The phenomenon of Snape-fans

This morning, as I was driving to the train station, I was listening to an episode of Snapecast. Haven't listened to the last three episodes, and the oldest was from September last year.

Well, I was listening to the opening of episode 29, they were talking about the conventions they had been to that summer. On one of them they had made a new name for the Harry/Draco/Severus ship. It went from Snarky (I think) to Drapery (which I really like, and made me want to read it). Then I thought that, women who like Snape have incredibly dirty minds. It's scary sometimes. I kind of already knew this, but I had never really thought about it as a phenomenon before. It doesn't matter the age, origin, looks, jobs, interests....

I have only read half a Snape-fic before (half because it was suddenly deleted from the site I read it on) that was centered around him, and it was a Snape/Hermione. It was dirty. The opening was so dirty it even shocked me. And I'm not easily shocked.

I had to ask Ann-Marie, my only friend who is a real Snape-fan about why Snape-fans were like this. And this was her simple answer:
"The fantasies. We are a seperate species of very kinky women, and it's in our nature to be drawn to a man like Snape."

It seems like they really are a seperate species. Because I thought I had a dirty mind, but it's nothing compared to Snape-women. The gutter spawned them, and in the gutter they live, and in the gutter they die happily.

Enough of that. So, new blog! Like it? I do! I've been thinking about making a blog on my own from scratch or moving the one I had for some time now. But I've been thinking about my homepage, and it really wasn't any point of having it like it was. So I replaced it with blog from Blogspot, and put up links to A Sinful Fantasy, Sinfu[L]ayouts and my portfolio. And then I made a new link to the fanlistings I'm on. Can't forget them, can we? :)

Some people may miss the pictures on the old Sinful Sanctuary, but I have plans to put them back up. See, one.com has this fantastic feature that lets their users create galleries. It's simple to use, pretty to look at, and free. So I'll use that for galleries from now on. I'll post the link once it's ready, and post in the blog about it.

And Sinfu[L]ayouts will change it's name and become a place where I'll post the layouts that is already there, and I'll put all my photos, banners, wallpapers, avatars and other graphics up there, in one happy place! And I'll try to put my poetry up on A Sinful Fantasy.

Lots to do. Got a web-design job too, and an assignment for school, and I have to finish my portfolio....

But first, I'll see if there's any work to do before I go watch Lost and Ugly Betty!

  2. Well hello!
    Thanks! Not my doing though, this site. All I did was make the banner, change the width of the page and the color of the links. But I could make something like this if I wanted to:)

    Thanks for the warning, I'll make sure to stay clear of the dark man in stripes;)
