| Summary: | Harry Potter falling in love with Draco Malfoy?! The notion may seem appalling to most, but all over the world thousands of fangirls are going ga-ga over the very idea. Welcome to the world of Slash fiction, where fans of not just Harry Potter, but virtually anything, from novels to celebrities, write their own stories about their favourite male characters being involved in a homosexual, romantic relationship. This radio documentary delves into issues such as the motivation and inspiration of the Slash fangirls, how women from different countries have their own takes on the theme of fan-created male-male romance, and how the rise of the internet has irrevocably shaped fan culture. |
