Re: Fandom secrets you can't be bothered to make

I do.

But part of my problem is there are a lot of stories that feature these poorly drawn POC and female characters. And a lot of people in fandom simply don't want to accept that I just don't care about them because I find them poorly written. There are, indeed, works with great female and POC characters. And I adore them and could give some recommendations there. But I think you'll agree that there are lots of other works that just have damn poor writing/boring characters for anyone that isn't a white guy. And it gets tiring trying to explain that to people.

So, quite often, I'll join a fandom that's basically all white males so that I can get my hate and squee on in peace without someone trying to analyze my motivations and tell me I have internalized misogyny or that I've internalized white supremacy and am self-hating.

The work might be good, but I've found I'm far less likely to nope the fuck out of a fandom where basically all the characters are white males because there's no social justice analyzing of why you like/dislike a character going on. The hate and love flow freely.
