ellenkushnerSFSignal's MindMeld invited a bunch of authors to address the question:
Once upon a time, sf/f was full of taboos: no swearing, no sex, etc. We're thankfully past those days, but are there any taboos still remaining or new ones that have sprung up? Have you ever had trouble with publishing something, or caught yourself self-censoring?
My answer is somewhat lame, but it's there for all to see & respond to, along with those of Margo Lanagan, Hal Duncan, Kristine Kathryn Rusch, and other notables.
