Tsunami of Polls #1 : Any interest in a comm devoted to Buffy and the women of the Buffyverse?

#1 - Thank you to whomever gifted me with a temporary paid account last month. Now I can create polls! Oh wonderful Anonymous Benefactor, you have no idea what you have unleashed upon this fandom.

#2 - Thanks also the the lovely velvetwhip for coming up with the insanely awesome title/tag phrase "tsunami of polls" and allowing me to snag it.

***************

The other day I was having a conversation with wickedbish in which I may have mentioned that most fandoms and fandom activity, in my experience, are focused primarily on the male characters. I assumed this was common knowledge. Except that he didn't know that. Because, you see, Ryan's favorite character is Willow (see #2 in his list of "13 Witches I Fucking Love"); he still mourns Tara (as do I; shared grief is comforting) and Buffy is one of his heros. The Gift has convinced him to not commit suicide "so many times". He's all about the ladies, bless.

You know what they say about "assuming".

Oops.

 Then clockwork_hart1 (Lucy) popped into the conversation and in her brilliant, enthusiastic way suggested the idea of a comm dedicated to Buffy, the other women in the 'verse and their interrelationships - complete with a name (Summers Blood) and a banner (she's working on it - is there no end to the young woman's talents?) and three-part harmony. What that might actually look like or what interest there would actually be in such a thing was a matter of conjecture. So I'm channeling my inner Willow (Research Gal) for my very first poll.

What say you, Gentle Reader? Based just on the title of this post, you probably know who you are and how you stand.

(And as this is my first poll, please let me know if it functions ok. And I apologize for the wonky formatting. The LJ instructions for poll-making are vague and confusing at best. So says I.)

I have to admit my brain read that as "heroinegangbang" at first (oops.) It looks like a really nifty community though - you don't have to write femmeslash as an excuse to express interest in the women or exclude the men entirely.

(Also your icon is gorgeous - ALY HAIRPORN FTW!)

*giggles at your brain*

Exactly! And I'm very proud of the story that community wrung out of me. I am thinking of a sequel...

I'm glad I keep you amused sweetie, because sometimes my brain SCARES me.

Did I mention also that my first association with "heroine" is the drug? I don't know why I've never even seen it or known anyone who used it. But put that together with the rest and...you get the idea. Scary.

And this is why I call Buffy my "Hero" not "heroine".

And yay for sequels! Sometimes just going over to a "new place" generates ideas doesn't it?

And I happen to have had a "thing" for red-headed women my entire life. No idea why.
