      I am all for dark, complicated, erotic queer stories being written even though they are typically not my thing (but sometimes they are!), but I wish I could find more of the light, conflictless, "pure cinnamon roll" queer SFF that people sometimes talk about as contrast too?

      YES THANK YOU every time the discourse comes up im like - i absolutely write dark and complicated queer stories and love it when we talk about how ownvoices ones are important, but let's not pretend like happy queer fluff is the Market Friendly Version???

      Replying to @fiversdream @ElliottDunstan

      The market friendly version is in an uncanny valley of angst where there are bad things that happen that frequently don't have an emotional truth behind them (and are treated as fluffy, like the several fluffy contemporary YA stories actually full of bullying and forced outing??)

      That freaks me out so much and seems so common in YA contemp. Less so in other genres / age ranges?

      Replying to @bogiperson @ElliottDunstan

      That's my understanding- I don't read a lot of contemp though, I rarely see anything that looks like my experience in it and it's harder for me to comfortably take that than the same experiences unlike my own in a fantastic/speculative setting

      tbh my preferred flavour of queer romance is a mix of angst and fluff where all the difficulties come from things that are either in the past or not related to being queer, and where the people in the relationship aren't shitty to each other. I still read the darker stuff, but.

          I think that's the sweet spot for me too but contemp feels weird to me when it elides the difficulties that can come with being queer here/now- not necessarily like in a bullying and forced outing way, more the daily lower-key internal aspects of anxiety, exhaustion, frustration?

          Replying to @quartzen @fozmeadows and

          I get a strange sense of dislocation reading characters my age (early 30s) in the US that don't seem to have the anti-same-sex-marriage crusades of the Bush years as a reference point during their adolescence, or the sense that our progress since then is precious but precarious
