They are the ones who write the atrocious "you raped me, I
love you" fics and the stories with bad cliched premises, e.g. Draco
and Hermione are Head Boy and Girl and are living in a suite set
aside for them where love blooms despite Draco's bigotry and the
years of insults towards her and her friends, or Kagome has an
argument with insensitive two timing oafish InuYasha and runs away
from him into the loving arms of Sesshoumaru who reveals his secret
desires for her.

You're giving teenage girl "Fanfic writers" too much credit in assuming they
write fics where Hermione and Draco get together or where Kagome runs off to
Sesshoumaru. Usually it's Harry and Draco or Harry and Snape, and it's
Inuyasha who runs off to Sesshoumaru. :P

I am NOT saying that teenage girls should be kept off of any reformed
FFML.

Though I wouldn't shed a tear if they decided to stay away. The less bad
slash we have around here, the better. But, bad slash comes part in parcel
with change...
