My long-held opinion is that RPF/RPS is the new slash. By that I mean the people who were into slash because it was "out there" and "edgy" and wanted to see themselves as shocking... were kind of left in the lurch now that slash is a no big deal. So they had to find something else to do that would alarm people and cause consternation. So they could feel persecuted and abused, because if they aren't being kicked, then what are they?
