*blinks* That's... really true. Only a very small percent of those who read comics seem to be the fic writing sort. (And, without knowing any figures, I'd guess that comic readers are still a male majority, who might not be exactly a fan of the slash.)
No, Madame. Most things need porn. Occasionally, however, one might feel the need for fannish doings of the fluff persuasion, in which kissing and cuddling reduce one to an over sugared puddle, with nary a penis to be found. True facts.
*nods* And they were also American VAs, which is not a bad thing at all, but I'm a bit of a snob for subtitles with the original VAs. (So while is was a bit of a kick to meet Aaron Dismuke [Edward Elric on Fullmetal Alchemist], I wouldn't have, say, waited in line for almost four hours to get his autograph like I did with Yamaguchi Kappei at Otakon last year.) But, yes, I definitely concede that there’s a different freak out potential involved in seeing than in hearing.
(Also, in regards to a few earlier posts: I’m not sure that Jensen Ackles would be Cap for me, but OMG would I love to see him as Hawkeye.)
