(Anonymous) 2008-10-20 04:20 am (UTC)(link)Nope. I don't deny that there are skads of young, bratty, wanky slash fans. But I know way too many adult slash fans (of varying degrees of bratty and wankiness) to think that they're the majority.
If you look at it again you'll find you didn't ask, you made an offhand, dismissive comment about it and then you asked about other stuff.
This is exactly how the "two different conversations" stuff starts. While I won't pretend that it wasn't a dismissive remark, I kind of assumed that if it actually was relevant, you'd explain how. In my head That's interesting, but I don't see how it's relevant to my original point is a question, even if it's a bit condescending.
For the most part I was talking about how slash had more stupid fans than het and gen in the context of what I said earlier about young slash fangirls.
But, see, since you hadn't ever told me how that was relevant, I couldn't have possibly known that. All I heard was "slash fans are stupid" not "slash fans are young and young fans are stupid".
How this conversation went, in my opinion, is that I opened by saying that because slash demographics are different than het ones, I do think it's pretty fair to say that there are more annoying yaoi fangirls and that there are things peculiar to them, such as yaoi paddles, hating all female characters, etc. Every response of yours thereafter exagerrated whatever my point was and interpreted my jumping-off point as "slash fans suck, lol."
Like I said above, since you never explicitly linked the two concepts in the original post (you connected the age statement and the list of grievances with the word "also" not "therefore" or "so" or anything else that would indicate causality) I had no reason to see them as separate points.
So, based on a misunderstanding on both our parts, you thought you were talking about how young fans acted and I thought you were talking about how all slash fans acted. Even if I'd understood what you were saying, I wouldn't still disagreed with you, but if we'd understood each other a little better, this conversation would have gone much differently.
