I hate the idea of "real fans," particularly in the Doctor Who and Star Wars fandoms. Especially because you get it from every side. In Star Wars, you have the OT-only fans who think that real Star Wars fans hate the prequels and then you have the all-6 fans who think that real fans love everything in Star Wars canon (and then the EU fans who think you have to know every little detail to be real fans). In Doctor Who, you have the Ten-only fans, the all New Who fans, and the Classic Who fans who all think that they are the only real Doctor Who fans.

It gets old, fast. Why can't we just agree to disagree. Sure, debate. But we're talking opinion here. None of this is objective and we're all real fans who enjoy our fandoms in different ways. Stop trying to ruin the enjoyment of other people, tell them they are objectively wrong for liking something, and saying that they aren't real fans.

Ho boy, I hate the idea of "real fans". It's dumb and never ends well. Let people like what they like.

(The Star Trek fandom does this too, I think. Just...let people enjoy themselves.)
