The original vampires were purely savage creatures whose attacks were akin to barbarians raping and murdering civilized folks. Bram Stroke's vampires while more cultured and the sexual elements increased only improved themselves as far as date rape. So sex with vampires being used as deus ex machina has no mythological roots.
For the life of me I can't even think of an example of werecreature sex in fiction at all from before the furry fandom became well known so I really don't see any mythological basis for the werecreatures deus sex machina.
Founded by girl geeks and members of the slash fandom, scans_daily strives to provide an atmosphere which is LGBTQ-friendly, anti-racist, anti-ableist, woman-friendly and otherwise discrimination and harassment free.
Bottom line: If slash, feminism or anti-oppressive practice makes you react negatively, scans_daily is probably not for you.
