Femslash (also known as "f/f slash", "femmeslash", "altfic" and "saffic") is a subgenre of slash fan fiction which focuses on romantic and/or sexual relationships between female fictional characters.〔Lo, Malinda. (4 January 2006) (Fan Fiction Comes Out of the Closet ) AfterEllen.com. Accessed 19 July 2007.〕 Typically, characters featured in femslash are heterosexual in the canon universe; however, similar fan fiction about lesbian characters is commonly labeled as femslash for convenience.〔Herzing, Melissa. (April 2005) (The Internet World of Fan Fiction ) Virginia Commonwealth University. Accessed 12 August 2007.〕 The term is generally applied only to fanworks based on Western fandoms; the nearest anime/manga equivalents are more often called yuri and shōjo-ai fanfiction.〔(【引用サイトリンク】publisher=Dictionary of Anime Fandom )〕 "Saffic" is a portmanteau of Sapphic from the term Sapphic love and fiction.〔Tosenberger, Catherine (2008) "Homosexuality at the Online Hogwarts: Harry Potter Slash Fanfiction" ''Children's Literature'' 36 pp. 185–207 〕 "Altfic" as a term for fanfiction about loving relationships between women was popularized by Xena fans.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Xena Fanfics out of the closet )〕 As of 2006, femslash is enjoying increasing popularity and is the "dominant form" of slash in some fandoms. There is less femslash than there is slash based on male couples;〔 for example, in the ''Lord of the Rings'' fandom, only a small number of femslash stories are written about the Arwen/Éowyn pairing in comparison to slash between the male characters. It has been suggested that heterosexual female slash authors generally do not write femslash, and that it is rare to find a fandom with two sufficiently engaging female characters. Janeway/Seven is the main ''Star Trek'' femslash pairing, as only they have "an on-screen relationship fraught with deep emotional connection and conflict". Although it is debated whether fanfiction about canon lesbians such as Willow and Tara of ''Buffy the Vampire Slayer'' counts as "slash", their relationship storylines are more coy than heterosexual ones, which entices Willow/Tara femslash authors to fill in the gaps in the known relationship storyline.〔 It is "relatively recently" that male writers have begun writing femslash, and this entry of males into femslash has occurred within Buffy femslash. The femslash authorship is mostly female. The television show ''The L Word'' set up a contest at the website FanLib.com where fans could submit a femme slash fanfic. The winner's story was incorporated into a scene of a third season episode.〔Hibberd, James (December 5, 2005), "Lights! Camera! 'L Word' Action!". ''Television Week''. 24 (49):4〕〔(December 5, 2005), "At Deadline".''MediaWeek''. 15 (44):3〕 In more recent TV series', such as ''Rizzoli and Isles'', ''Warehouse 13'', ''Orange Is the New Black'' and ''Once Upon a Time'', the slash-shipping portions of the fandoms are the most significant, particularly in online forums. ==See also== * Fan fiction * Lesbian fiction * Lesbian science fiction * Lesbianism in erotica * Slash fiction * Xena: Warrior Princess in popular culture * Yuri (genre) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Femslash」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
