Aldersprig seeks genderfic prompts

[ysabetwordsmith]

As the giraffe sale continues, aldersprig is requesting prompts about sexuality/gender for writing microfic.  Do you have a favorite orientation or motif that rarely gets much coverage?  Ask for it!  Also, tips get your prompts more length.  This is a favorite theme of mine, and a writer whose work I enjoy, so I'm really looking forward to seeing the results.

Most media depictions of bisexuals are that they are:

1. always promiscuous
2. sexually greedy
2a. necessarily dating persons of both genders simultaneously
3. just going "through a phase"
4. actually going to end up reverting to just being gay/straight (delete as applicable) by the end of the story.


I'd like to see writing that deals with bisexuality without managing to make use any of the above incorrect tropes.

*throws down the metaphorical gauntlet*



I'll state for the record that I admire anyone who can write well, as yours truly can't write for toffee. ;p

1) Love your icon.

2) This was harder than it sounded to do in 150 words, so I picked two established bisexual characters and took a moment in their lives.

Thanks - the icon is freely gankable if you want it, due credit is listed on my user icons page.

I'm sure it was a lot harder than anyone imagined with just 150 words to play with, but you've excelled yourself. :)

Speaking of icons... "ignore the shooty dog thing?"

Oh! *sees the picture this time around.* That's not Giles, that's the evil bat-alien!! *DANCE*

Thank you very much!

Yeah, that icon confused me at first too. :)

Glad it's not just me :-D
