Oooh, I am super excited that this fest is happening!

I am wondering if you would be willing to reconsider one of your criteria for what qualifies as femslash, specifically this one: You may also request fic about genderqueer and gender-questioning characters with female anatomy, such as Franky from Skins UK.

I'd like us to be able to request fic about genderqueer and gender-questioning characters regardless of their current body configuration or assigned gender.

Two reasons for this. The self-serving reason is that I'd really like to request fic about what I consider my favorite femslash pairing from the show Huge: Becca, who is a cis teen girl, and Alistair-Athena, who is assigned-male but gender-questioning, and who, in my headcanon at least, will probably transition sometime in the next five years (the characters in the show are teenagers). The other reason is that, philosophically, I feel really uncomfortable with the idea of drawing a line around which genderqueer characters "count" as women (or women-enough-for-femslash) based on their assigned genders.

Does that make sense? I'm glad to discuss any of this further if that would be helpful.
