#EngenderedWriting 09 — Is there a place for gender slurs in gender fiction? (E.g., Slut, bitch, etc.) Defend your opinion.
No.As writers, we don't have to present the world as it is and we have readers who deal with slurs in meat space. We don't need to trod upon them in our fiction, not even to show villainy. We're authors, we can imagine new ways and awful ways to show villainy that doesn't punch down.
There are stories that do it well but that's the difficult part
