Feminism in Treklit (1976 panel discussion)

Feminism in Treklit is a May 1977 written re-cap of an audio-tape of a panel discussion that was originally held at SeKWester*Con in April 1976. 
 
The original panelists were Sharon Ferraro and Jean Lorrah.
The original audio tapes were created by Joan Marie Verba and others. The recap was created by members of the con committee and printed in the program book for 1977's SeKWester*Con, Too.
"Many people recorded last year's SeKWester*Con's panels and allowed us to transcribe from their tapes (thanks, Joan). And especial thanks to Jan Rigby, who, glued to her cassette recorder thru fall and winter, ensured that we'd have no 18-page gap in the program book." 
Emphasis: the original panel discussion was much, much longer and more detailed, and the essay is simply a re-cap.
 
==The Topic==
The topic of the discussion was the characterization of female characters in Star Trek fanfic, Mary Sue, feminism, and differing tastes and expectation of male and female fans. The article mentions many fanfic examples.
==Fics Mentioned or Discussed==
* The Garden Was a Wild
* An Abortive Attempt
* Murder, Rape, and Other Unsocial Acts
* The Daneswoman
* Landing Party 6
* How About a Raffle?
* The Hearing
* Here We Go Again
* The Misfit and While We're Apart, stories in the Showcase series

==Episodes==
==Kickstarter==
In May 2012, Feminist Frequency launched a Kickstarter campaign to fund a project titled Tropes vs. Women in Video Games. Creator Anita Sarkessian explained that "I love playing video games but I’m regularly disappointed in the limited and limiting ways women are represented. This video project will explore, analyze and deconstruct some of the most common tropes and stereotypes of female characters in games. The series will highlight the larger recurring patterns and conventions used within the gaming industry rather than just focusing on the worst offenders."Tropes vs. Women in Video Games Posted May 2012. Accessed February 20, 2016. The initial goal of $6,000 was quickly surpassed and by the end of the campaign, the project had gathered $158,922 in pledges.

Fempreg

Fempreg or fpreg usuallyUsage may vary. For example, see this 2006 Harry Potter masterlist of female pregnancy fic: Normal pregnancy, that is Fpreg refers not to all stories in which women are pregnant, but to stories in which conception is the result of f/f sex between cis women. It is quite rare and would probably not have a name if it were not for mpreg's popularity, but it does show up in most popular femslash fandoms, especially ones for fantasy or science fiction properties. Xena: Warrior Princess has a rare example of canonical fempreg with Callisto's ghost impregnating Xena. 
Another example of canonical fempreg occurs in Kotobuki Tarako's mostly mpreg-filled manga Sex Pistols (published in English language as Love Pistols). Madarame Makio, a female character, has given birth to two sons by two different fathers and has also 'fathered' two more sons with her female partner Tokashiki Karen.
And the final season of Legends of Tomorrow contains an fpreg pregnancy, Sara Lance becomes unexpectedly pregnant with Ava's baby, helped by Sara's alien DNA, at a time when they are planning for Ava to get pregnant by IVF and a donor.
==Fandom==
Some fandoms and characters are more likely than others to include fempreg in their fanworks. Often these fandoms involve source texts that feature sci-fi, fantasy, or science fantasy elements, and many of the former are a result of magical pregnancy. Scientific and technological concepts, for shows such as Doctor Who, can also be incorporated into fpreg fanworks.
Fpreg fics often involve some form of surprise or shock regarding the pregnancy, as many of them have the characters unaware they could actually conceive given the circumstances of the sex.

*Fpreg fanworks on Archive of Our Own
*The Science of Slash episode of Slash Report contains a brief discussion of fpreg.

Femslash100 is a multifandom femslash fan fic drabble community on LiveJournal and Dreamwidth. It runs weekly challenges, ongoing challenges, and drabbletags, and allows posting of fics between 100 and 250 words. It is affiliated with femslash_today and is part of the girlwank family of femslash-focused livejournal communities. Drabbles posted to AO3 can be added to the collection.
==Drabble Lengths==
While participants are allowed to post fics anywhere between 100 and 250 words, the mods acknowledge several specific word count numbers: 100, 111, 123, 150, 200, 222, and 250 words.
==Challenges & Events==

As of 2 August 2014, 418 challenges have been posted.
===Drabble Cycle===
Periodically, the mods solicit suggestions for Drabble Cycle themes. After a theme is voted on by the community, a prompt table is posted and members may claim the table for a fandom or pairing. They are then given a deadline before which they must write drabbles filling the table for that fandom or pairing. Original fiction is allowed for the Drabble Cycles. The most recent completed Drabble Cycle was themed Astrology, with a prompt table of 12 astrological symbols, and it closed on 31 July 2014. The current Drabble Cycle is themed Kinks with three prompt table options: a full table of 30 prompts, a mini table of 10 pre-selected prompts, or a self-selected 10 prompt mini table.
===DrabbleTag===
Periodically, the mods host a drabbletag, which is a threaded prompt free-for-all in which participants write to a prompt and then leave three more prompts for other participants to fill. As of 24 November 2015, DrabbleTag6 is ongoing.

Femslash Migration

Femslash Migration describes a very commom tendancy within sapphic fandom of fans who migrate from show to show, and consequently of ship to ship. 
Essays about this migration were created in order to discuss its existence in the fandom and how it affects fans, whether it hurts them or not: 
But this wave has become so intrinsic to the fandom that some fans have become aware of its existence, even making jokes about it:
This migratory phenomenon also has already been previously observed in a portion of the slash fandom, however fostered and seen differently by its members and peers.
