Me as a reader: wow im so glad multiple interpretations exist while i read because what you wrote was so beautiful it made me think about another related issue🥰🥰🥰 Also i dont understand a few lines here and there but thats okay.

Me as a writer: am i saying this right? Is the syntax perfect? I should delete this sentence because it will divert readers from thinking what i want them to think. Does the meaning mean what i mean?!! Or will somebody misconstrue my intended meaning? Wow i hope the humour carries through cuz what did i just write🤧😷

Women can write m/m. Men can write f/f. Asexuals can write filthy smut. Lesbians and gay men can write m/f. It's all arbitrary anyway. Who give a shit.
