Glossary of BXG Terms

Since the lists I often refer people to aren’t comprehensive and don’t appear to be updated regularly I figured I’d make my own. I’ll be adding to this and expanding it as new terms and acronyms come up so feel free to refer back to this post if you come across something you don’t understand.

If you find any errors or omissions, please let me know.

Hi 🌈天 it's been a while,

Happy Pride! Hope summer is going well for you

This is a silly little somewhat late & OT ask, but did you watch White Lotus? Because every time our boys come out with amazing content (Eurotrip! Chanel Cruise! everything!) this is what I think:

XDDDDDDDDDDDDD

anyway wishing you an amazing summer! [I'll be heading to Toronto this year so I'll be closer to your latitude \o/ 🍁]

Hi lonevulf! Happy Pride! 🌈

I have watched White Lotus, and it's such a great show, especially this latest season. You're totally cracking me up with that image. 😅😅😅

I hope that you have an amazing summer as well, and enjoy yourself in Toronto (to the best of your ability considering how inferior it is to the West Coast). 🤭

Even if you didn't have suspicions of them being in a relationship BEFORE filming CQL, which ONE SINGLE interaction between them during the BTS was your "A-ha!" moment that made you go "Those two are obviously dating, your honor."

My turtle journey didn't really go that way. You can read about it here.

Fake, fan fiction, CPN.

But I think the most telling thing is their constant sharing of phones (I've been married for years and we don't share phones), drinking out of the same bottles, sharing nasal spray, etc. They have the casual intimacy of two people who are more than just friends.

Not gonna lie I don't understand people that act like rpf smut is weirder than fanfic smut. Am I just missing something? I could've sworn a lot of society considers it way more normal to fantasize about real people than fictional characters. I don't even like rpf myself, I just figured I was the freak for caring more about animated characters banging instead lol. But now I keep seeing posts with loads of comments saying it's weird to think sexually about a real person and idk if they've been online too long or if I'm just not getting it cause I'm too aroace and have never been attracted to a real person anyway, so I'm just not understanding how it works or something?

RPF (real person fiction) and RPS (real person shipping) have a long history of being looked down on by fandom. There are a few reasons for that that I've seen:

Personalizing the experience. By that I mean, "if I imagine myself as one of the people being written about, how would I feel?"

Feeling protective of the real people being written about. "Those are my faves! Don't make them feel uncomfortable!"

Misunderstanding the fictional aspect of RPF/RPS. It's not just the stories that are fiction. The people are too. They are based on real human beings, but the ones acting in the story just have their name and face and some of the same biographical details. Beyond that, fic authors are making it all up.

I think part of the reason why we're hearing more and more people very loudly proclaiming that RPF is bad and wrong and weird (more so than in the past) is just because there are more people in fandom now and fandom itself is more accessible to new folks. A lot of people are experiencing their first fandom based on kpop bands or youtube and twitch stars - all of whom are real people - and so they are jumping into a new culture without knowing the rules and expectations. Add in the fact that fandom itself has a sometimes-fraught relationship with RPF, as well as the fact that new fans probably outnumber existing ones 2:1 or more in some of these fandoms and it's no wonder that new fans aren't learning the ropes.

I used to be uncomfortable with RPF myself because it felt like gossip or baseless conclusions instead of what it is: messing around with canon just like the rest of fandom does.

I hope this helps! And of course, if I've gotten anything wrong or you have thoughts of your own, feel free to add on in the notes.

[ao3commentoftheday]

One more addition: people also worry about how the people themselves will react to RPF or RPS and that's valid. But one of the core tenets of RPF fandom is never ever ever show the fic to the people it's about.

The stories existing is one thing. Shoving it at the people is something else entirely and completely inappropriate. So is talking to those people about whether or not fictional stories are true.
