What's Up With This Place?
HoYay? What The Hell Is That??
Alex & Olivia? Yes!
Alex and Olivia!! The site is dedicated to the
wonderfully
written subtext that occurs between the two greatest leading ladies to
ever grace a Law & Order
Series: Alex Cabot and Olivia Benson. Now, don't go getting
all
pissy at me. I know there are plenty of Olivia/Elliot and
Olivia/Casey shippers out there
who are probably shaking their heads and saying "Nope! Never
happen!" but you know what? That is the beauty of Subtext!
We all get to see what we want
to see and
interpret it in our own way. What I see is Alex and Olivia.
The
long looks and the zero personal space... Hey, if
this doesn't rock your sox then there is a big wide world out there
just a Google away! I won't mess with your fantasy...
don't
mess with mine!
HoYay? WTF?
Are you speaking english?
HoYay
stands for Homoeroticism Yay! and is defined as follows:
1.) Homoerotic subtext in film, books or
movies. Usually
followed
by a feeling of glee in the viewer. Can also
relate to
homoerotic films in general.
2.) The word used to describe a homoerotic
or homoromantic subtext
between two characters, generally on a television show. Where
one
sees HoYay is, of course,
extremely subjective,
though in some cases it can be canon, not just subtext, as in the
episode of 'Angel' wherein Spike says "Angel and I
were never intimate... apart from that one time." Why am I just hearing about
this now?? Well,
that I couldn't tell you. Subtext has been alive and well
for
decades. And HoYay, while the definition may have just
recently
been phrased, has
existed right
along with it! From Star Trek (Ahem...Janeway/Seven), to
Xena: Warrior Princess,
Buffy
the Vampire Slayer and everything in between. Check the net
for
SLASH fiction. It is out there
in outrageous
amounts, both male/male and female/female. (Of course, here
at
the ADA's Office, we only have the femslash kind!)
Can't we get in trouble for
this? Everything
has a gray area! I have found the best way to stay
out
of trouble is to focus on the characters, not the actors. It
is
no wonder so many actors and actresses refuse to play gay
parts, with
how often people blur the lines and identify the real person with the
character they are playing. In any event my feeling is, these
ladies are wonderfully
generous
for giving us as much of themselves as they do. The rest
should
be their own. As such, I will never post actor fiction on
my site.
I am not knocking it or condemning it. (Some of it is quite
good!) It just
doesn't have
a place here. (Actor Fic: Slash fiction written
around the actual actors or actresses
themselves
instead of the characters they play. And yes, this type of
fanfiction does have very real legal ramifications, so be careful!)
