release the krakon!

So here's my term paper for WMST 3100, Intro to Gay & Lesbian Studies. I know how fandom is, so I'm resigned to the fact that you will now commence writing in your lj's about how unutterably wrong I have gotten it all.

Anyway, many, many thanks to my twelve research subjects; you went above and beyond the call of duty, and it was hard not to make the paper just quote after quote of all the interesting and clever things you said. Enjoy reading for your quotes *g*

Also, okay, look! I'M SORRY for the "erotica" thing! It's an academic paper, okay, I thought it sounded academic. Far be it from me to diss anybody's porn. I like porn! I love porn! Girls like porn! Jiminy cricket, people. *g*
