Re: Cumberbatch is breeding with his fiancee

I don't understand. Is it only real now because there will be a child?

To the diehard fans that disillusion themselves with a chance at him?

Probably no, since now they'll be wishing for an early divorce...

See: The J2 Tinhatters.

kids tend to really throw the wrench in tinhatters' works.

However, I get the sense that with the Cumberbatch drama, the tinhatting and/or obsessive creepy fangirling is mostly made up - not a lot of people actually doing it.

Re: Cumberbatch is breeding with his fiancee

It really is like this. The tinhatters/super creepy fangirls are such a ridiculously tiny minority (like genuinely, honestly, I watch all the tags and I've seen...three? three assholes like that), they're almost not worth mentioning-- but that doesn't make for interesting reading, so articles get written making the fandom out to be insane. And everyone else just runs with it. It's horribly disheartening.

Re: Cumberbatch is breeding with his fiancee

I think also part of it is that some other fandoms (like Supernatural) have a larger or at least much more vocal contingent of tinhatters, so everyone is pro-acting to that expectation. Maybe fandom is actually learning from its mistakes (gasp) or maybe the Cumberbatch fandom is just more mature than the J2 fandom (seems unlikely, but I'm not in either one, so) but apparently the overall response has been much, much healthier, even if people are still expecting some ridiculous OTT drama that may or may not ever happen.

I've noticed that in other actors' fandoms as well-- something happens, discussion boards start talking about how Actor A's crazy fans are wigging out on Tumblr... and over on the actor's tag on Tumblr there is zero drama. I can't decide if a whole lot of people are easily shocked, or if they're so determined to look down on someone they make stuff up and persuade themselves it happened.
