Forked Thread: What is the difference between New Fantasy and Old Fantasy?

[Corjay]

Ummm. That's not fantasy. That's just erotic fiction.

Minds out of the gutter, and focus.

Aren't you the one who was going with a really broad definition of fantasy? Who are you to judge my story about my wild night with the Dallas Cowboy Cheerleaders?

Uhhh. Okaaayyy.

Not sure where you came up with that one. Does anyone know what he's talking about, or what he's trying to say? "I'd swear he's not speaking real English."

Corjay - what he's saying is that if you can include Romance literature, myth and legend into Fantasy as a genre, then how can you exclude Letter's to Penthouse?

Actually, I was just making a joke.

It's completely fantasy that I'd spend a night with the entire Dallas Cowboys Cheerleader team. Although don't think that they don't keep asking me anyway!

Hobo's joke aside (which does, by the way, highlight that I somehow made a "broad definition of fantasy"), I never included romance literature. That said, please, just keep it on the subject at hand, which is currently focused on late fantasy. Thanks.
