Re: 122, 170

122. There's this thing in Heroes fandom where, if you don't like a female character and you say so, very often you're labeled a misogynist. It doesn't matter if you have story-related reasons for not liking the character in question; someone will always decide that it boils down to either your subconscious, patriarchy-programmed hatred of your own vagina or (if you're a guy) your unwillingness to let women get out of the kitchen. Heck, if you like a female character and you say it's because she kicks ass, you're likely to end up labeled because you obviously aren't paying attention to all the sneaky little ways in which she's being put down by The Man. Something similar happens with liking/disliking characters of color. Basically, if you don't like someone it must be because you hate their entire demographic, and if you do like them it's because you're "fetishizing" their "otherness" so that you don't see how they're really a poorly-researched stereotype.

Personally, I think that kind of thinking is a bunch of bull.

170. I'm 30, and my in-laws are 50-something and still active in many fandoms. So I think "too old for fandom" is a similar bunch of bull. Don't sweat it; you'll find other fandoms as you go along. It's what fans do. :)

-same anon as first post-

122. That's...really retarded. I really think she's just a weak character. I would like her more if she wasn't COMPLETELY HELPLESS. I'd like her to stand up for herself for once and not cry for help, or just cry all the time, period. She's really an annoying character.

Maybe it's a good thing I'm not in the Heroes fandom, because I would get mad at that type of thinking as well (I'm female btw :| eh.)

170. Thanks. =] It's not that I don't love being a part of it -- I really do. It's where I belong and where I feel I can be myself, actually. But people in my life seem to think it's childish and I should grow up because I'm legally an adult now. Which, I get kind of defensive at (I love all the dynamics of the Avatarverse, and the show has taught me so much, I just...I just...ajfoaifjsdf), but at the same time it's discouraging because I have no one in real life to talk to fandom about. (Well, except one friend, but I never see her and we're not in the same fandoms...so.)
