That's exactly what I'm trying to say. My exact quote, btw, was:
And frankly, if you're judging fanfic based purely on the fandom, if you're judging writers as people as as artists based on the fandom, then you're prejudiced, pure and simple. And frankly, if you're judging fanfic based purely on the fandom, if you're judging writers as people as as artists based on the fandom, then you're prejudiced, pure and simple.
and taking out that middle bit just warps what I actually said.
Becuase hey, I'm not interested in some fandoms and pairings either. For example, I am ont all about the JoLa (Joey/Lance). I'l read it and if it's a good story, I'm likely to like it, but it doesn't niggle me the way, say, Chris/Joey does. In Metallica fandom, I delete anything Kirk/James, because they don't work for me as a pairing (anymore), but I don't go around claiming that all Kirk/James stories suck, nor do I look down on people who write it, which is what people were doing with NSync fandom, which was what inspired the entry with the above quote.
