"Although slash portrays homosexual relationships, normal gay couples having sex are apparently not enough fun for fanfic authors, and apparently also kind of gross.

"Hugh has to be careful because I discovered this week, I don't know if you know what slash fiction is, but it's basically gay fiction on the internet where you have people like, you know, Captain Kirk and Spock shagging each other, and there's one of me and Hugh!" (Hugh starts laughing) "What're you laughing about? You're the receiver!"
"Does it embarrass you at all that you just measured yer success with women by how much gay porn they've made outta you an' your brother?"

"Look, what these slash writers believe is wrong! We're in the twenty-fourth century, where our relationships are those of mutual respect and understanding for the mind and soul of our partner, not lustful exchanges in which we rip off each other's clothes in turbolifts!"
