This webinar was originally presented at Leaky Con 2024About this Event
We don’t know when you started reading fanfiction, but when we were young, they NEVER mentioned consent, the graphic parts were unrealistic, and queerness was for the heterosexual gaze. Basically, it was pornhub.
As consent culture has improved, so has the quality of fanfiction. Join us (Sex Educator Rae and Data Scientist Makenzie) as we fangirl hard in an academic way about the virtues of modern dirty fanfiction as an educational media. Themes explored will include consent, kink, and queerness. Side quests will include a crash course in current consent language and data science. All participants must be of legal wizarding age to attend.
This is a virtual presentation of our talk from Leaky Con 2024.
Send Rae a message, and she'll find a way to help you attend.
