What fandom says it wants vs. what fandom actually wants

[transemacabre]

What people in fandom say they want to read:
-- IC, slow burn, realistic romance with world-building and canon details, totaling many thousands of words
-- Female and non-white main characters
-- Femslash

What people in fandom ACTUALLY want to read, judging by hits and comments:
-- Any Two Guys/whitecock explicit PWP under 1k
-- AUs set in bakeries/coffee shops with fantastical canon elements replaced by the mundane
-- Not femslash

The sheer onslaught of images overwhelms me on Tumblr. Glad fanartists get some attention, though! *high five*
