Haaaahahaha HP fandom why are you always so insane yet awesome. XD 2/3 HxD to 1/3 DxH sounds about right to me. Neu!K/S is even more skewed, and I don't think it's all founder effect.
(Actually, it reminded me of blurslash where Damon is uke a good 80% of the time at least - not just GxD, across the board. At first I was like IN WHAT UNIVERSE PEOPLE. Lived to tell the tale, though. XD;)
H/D as hybrid is sort of what I am talking about, actually: HP cut across so many demographics that the tropes and conventions got mixed up. LIKE ALEXANDER'S CONQUESTS. As a whole, Wmedia slash pre-HP reads differently from Wmedia slash post-HP, and I would argue it and Wyaoi fic (which has also changed) have shifted closer. Heck, actual Japanese BL manga has gotten closer to slash, or at least has broadened to the same effect. I can't think of a way to analyze this that wouldn't muddle causality, though.
