Fandom has always been a relatively safe space for women to explore those fantasies they couldn't disclose to "normal" people. Of course "normal" people don't get what we do. Most of them think slash is pretty weird, too, A good portion of the fic on AO3 would be banned on other erotica sites and unsellable on Amazon. Using "normal" people as a gauge is weird because having a safe haven from "normal" people has historically been the whole point of fandom.

This.

Seriously, why should I give a fuck about what the average person out there thinks of my hobby? The average person has some pretty fucked-up beliefs about a lot of things, especially insofar as they touch upon issues of oppression.

right? and like, even the most "open-minded liberal" non-fandom individual is still going to not understand the culture of fandom, its history and its relationship to womens sexuality, so trying to drag them into it by being like "SEE, MY NORMAL FRIENDS THINK YOU'RE WEIRDOS" is so utterly disingenuous

Ah, okay, this clarifies things. See, I love and respect my "normal" friends. They're just like fandom people, expect none of them think getting off on hebephilic fantasies and the like is cool. I'll just stick with them, and the significant percentage of fandom who continues to uphold the level of relative sanity. *thumbs up*
