I... Did you really just compare the struggles women have historically gone through to the struggles fans go through? Is that a thing that just happened? Because holy shit, there is no way you're not a troll.

It was meant to point out that socially a lot of women are taught to be polite. To not be a 'bitch' or 'bossy' or 'nagging', where as guys are taught to 'take charge' and 'be assertive' and 'show leadership'.

And there's probably a lot of overlap between that and the fandom ideas that we should all keep our heads down and be grateful and polite and not demanding. And it's probably not a coincidence that they chose a feminism twitter as their example to shame for stepping out of line and not being a "good fan".

I did not mean to make light of historical struggles and I'm sorry it came across that way.
