Well, sex and betas are very meaningful aspects in a fanfic writer's life, aren't they? ;) So I don't blame you a bit!
I guess most guys are not the squeeing type when it comes to fanfic - my husband's the same as yours, anyway. :) He can read and enjoy the stories, but he usually doesn't comment much except for a brief "scene X is fun" or "oh, this is a sad ending." Not exactly "scene Y ripped my heart out", either. *g* But to be fair, I don't think I could bear to have him beta a fic of mine. Not because I'm afraid of what he'd say, but because writing is a very private thing to me, and for some reason, the closer someone is to me, the harder I find it to receive critique from them. If that makes any sense. *blinks* And I think it's a wonderful thing that you did manage to find a way to let your husband beta that the both of you feel comfortable with.
