Hahaha. I just spotted this in the archives of Fandom!Secrets Lj. Full disclosure link: http://community.livejournal.com/fandomsecrets/100858.html Number 4 on the list.







The question is, was this done by one of us? Wasn't me.. primarily because I have absolutely no art skills (photo-manip included).

It is a sentiment most of us feel. I know I got way too sick of Anita's abuse of the men in her life. Dub-con, non-con, metaphysically forced sex, and repressing sexual orientations do not create healthy relationships among sexual partners. Anita has developed her own Madonna/Whore complex so far it's barely recognizable. You can't treat your partners like crap and still claim to be the good guy. Eurgh.

As for the BDSM... I got nothin'. Not familiar enough with the scene to pass judgement, but judging by how blatantly unresearched the rest of the books are, I'm guessing it's rather shoddy.

LOL! (it's all true)

XDDDD I remember that one. I've seen a few anti-AB secrets there, and was kind of amused to see that most of the people replying there were of similar mind.

Hee! I didn't do it, but I was thinking it.

I wouldn't say her fans suck...but the troos do. They make me homicidal, because they refuse to use their heads and see what a travesty LKH has made of this series.

Yea, her grasp of how the BDSM community works is just mind boggling. In the beginning, I tried to ignore it since I'm pretty used to people doing a pretty crap job at writing about it (yay fanfic!) - but when she started going all over the web about how edgy and into the darker side of life/sex/clothing I had to roll my eyes. Hard.




I wonder if she and Darla ever see these and laugh since - you know - these unhappy readers are obviously not cool enough to grasp the darkity darkness of her books.

I just LOL'ed. Seriously. Shirts to match eye-color? Only really works in anime. And even then, not that often.

I was thinking more LEATHER TUXEDOS. *shudders*

[relmneiko.livejournal.com]

Wait wait - leather tuxedos? I must had either stopped reading by that point or somehow blocked it out. Who was wearing one, when and for the love of god WHY?!

Jean Claude, and it was because he was out acting sexy for the crowds. Oh yes, and he had no shirt, and he had SILK SUSPENDERS. (Of course, Anita started practically humping his leg on the spot, because he could wear a dead parrot on a string and she'd be rhapsodizing about how sexy it is)

I seem to remember someone saying that he had borrowed Asher's costume from the Gay S&M Phantom of the Opera performance...

[relmneiko.livejournal.com]

That's just beyond horrible. It also reminds me of this (http://kill.greboguru.org/index_files/book_data/anitablake.htm).

It's sad when the original is just about as ridiculous as the parody. Very sad.

[wyrdmuse.livejournal.com]

That parody is just too funny!

[relmneiko.livejournal.com]

Isn't it though? I actually thought it was a real excerpt until they got to the Super Saiyan part. I don't want to think about what that says about LKH's writing.

[cicipsychobunny.livejournal.com]

The Harlequin, I believe. Jean-Claude + spillingfrothylace shirt + leather tuxedo, with Nathaniel standing nearby in gold leather thigh-high boots and a single goldleather G-string*.

It was the only thing that could scrub the earlier "Nathaniel in leather trenchcoat and leather fedora" from my mind.



*And, goes without saying, Micah in a urine-coloured shirt.

O.O LKH's taste didn't just leave her, it ran away screaming. That's the kind of thing I'd expect out of an Austin Powers movie... if Austin Powers was gay.

I really have to wonder what LKH did to her Ken dolls as a child.

[relmneiko.livejournal.com]

Heh, I remember that one. I was like, 'and this is a secret... how?' Whoever she is, she is most definitely not alone on that. *gestures at comm*

Oh fs, you're such a breeding ground for wank Why can't I quit you?
