If you have a life, you may be unaware that two days ago, the folks at LiveJournal suddenly deleted a bunch of communities and journals that listed interests in things like incest and pedophilia. This was prompted by complaints from a group called "Warriors for Innocence," whose website I'm not going to link to because there have been entirely unconfirmed reports that it tries to put spyware on your computer. See, we love you and your hard drive here at AfterElton.com.

Well, you might ask, ummmm, yeah. What's the problem? Some of the communities that got deleted really were extremely problematic, and while I'm not a lawyer and do not play one in the blogosphere, I'm pretty sure they violated LJ's Terms of Service big time.

The problem, as it turns out, is that a lot of the deleted communities were actually fandom communities that archive homoerotic fanfiction about fictional characters. And some of those characters are, fictionally speaking, brothers, like Faramir and Boromir from Lord of the Rings.
