I was originally reluctant to take part in the hop because it was explicitly m/m focused, but I compromised and decided to offer one visitor their choice of a title from towering review pile - if that happens to be a m/m title, that's great, but if it happens to be a f/f or trans* title, that's great too. I absolutely love the idea of donations as prizes. Really wish I had thought of that. :) Very well said (as always), hon.

All flavors of life and gender and sexuality are welcome and accepted. :) SMP is run by two bisexuals and someone who identifies as genderqueer, so it's important to us that everything be represented, embraced, and loved.

Biphobia is a terrible thing, and the way it comes from all sides can leave bisexuals feeling very isolated. Tolerance is tolerance, and it needs to happen so all can feel accepted as the human beings they are. Thanks for the heads up. We did contact K-lee about it, so I hope that will be fixed soon!

And it is a shame when some of the hate comes from within the community - there are enough haters out there without turning on each other.

Will have to research HAH more when I have the time, but thanks for the heads-up!

I hope you'll stop by and give it a read. I agree, equality for all means ALL. I am also noting that your link on the Hop Against Homophobia page is wonky. It's missing the .com portion so I had to find you the long way. Maybe you could get K-lee to fix that because I'd hate some people to miss your post due to the broken link.

And there's nothing here to disagree with. I love m/m fiction, and can't stand those people who complain about women writing or reading it. And you're right. It is only the women who complained about. Donations as prizes is awesome!
