The single most surprising thing about UFO fandom for me, when I first
encountered it in the '90s, was that there is a substantial interest
among a certain group of female fans, in fan-written erotic fiction,
in which the principal male characters with whom we're familiar are
portrayed in remarkably sexually explicit homosexual encounters.

But I don't think there's anything wrong with that provided that it's
not confused with the canon. It's harmless, in my view. UFO itself is
obviously already removed from reality, and a fan-fiction is in a
sense another step removed from it; a meta-fantasy, if you will.
