I'm just gonna say it...

And probably get defriended, but it doesn't matter, since it seems like everyone's leaving for DW anyway.

It seems to me like the photo ops from earlier cons had more stringent rules about what was and was not inappropriate contact. It's only been the last few cons where the poses and interaction have been getting really snuggly and somewhat more intimate.

I think it's great that the guys, and Jensen in particular are more comfortable with fans now and that they're willing to be hugged and snuggled up with, and I get that people pay for the photo tickets and want the same experience other fans have had.

But seriously, no one is entitled to get to touch the guests. You get a picture. And if there's one thing I've had beaten into my head from years and years of working in manufacturing, it's that nothing bad ever happens when you're wary and cautious. It's when you start to get comfortable and let down your guard that something happens. Best case scenario, someone gets their feel on, worst case... well, I don't even want to say. If you don't want people to build a bomb, you don't put the instructions on the internetz, yes?

I don't blame her at all, and I don't think for a minute that she did what she did because she hates his fans.

And that's all I'm going to say. Keep the wank to a dull roar and out of my space.

P.S.: If you don't know what I'm talking about, don't ask.

Totally! I mean even if she did want them to not touch Jensen she prob has her reason but of course there are many stories of what happened, and what makes me mad is yes I know you are excited bout seeing them but me speaking from experience I was totally out of it when I saw Jensen but yet I didn't grope him or anything what people need to realize is they are still humans and as any human being some may not want to be touched in odd area's, or even be touched by that matter, I just don't get people and I'm saying this goes for all fans of different celebrities.

Thanks! *hugs* Aw it's okay! I try to post bout SPN but it would b the same as 2532424 other people post lol!! :o

Oh, I know. I'm so not into hugs. I mean, I'll hug someone if they expect it, because people think you're a weirdo for not liking hugs, but I'm more likely to say... "uh, private property, k?" if someone I don't know (or even someone I do know) touches me without good reason. The boys must have pretty tough skins to do what they do, but that doesn't mean it doesnt get to be too much sometimes.

Yeah, I don't post much about SPN either. I mostly just comment on other people's posts unless something really irks me and hasn't been said.

Same here it's all good, we're talking now :) I try to reply to all my friend's list but sometimes I don't cuz I'm not sure what to say lol!! :o

Yeah, that's the bad thing about my my journal and other people's journals being primarily fandom oriented. I only have the one fandom, and most people have a lot, and so I often just don't have anything to say.

Any anyone who gangs up on you has to go through me! LOL.

Aww yeah! I try to involve a lot but it never works

I mean I was like "they could of said no, I don't feel comfortable" that's why I def made sure it was okay for Jensen, but seriously people need to CHILL! ;)
