Lots of people are very ignorant about stuff they have no experience with and I think fandom can be a positive influence depending on the people they surround themselves with.

I agree with this. I've always been pro-LGBT, and vocally so when the occasion called for it, but despite that, when I first started shipping my first-ever slash pairing, I had some weirdly prejudicial reactions. Like, the first couple of times I read m/m smut my brain said "WTF DICKS ARE TOUCHING WTF?!!" or it said, "OMG that character's not gay [because canonically he wasn't] but his friend just came onto him, omg omg that's so embarrassing!!!" And at that point I realized I was uncomfortable in a way I hadn't been when reading het, and it was like, "Huh, that's kind of shitty of me, I need to get the fuck over that." So I did.

So yeah, slash did not make me "virtuous" or whatever, because not being prejudicial doesn't make one virtuous; slash just made me jettison some subconscious bullshit I'd been carrying around unknowingly.
