SW: "Slash" fiction is surely the opposite extreme from the logical alien.

SD: Yes -- Kirk-slash-Spock fiction, written by fans of Star Trek, is usually gay pornography in which Kirk and Spock and other members of the Enterprise crew get it on.

but no. that's the entire point. slash is not the 'opposite extreme' for spock. being logical and being sexual are not mutually exclusive; and spock, while he presents himself without emotion, is canonically not really free of it. that's the whole POINT. auurgh.
