Having stated, when I posted about fandomsecrets, that I don't keep secrets, I feel compelled to make this followup post.

As I continued to go through the community archives and read each day's new post, I noticed that the secrets I enjoyed and remember most aren't the ones about the fandoms I'm in. They're not the ones with opinions I agree with. They're the ones with true sex stories*.

I went on to discover from fandomsecrets's profile page that the "secrets" format comes from the community ljsecret, where I discovered an even higher ratio of sex-related secrets. I lost interest in the fandomsecrets archives, though I still read each new post; and have started going through the ljsecret archive instead and reading new ljsecrets posts as they arrive. And sometimes to entertain myself I draft made up secrets (with no desire to post them).

I think that the reason I draw privately-circulated fanfiction cartoons for grownups is to compensate my id for having had an unadventurous adolescence. My interest in ljsecret appears to be another symptom of the same thing.

In my fandomsecrets post I offered some examples of typical secret types. Here's some paraphrasures from memory of ljsecret and fandomsecrets secrets that stuck in my mind. ( Cut for adult content )

* For a value of "true" equal to "anything on the internet is statistically guaranteed to be partially comprised of trolling".
