Can you expand on what you mean and why you resent it

Re: Secrets You're Too Lazy to Make

Back then, people in fandom were overwhelmingly women. A lot of us were queer women, but being queer was never the main point of anyone's presence. Today, fandom is still overwhelmingly women and people who used to identify as women but don't any longer, but it increasingly feels like the majority of them are queer people whose main concern isn't the FEMALE experience but the QUEER experience. That is probably some combination of a natural development and/or fandom's liberal leanings in general, but I can't help feeling like fandom has become a more exclusive sandbox.

With respect, it doesn't sound to me like it's less exclusive, just exclusive in a different way.

(I'm also not sure "exclusive" is exactly the right word but I get what you mean)

You're glossing over the fact that back then there were a lot of really nasty threads of homophobia running through fandom. People are more vocally out now than they were ten or fifteen or twenty years ago because it's less likely to get them an inbox full of homophobic slurs and occasional death wishes than it was ten or fifteen or twenty years ago.

There's still space for cishet women in fandom, it just isn't all the space in all the fandoms.
