Stats #3

Last one, I swear!

I was interested in the percentages, so had a look at the figures of requested vs written pairings. (The figures are rounded to the nearest percentage point, so they don't add to exactly 100)

Requested

m/m slash: 48%
het: 36%
f/f slash: 12%
threesome: 5%

Written

m/m slash: 49%
het: 34%
f/f slash: 13%
threesome: 4%

Just thought it was interesting how well they matched up...

You remind me so much of someone I went to college with. We were drinking beer one afternoon, and one of us was idly spinning a bottlecap, and Stirling looked down and said, "Hey - I bet I can write an equation that will explain why the bottlecap spins like that."

::blink::

I was an English major. Numbers frighten me. Gimme words anyday. ;)

Wow. M/M slash is the buffyverse trend of the moment.

This fascinates me as someone in the publishing industy ... are we missing out on a potential trend in women's fiction?
