Comment to the article:
“My point is not that RPS is right, or that CS is wrong. My point is that all slash lies somewhere between black and white–legally, morally, culturally. We all have a place where we draw the line, and we all are forced to draw lines across a hundred different dimensions - age, genre, pairing, and more. Reasoned debate about where the lines should fall can only be a good thing, but I don’t think either side should forget that we are drawing all of these lines in so much grey sand.”
