It's really just another attempt to feminize males, I remember someone on Slashcast citicquing a fic and saying the slash relationship was less about two males and more about two girls with strap-ons. If people want to read a fic with pregnancy as it's theme, there is always het.
But I'm very picky with Slash, I don't think there are many males in HP that fit well with my image of Snape. . . and Snapefic is all I read.
I've written a few Snape/Regulus implied shorts for my own personal enjoyment. I haven't actually gone and read anything in the SS/RB fandom, I don't have much time for fanfic reading at the moment. : ( But I do enjoy Severus/Regulus and Snupin.
I hate Sirius, James, Lucius, Dumbledore, Draco, Wormtail, Voldemort, and I'm not a big fan of Harry, Ron, Longbottom, or just about any other male character. Besides Snape, I mainly enjoy the female characters of the series so I stick mostly to het.
I have a deep love for AU Snily, but I can't stand what JKR did to Lily in DH. I think it was unfair to both her and Severus, and I could rant about everything from Lily's seemly obliviousness to Severus's love to . . . well, I'll save the rant. I prefer my own personal Lily.
snupin and severus/regulus are my faves as well. I've written a couple of implied sev/reg fics and one where they kiss, but that's it. I enjoy reading good snupin immensely, but I don't write it, as I fear I wouldn't be able to pull it off.
I prefer my own personal Lily too ;-), though when writing them as teens I will sometimes keep it slightly canon, but flesh out her character more, and try to figure out her motivations and stuff. Stuff that Rowling just failed to give us (whether do to lack of time, space or interest I just don't know).

LOL, going off topic!
