Fiction & Rape

There's something Seanan McGuire refuses to do to her characters ... and I think I need to check out her books now.

In the comments, [livejournal.com profile] nancylebov references a very interesting article from TOR: A need to deal wounds: Rape of men in Cherryh’s Union-Alliance novels. You should note that this is specifically the rape of male characters by female characters. The lead exhibits are Signy Mallory in Downbelow Station (spec. with regard to Josh Talley) and Ariane Emory I in Cyteen.

:-D

Yes, I realized that when I started looking at her books (under both names) on Amazon!

Someone has nominated the fandom on Yuletide this year, BTW.

I saw that! It's making me seriously consider participating. (And even if I don't, I expect I'll wander around looking at people's letters in case I can write a Treat story.) I think there're other fandoms in there I could offer, since I know I can't just offer the one. *g*
