Actually, all I was trying to say was that "conditions in post-Katrina Louisiana were bad and serious and unjust, and it would be shitty to write happy porn fic in that area." I used it because the Attawapiskat people were also moved after a natural disaster, and because that population is also majority women, and majority First Nations - not white. And that this is the association I have with "shacks" in Canada, and with the areas in which these fics are set.

You're right. On the level that I was using it above, I don't see how the comparison is completely revolting. I was saying that it is uncool to use either for porn. I was saying it is uncool to fetishize either or use it for a backdrop for your light-hearted fiction. That is all I've been saying.

I am genuinely sorry that I have upset you this much, and that in my own anger my entry here was what it was.
