How do we convince more femslashers to break free from canon?
you know, this has never actually been my problem as a femslash fan. i often tend to prefer non-canon pairings whether het, femslash or boyslash to canon ones. I think that this is actually a part of the problem? I know an awful lot of shippers who canon or at the very least, a very, very well-developed fanon (I'm looking at you, temporarily huge movie ships) to get invested and that's just the way some people do fandom. I was never in the Buffy fandom so I don't know how it compares to the rest for f/f content, but so many people just aren't all that interested in the blank spaces the way most femslashers are.
