puddingcatHeavens, I almost forgot to submit prompts for ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-community.gif)
springkink! I've resubmitted 6 that weren't picked last time, and dreamed up 8 new ones. I think there's some good ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
daegaer and louiselux bait in there to ease my first few weeks in my new job... < / puppydogeyes > ;)
This time, I will be good. I know I can't do more than a couple of short fics, especially with a move & everything associated with it. Please feel free to kick me if I appear to be doing otherwise.
ETA the bit I originally meant to write:
With all the LJ fuss about underage characters in fanfic / fanart, I'm not sure quite what to think of Jilly Cooper's latest (Wicked). I *like* Jilly Cooper, with all her 2-dimensional expositions and lack of understanding of anyone without a £200k house in the country. It reminds me of growing up during the Eighties :)
I'm less sure how to take sex scenes (not graphic, but certainly R-rated at times, in comparison with much of the fic out there) between schoolchildren. I *know* a large percentage of kids have sex before they're 16, but I'm still not comfortable with it being made sexy in a bestselling book. And, of course, why is it ok for a published author to write things that would get the user kicked off LJ?

Coming along very very late to this...
Date: 2007-08-30 11:25 am (UTC)My High School Sweetheart (tm) was a love, we had a lot of fun, and some quite good sex. We broke up with some teenage angst, but wound up still being friends eleven years later.
I guess by 'problems' you mean teen pregnancy? I agree that is a scary scary thing, but most of my friends were sexually active from their mid teens onwards and no one got pregnant. I think it's all about the context - teenagers shagging is part of growing up. I think shagging much older people, or where there's an abusive edge/uneven power balance it is much ickier. I must say - I've always been horribly freaked out by some of the Hermione/Snape stuff out there, even when there wasn't graphic sex attached!
