Gen Fic, for SCIENCE!

This is something of a follow-up to a conversation in my post about the hypothetical Gen Big Bang, in which I discovered to my shock and dismay that not everyone agrees on what constitutes gen fic!

Thus I am conducting a poll for SCIENCE!

Please spread the word, I am really curious to hear opinions on the subject.

Re: sex or SEX?

I don't understand how anyone could consider one sex scene in a 10 chapter story to be het/slash. If the main focus of the story is gen, then it's gen!

Certainly the story should have a forewarning of the material, but to have to relist is silly.

To me, gen tells me to expect a story, where sex isn't the main course, but I never assume it's not there.

How do you feel on the subject?
