Re: Why do men and women tend to have different fandom styles?

(Anonymous) 2016-02-29 01:56 am (UTC)(link)
I dunno about in general, but my earliest and most long-lasting fandom is mostly women with a couple of men, and had really active message boards/forums, along with fanfic, cosplay, you name it. Then the forums went down, fandom migrated to tumblr, and organized discussion went poof.

Also, there's a lot of discussion and articles out there pointing out that men tend to be cataloging/collecting fans, and women creative/transformative fans, because more canons cater to straight cis white men than, well, anyone else. Women and minorities tweak canon to suit them, hence fanfic, because canon doesn't cater to them. I dunno how true that is, but it's interesting.
