*childish need to make them out to be Bad People*
Is this because we have literal twelve-year-olds hanging out in fannish spaces where they aren't supposed to?

I listened to a podcast of an author I *love* a while back and nearly freaked--she seriously sounded like she was early teens. She's got to be at least college age...I hope...but it was a graphic reminder how much wider fandom is nowadays. I started in fandom when the only people online were academics and grown-ups with jobs.

I know I'm late to the party, but that author likely is an adult, just "blessed" with a young-sounding voice. Both my mother (turning 70 this year) and me (41 in May) have voices that telemarketers ask if our parents are home! But since it sounds like we started in fandom around the same timeframe, it's still hard for me to wrap my head around the fact kids today are growing up with fandom, while for me it was a revelation to my college-age self that there were other "nerds" like me out there.
