So I recently saw a bandom secret thing or whatever about people losing respect for anyone with a scene queen icon or layout. Which made me angry! And also sad. And made me want to talk about why I love Audrey Kitching. And made me want to address a few other things I've seen.

This is probably going to be really disjointed! Here is an outline of what I'm going to be talking about today (because I'm a big dork and also it might help you decide whether you're going to read it or not.)

-What I Mean When I Say I Love Scene Queens (And Bandom People In General)
-Why I'm Not Saying You're A Bad Feminist If You Don't Love Them
-Why I Think You Kind of Suck If You Think Being a Groupie Makes You A Bad Person

( *takes a deep breath* )

That was basically just an unfocused rant, and while there's always more I'm willing to say about these girls, this is where I'm going to leave it. I know I don't ever get my point across the way I want to, but basically what I'm saying is: this is why I'm able to love scene queens, and while I never need for anyone on my flist to feel the same way, I kind of ridiculously want everyone to remember that these girls are just people. Just like anyone else. And I always want to try to make people examine their opinions and think about what they're saying or why they think a certain way. That's nice too!

And going back to the thing that started all of this, I really really hope that everyone on my friends list doesn't lose respect for me because of the way I feel about scene queens. That would make me the saddest Shay ever.

So I have my poll! I'd love you guys forever if you fill it out. It's a bunch of bandslash and bandslash related albums that I love in some way or another, and I just want to know what you guys think about them. It's....kind of ridiculous! And in no way a complete list! Here you go!

( This is the poll that gets on everybody's nerves, everybody's nerves, everybody's nerves.... )

Thanks guys!
