Huh. I hadn’t really noticed but you are right. Slash as a content marker or something is not really around anymore. I keep reading older fic (Sga over the holidays) and all those fics that deal with the huge issue of Don’t ask, don’t tell used to be a big thing (in other fandoms as well, for instance Hawaii 5-0). On the one hand I am glad that there isn’t such a focus on all the conscience wrangling of career over personal happiness anymore, on the other hand I can’t believe it’s all sunshine and roses right now. I mean I wish reality was the way fic portrays people’s attitudes to sexuality but I’m sure the problems have just shifted a bit rather than wiped out.
