McCall's "Immolation," has a lot of violence. Although there is no explicit description, Avon's sexual involvement with an OFC and with Soolin are plot points. I think that a story with a similar violence level and that is no more explicit than "Tarrant took Avon in his arms, happy to assuage their loneliness" has equal claims to be considered gen.<
That depends how you define slash. I thought the word was used to describe all stories that depict some of the main characters as homosexual or lesbian, whether those stories contain explicit sex or not.
(I may be wrong of course. In my innocence I also thought that a submission to someone asking for them can hardly be called unsolicited, but I seem to have got that wrong :-) )
Seriously, is there a standard definition of slash?
