Well, first let me say  "AAAIIIIIIIGH!  I missed this!"  To my
embarrassment, I skipped over the fic, thinking "Ah, another Lemon
from Kun-chan.  Nice title.  Gotta read that later."  But you know
how "later" get later and later and...

*laugh* Awwww... well, I tend to leave 'fics to read so late that my
account expires and all my files get deleted. ^^;

Suffice to say that I'll read it first thing when I get home
tonight.

*wonders when tonight is/was*

If I interpret these reactions right, this is a lemon with male
homosexual and romantic encounters between Ranma and someone else
(prolly Ryouga), right?  Thanks, Kun-chan.  After reading all the

You'll have to wait and see. ^_^

"gay" fanfic spam, I thought about writing a *real* gay lemon,
myself, i.e. no cop-out changes to female form.  I gave that up,
since I really don't have the time for yet another fic project (I
multi-task, but there are limits :) and I'd have to do reasearch
for this one, too.  Anyway, thanks for doing this.

Let's say that it's not a cop out in the fact that it's not a guy-in-a-
girl-body going with a guy ... It's definately not female-female,
either. ^_^  That's why it makes some of the guys here uncomfortable
when they read it. *grin*  Not a naked, curvy figure in sight...

Hmmm, that's very interesting..  So the romance was more upsetting
than the sex?  What does that say?  That two men seeking pleasure
together is more acceptable than two men in love?

Hmm... I've never seen that type of reaction in my female Ranma-Akane
scenes ... But then, I guess that's just the general male bias for
fem-fem things, and it doesn't really matter about the diff between
romance and just looking for 'fun'...

Hrm ... there's also a thing in lemon 'fics for girls mastrubating,
and that seems perfectly fine ... but I've never read one where a
guy does that ... I wonder if that would be even less well received
than a general male-male scene or what...

Good thinking.  Kudos, Kun-chan.

Thank you! ^_^

: Personally I could have lived without this 'fic, since answers to those

: easy, but I think it was a good thing this story was written, since it made
: me think. Hope I wasn't
: the only one.
And Kudos to you, Jussi.  Not many people are able to do that.

*nod* But it seemed to be a 'fic that made the readers think, or at least
re-evaluate their feelings. (All the replies I've receieved have been
from males, BTW)

Kun-chan...
