This is like a plague seeping through TMNT fandom. No offense to people who like this sort of thing, but when I search sites like DeviantArt for Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles art and I innevitably find a good portion of it that features the turtles kissing each other (or worse), I yearn for a filter that gets rid of that. I don't mind nudity. I don't mind porn so long as there's no anal and no rape or bondage. This is too much. I don't want to see my heroes engaging in this filth!
I assert that I'm not being homophobic. I have a gay boss whom I respect greatly (in fact two; they're a couple), and had a gay friend in college, so I have nothing against normal homosexuality. However, normal homosexuals don't automatically approve of incest, and don't get off to men who aren't human, and besides, a lot of this stuff is drawn by female fans who are straight.
So seriously, what is up with this? What is the appeal, what makes this franchise such a major target for gay art?
