So this is one is via our referer logs. Somone was searching Google for “Queer as Folk” slash fiction. The top result was an article by fan fiction writer Debra Fran Baker who says that by it’s very nature, the show isn’t slashable:
On screen, it’s when they transgress the norms of male behavior in a particular culture. Examples would be the way Jim and Blair can’t keep their hands off each other or repeatedly invade each other’s personal space. Another is Skinner crying when Mulder is abducted in front of his eyes. Starsky and Hutch sobbing in each other’s arms, Vinnie and Sonny letting the music speak of their feelings for each other in that movie theater, Bayliss cupping Pembleton’s face on the roof – these are all examples of “slashy” moments created when the characters transgress societal norms.
