? I don't know. The whole idea that the point of romance and sex is procreation is just so archaic to me.

And no, Junior didn't bother me because it was a ridiculous comedy and because it wasn't about a gay relationship. LET THE GAY MEN BE GAY MEN. DO NOT GIVE THEM A WOMB PLEASE.

ANYWAY, it doesn't bother me anymore because it's less prevalent, and also because [livejournal.com profile] memphis86 is brilliant.
