I want to know about it

 

I think its strange,really strange,but im also curious..

 

never read one,just curious....and weird out at same time

[denajeanx]

I agree to a point, but I was not really talking about sexuality as much as I was identity. Who I am, and were I find comfort.  Who Matt is, and yes his sexuality is not the only aspect of him that I love, but it is a part of him that makes the whole. Maybe I'm wrong in thinking that, but I honestly believe that he does enjoy the fact that I embrace a part of him that others do not. Is the reverse also not true?   Some of the fun moments and memories we share are based of his sexuality. I'm not gonna just dismiss those, I embrace them as cherished memories.  If he lets me I'll tell you a story, let me see if he is on FB.......... I looked he isn't on, but I will edit if he doesn't mind later.

 

OK I talked to him, He don't care! 

 

Matt, can I tell someone the story of the hypnotist.

 

its to funny!!

 

I remember they were a va**na, but what were you?

 

 

about an hour ago

Sure. We had to pretend we were going down on a va**na

 

Me and Matt went to an adult hypnotist show, and he would call people from the audience. Anyway, He called Matt and this other person up, and hypnotized them so Matt would see the other person as a vajayjay. Matt said eeewww and started running away from this other person who was chasing him around the stage ,It was hysterical!!   Its also a memory

I have no idea what you are talking about, but alright.

Don't forget, you asked what we think so here's what I think.

I think people need to leave them alone and out of fanfic. As a Shamy shipper, I loathe Shenny fics of all kinds but i'd much rather read one than a Majim fanfic because Shamy AND Shenny are FICTIONAL people. It's wrong to write about real people.

And it's actually not allowed. Those kinds of stories get reported.

What I think is that there's no such think as good Real People Fic. That would be like me making up stories about you and your friends and family and putting words in your mouth and making up motivations and thoughts that you don't intend.

There are people in IG who make up "Jodd" fics and I guess they think it's okay because Jim and Todd are actually a couple, but even in that circumstance it's rude and inconsiderate and disrespectful.

There's no point in reading MaJim fic, no matter what your intention, and I insincerely hope that no one would recommend any such stories. Sorry.

I also think it's wrong to think that Jim and Mayim have anything other than the close friendship they have said they have. Jim has a boyfriend of some 12 years and I don't think he's going to be "tempted" away from him just because he and Mayim play a fictional couple on TV. I think it's good that Jim and Mayim are so comfortable with each other. It would be kind of horrible if Jim were paired with a actress who didn't like him.

And I think that Mayim probably thinks he's cute the same way we do.

I think that we find people physically and personally attractive no matter what their gender preference may be.

[Andy_90's_generation]

For some reason, I don't feel grossed out, knowing there are MaJim (or Jim-Kaley/Todd/whatever) fanfics, hell, the TBBT fandom is one of the most laid back and tranquil you will find out there, if some ppl like to create this stories is their responsibility, I don't know. What I do know is that I wouldn't read them, I don't ship them in that way, so for me is like reading a book of a theme I don't care about 

I like Jim and Todd together, I love that they have been together for more than a decade, that is such a big accomplishment, and I do hope, sincerely, this couple lasts many decades more. I think is something to admire and imitate the capacity to be really in love for so many years. It's obvious when you look at them, it just shines through. I also wish for Mayim to find someone, I know, each to their own pace when it comes to relationships, but I just think she's young, she's gorgeous and has so many things to take care of in her life, being in love again would be like a balm of tranquility, IMO. I find Jim and Mayim friendship such a blessing, is so difficult to create deep friendships when you are an adult, and when it happens is wonderful, plus, this helps to make Shamy much more special, I have known Mayim as Amy, and now I know it does not exist another actress that could have played her better. And that is what I think of this three topics

[Shamyyy^-^]

Some fans have need to believe that Jim and Mayim are also in love in the life, every selfie, every interview, every look for them is a proof of a repressed feeling.. but then why? If they are in love, what does prevent them to be together after 5 years? they are not married and I am sure that Todd doesn't tie Jim with the chains, anybody can force to be you with a person that doesn't love.

For me the reality is very simpler a splendid relationship between two men and a beautiful friendship among two colleagues.

 

(Fanfics on the real people to me is... shocking)

Well Kate miccui who played Lucy auditioned for the role of Amy and I'm glad she didn't get it, the chemistry between Jim and Mayim is fantastic for shamy scenes

[Sheldonswife]

Jim would look like a complete giant standing next to Kate....lol

[phantagrae]

After seeing Kate M as Lucy, I can't imagine how she would have played Amy.  She seems too fragile or frail to play someone as "strong" as Amy--strong personality, strong presence.

I think whoever was going to play Amy would have to be able to sort of stand up to not only Sheldon, but the whole gang.  I know Kate was only playing the role of Lucy as written, but she just strikes me as too delicate or something to have been the woman Sheldon first meets in that coffee shop who tells him that coitus is off the table.

 

Everything after that first scene is different because it would have been written to Mayim's strengths and her voice, etc., I think, but I think that that first scene was very telling in what kind of person Amy could be and I don't think that KM would have worked out.

 

Casting is so important in cases like this and I think they really hit the jackpot on TBBT with all of the current characters.

 

ETA: I have a totally unrelated question--was Sheldon wearing his beige windbreaker when he went away on his train journey?  Does that mean that we'll never see the beige jacket again?  I love him in the darker jacket that he wore on the double date, but for a minute there I thought that that was the one he was wearing when he left.

And does that also mean we'll never see that particular t-shirt (I think it was one of his test-pattern shirts) or his old shoes (those fugly ones I hate)?

 

Wow...

@Phanta regarding the jacket. Sheldon wore the navy/tan jacket in the finale and got one just like it except instead of blue on top half and tan on bottom half, the new jacket is reversed....tan half on top and navy on bottom.

OIC! So I'm not crazy for remembering him in the darker jacket in the finale! But it's funny that they got a reversed jacket, i do love the darker colors on him, though.

I'm still waiting to see what sort of laptop he'll end up with.

I agree that its strange real people fanfic,but im a curious person,just wanted to know what it looks like,

 

"It's wrong to write about real people."

 

That are a lot of movies and books that are based on real people's life,that also do that,and sometimes are not 100% trustworthy.

 Fanfiction with carachters based on real people,are just another story...but if it gets disrespectful,I think its tidiculous and need to be reported.Thats why I want to read,thats why I want to know what are they like...

First off, maybe it's just my iPad, but that font is really hard to read...

Anyway, the difference between movies and books based on real people and RPF is that usually in the case of such books and movies, they are dramatizing something that happened some time ago and simply rounding out certain moments, etc. and they're usually written around historical events or maybe something like true crime, or true inspiring stories, etc.

I think RPF is different. Maybe it's too close to current life or because it's about people we kind of know (as much as one can know a celebrity), but it seems wrong, IMO.

It would be as if I started making up stories about my boss and her husband, or people I know from church, or you started making up stories about you neighbors.

That's very different from telling the story of Abraham Lincoln and making up some dialog between him and his wife.

[Susana Alcira]

Amy is AMY because of Mayim Bialik.

and Sheldon is SHELDON because of Jim Parsons

I can´t imagine their characters without them!

Amy wouldn´t survive with another actress,......     and we wouldn´t have SHAMY!

I SEE YOUR POINT!

 

But I do not think the world is so bipolar/nlack and white.

 

IM NOT PRO REAL PEOPLE FANFIC,I DID EVEN KNOW THEY EXIST UNTIL A FEW DAYS AGO.BUT I THINK THEY ARE NOT NECESSARY A PROBLEM,IF IT IS FICTION,

 

FOR ME ,offensive are those news and megazines that only focus on gossip , lies,and warp people's words and phrases 

 

HOW ABOUT not allowed biographies????OR movies that provide a bad image about someone???

 

Sometimes,even when it is a good image can be ofensive for some people,see what happended with the movie "Che"(one example)

 

 

what is offensive for one person maybe not be so ofensive to other person,

 

I think if i would read real people fanfic i would consider what it is FICTION, not a report,or an attempt to report real life.I do not see that way....

 

Also there are draws,parody,and cartoons that have real people represented on it.(Simpsons,South Park,etc),USING YOUR logic,they shoul also be considered

despicable??

No, RPF is where people are trying to create or live out some fantasy by writing it in a story. They want to have Jim and Mayim fall in love (as themselves, not as Sheldon/Amy) so they make up a a story about it, treating real people like fictional characters with no respect for what they might think of such things. Or they want to imagine Jim and Todd kissing or maybe having sex or whatever, so they write a story about them.

I would find it creepy if someone wrote a story about me. It's one thing to fantasize about such things in the privacy of your own mind, if you're into such things, but it's something else entirely to write it down and put it on the internet for the whole world to see and pass around.

Historical dramas (usually about dead people and historic figures) and parody are different. People know that something like the Simpsons or South Park are going to parody well-known figures, but most of the time it's either with that person's permission, or it's based on something like a known news story or whatever.

RPF takes people's very private lives and makes up stuff about them that they have no right to mess with. If I know that you're married, but I fantasize about you having a relationship with your hot neighbor, am I allowed to write a story about you cheating on your husband just to fulfill my fantasy of you and your neighbor having hot sex on your kitchen table? I can turn you into whatever kind of person I want and put all kinds of words in your mouth or give you all kinds of motives just to entertain myself. Then I can post it on the internet for other people to fantasize about. Would that sort of thing be okay with you?

I think that with people in Jim and Todd or Mayim's position, it's disrespectful to cross that line of intellectual privacy.

Certain aspects of their lives are just not in the public domain, IMO.

I see your point...as I sad,I have open mind because i don t have an opinion yet........

 

I think they do not give a **** about internet people/haters AND fanfic writers....

 

 

"People know that something like the Simpsons or South Park are going to parody"

 

Some fanfictions ,even  with not real people,are so ridicolous that sounds like parody as well...

 

I do not think anyone who writes it want their story to be taken serious (real people or not)

 

Im not famous,I don t know what I would think...it difficult to guess what or how a public person would feel if you are not on their shoes...

 

 its creepy and strange,but people who whrite real pepole fanfics are not less creepy and strange than some journalists and gossip sites,that sometimes seems to also have strong imagination to make up stories and lines that have neve been said ...

[Deb Ranquist]

You reminded me of Matt buying me my first makeup. We went to the same church youth group, and we rigged it! We showed each other are packages and then when they would put under the church tree both made a dash for those. He talk to my mother to make sure I would be allowed to wear certain shades.. He's the best!  If you wondering he wanted a huge poster of alyssa milano 

That is so sweet!  it sounds like your friend Matt is really a great bestie, and sounds like you have so many wonderful memories with him!  You are so lucky and fortunate to have him in your life.  I miss my besties on the West Coast and the ones that passed away too young.  Thank you for sharing your fun stories of your friend Matt.  I have enjoyed reading them very much.  They have made me long for my old friendships and made me look back on my own memories, as well. 

[Deb Ranquist]

When you express so much passion and concern over someone's sexuality, it dimishes them to that: their sexuality. That is not the most relevant thing about someone. I believe Jim has said, himself, that his sexuality is not the most important thing about him; a nice way of saying shut up and move on.

Everyone is so obsessed with labels. How about we are all humans that love who we love? I know, that's so complicated!

I do agree that wanting to find a "gay bestie" is offensive. Again, diminishing someone to their sexuality. That would be like me saying "I want to find a straight bestie". How ridiculous does that sound?

You know what my gay friends said to me when I was moving back to the East Coast?  “How can you stand to return to the land of all those close minded, homophobic bigots?”  I can't say that just my friends said that, because not all my friends did; only my gay friends did.  I have heard Jim Parsons refer to himself as a gay man on more than one occasion when making a point on one subject or another, because it a part of what shapes who he is.  It is not everything, true enough, but it is a large part.  There are whole organizations that put labels on people and in the very name of the organization.  Think GLSEN as an example.  Are people offended by those, as well?  If I hadn’t mentioned my “gay friends” in the first sentence of this paragraph, would the reference have even made sense?  In certain situations, there is nothing wrong with putting labels on people.  It’s no different than saying, “My married friends said this…”  “My single girlfriends said this…”  Those are considered labels as well, right, yet, we all use them.  By the way, I consider myself a single, 50-year-old woman.  There’s three labels right there.  I don't have a problem with it.  

[kerrycec03]

Deb, just curious....where on the East Coast did they say its close minded, homophobic bigots?  I know the term "East Coast" is broad but as somebody in the northeast who has friends of all different lifestyles, I've actually never heard this comment about my home, my region from anybody....

Didn't mean to come off ichy. ..

 

Of course they can! I just think me being pansexual, Its more comfortable to me personally.  Which is how I should have worded that.  I am inclined to be attracted to male and androgynous gender people. Cis gendered males, transgendere females, gay males, genderqueer, and androgynous gender. With that said, I am in a relationship with a women. For me personally I find it more difficult to develop a friendship with cis gendered males as I'm not sure about feelings... There is something possibly underlining there, that I am not comfortable with.  It just me. I am usually more attracted to ppl sexual or not, that do not fit in the classic boy/girl gender.  Its the same with cis gender females

It’s been my experience that single, straight men seldom know how to speak to a single woman or really show an interest in her outside of wanting to get into her pants.  That’s not to say that there aren’t some decent straight men out there.  I even wrote an entire fictional book about a wonderful straight man, who I still hope to meet one day, if he exists in this world.   I have been close to a few straight men, mostly men with whom I worked alongside and with whom I stayed in touch after we no longer worked together, but they have been infuriating, difficult, and even antagonistic at times; I don’t recall having those same experiences with my gay male friends, but perhaps too much time and distance has clouded my memories.  I did lose a close, straight male friend in May, who killed himself, and that experience was every bit as painful to me as the deaths of two close, gay male friends.

 

On a side note, so as not to offend anyone on here, as labels do seem to make people uneasy, I don’t go around introducing my friends with the preface or label of gay or straight before the word friend, but for the purpose of writing this reply, it has been necessary to do so.

I hear what you're saying, Kerrycec; they were talking about New England, which is where I live and returned to after living in SF for many years.  Certainly, they would never have said that about NYC or any cosmopolitan city such as that on the East Coast.  Consider that this was back in the 90's, also, so we're talking just about twenty years ago.  Certainly, attitudes have changed even more so in the time frame since then.  I only made that statement for the point of saying that sometimes we all use labels and sometimes, it is unavoidable.  Sorry to add these thoughts almost two days past the original topic on here.  I'm just trying to play catch-up.

I don't usually either, But it was needed to explain my feelings on Mayim's bed selfie... and then the discussion steam rolled out of control from there. Though as I said due to our closeness, I usually do have to explain it to ppl I'm having a relationship with..
