So what happens to me, personally and without fail, is that I get really into things that are considered problematic from a feminist standpoint. And I get all excited and try to find other fans and inevitably get hit with the brick wall of Feminist Discourse. Which is fine, people have their opinions, and they can express them freely, but it does tend to make go, "well, shit, if this thing I enjoy is un-feminist, then fuck feminism tbh." I'm too old and tired to spend my time apologizing to the internets for liking rapey stuff.

Anyway, this is a slightly different reaction from what you're talking about, but I can understand the hand-wringing because the discourse is just everywhere and unavoidable and can be hard not to internalize if you haven't just given up entirely.
