I think I've lost weight. Goddess knows how since I eat like a pig, but my pants are loose. This may mean I need new pants.
Does "privacy" have a completely different meaning in American from what it means in English? I'm confused by recent discussions invoking "privacy" as an argument against RPF. I can think of a lot of arguments against RPF, but that isn't one that seems logical to me. If it's made up, it's not private, is it?
I may have started a new SPN fic last night. Naughty, since I haven't finished my Big Bang yet.
Well...I'm not a supporter of RPF. I will never write it and I refuse to read it. I could list the reasons why I believe it's wrong, but that really needs a whole separate post, and isn't the point, here.
What confuses me is the invocation of privacy. To me, privacy means something along the lines of confidentiality, so saying that RPF is an invasion of privacy implies that what's being written is true. And it's not, by definition. But what really confuses me is in the P-L discussion everyone seems to accept this peculiar definition of the term.
