A story was recently posted named "Switch." I found it to be a well written and imaginative tale, and I gave it a 10 in my review. I also complained a bit, because the author features several well-known celebrities as characters in the story.

I find this objectionable. I think it is an invasion of the named person's rights when someone uses the name they worked so hard to make famous. It is a sort of identity theft.

Where do others stand on this issue? Do you agree that it's wrong to hijack somebody's name? If not, why not? If you do think it's wrong, do you think I should have lowered my rating because of it? I rated it on its writing, and didn't lower it because of the name dropping.

I did that because I always do that. Some other things are a bit of a turn-off for me. I'm not big on snuff, or incest, or watersports either, but I don't think I should low-rate a story just because it features activities that don't happen to fit my personal kinks.

So, am I right, wrong, or boring you? I'd rather be wrong than boring.
