     I sat down today and began to compose my first proper smutfic. I had Mulder & Scully in their office, built up the tension, heated the dialogue and even got as far as a fervent undressing and naked clench on his desk.

     I haven't really ventured outside Philedom, but I did check out a male written "smutfic" once because I was curious how guys would write "smut." I was disappointed. No insights into the male psyche there. ;)

     A lot of the smutfics I've read lately (not on this list) are rushed, ill-conceived, or boring/uninspiring to read. They're such chores to read and a smutfic should *never* be a chore.

2. (uncountable, fandom slang) Such fan fiction collectively.

     So, don't fret. There is always subtext to be found if you believe there is.And, if you get tired of just imagining it, read some smutfic. I bet you'll find some tasty pairings there.

     Oh, thanks. Now I have to go take a cold shower. Or at least write some Xander smutfic.

   • 2002 February 5, Aubrey, “Re: there aren't enough posts poll”, in alt.music.placebo, Usenet:

     Yes, when it is NC-17 smutfic involving Mulder and Scully... and practically every other member of the cast.
