The term slash refers to stories in which a gay relationship between two characters is portrayed, whether the sexual part of the relationship is explicitly described or not. Slash generally refers to male character; female characters together is usually called [[Fem Slash]].
Possibly due to its emphasis in canon on emotions and relationships, Supernatural became one of the major slash fandoms from 2006 onwards. It also has a very high proportion of [[Gen]] fic, although much less [[Het]]. [[Fem Slash fiction can cover any ]] is very rare. [[Image:Category:Fic GenresMetafic1.png|genreleft]] Based on an analysis of fiction. There slash relationship may not be over 35,000 stories fanfiction listed in the focus of the story[[spnnewsletter|LJ Supernatural newsletter]], in fact because approximately 58% of the intense relationship Supernatural fan fiction is Slash. Pairings between characters like Sam and Dean on the show, these make up 36% and [[RPF]] pairings 21% of stories may be indistinguishable from written.  [[{GenImage:Metafic3.png|left]] For ficwritten up to late 2007, over 90% of slash was [[Wincest]]. By August 2009, this had dropped to 82%. In other cases the story may be all about the relationship. Some stories may contain no sexseven month snapshot shown above, or may have allusions to it, others are purely porn and are known as Wincest made up around 46% of fic with [[PWPDean/Castiel]]s or porn without plotsstories now comprising 47% . The remaining 7% was other slash pairings.
Based on an analysis While proportions of nearly 30,000 stories fanfiction listed in the [[spnnewsletter|LJ Supernatural newsletter]]genres have shifted, approximately 39% absolute numbers of Supernatural fan fiction is Wincest. The [[RPF]] pairing of Jared/Jensen is second in fics have increased as well – the growing popularity.

As the line graph above shows, the rate at which Wincest and Gen fics are written remains steady. The snapshot period here had nearly 30% more fic being written per month than in early 2008.
Occasionally one or both of the brothers will be slashed with minor and/or recurring male characters; original male characters or characters from other fandoms, including characters that have been portrayed by either [[Jensen Ackles]] or [[Jared Padalecki]] in another tv-series or movie (e.g., Sam/Jake from Devour, Sam/Alec from Dark Angel, Dean/Dean from Gilmore Girls). (See also: [[Crossover]]).
Although the pairing had been utilized from the beginning, after the airing of [[1.22 Devil's Trap]] on May 4th 2006 significantly more [[John/Dean]] fanworks appeared (possibly due to the chemistry between Dean and the possessed John). [[John/Sam]] is rarer. Both pairings often explore issues of authority and consent.
