Chatter post

For all your discussion needs.

Ground rules:
- Try to keep it loosely trash party related, or at least Cap fandom related.
- Disagreement is fine, nastiness is not.
- Being offended is not carte blanche for nastiness.
- Trashmeme ground rules apply. Read at your own risk, no romanticizing your noncon garbage, no wank about the moral acceptability of noncon kink.
- Body shots, sniper shots, and tetanus shots are all available at the open bar. Party like it's 2014, kids.

About the queer history. I'm working on a fill – burnable trash rather than the stuff you have to take to the dump – where Steve and Bucky were an item before the war, but managed to convince themselves it wasn't serious because they both switched in bed, the logic being that if they were really queer they would be in fixed top/bottom roles. I'm not sure how explicit the narrator will be about this, but as the author, yeah, this scenario involved some pretty deep denial and willful obtuseness. Is this... a reasonably accurate portrait of the popular image of queerness at the time? I'm trying to get a scenario where they knew it was an option, but were convinced/managed to convince themselves it just wasn't them, plus the difference between switching and fixed roles is relevant to the prompt.
