I didn't think this was really fandom even if tumblr is a fandom space, but here's your secret anyway, anon!

Huh. It never even occurred to me this wouldn't be fandom. It's about tumblr/fandom customs (posting a selfie for your followers to see what you look like), which to me makes it about fandom. I just keep seeing my fandom mutuals do this, so to me it's a completely fandom related thing. But I guess I can see how it's not.

Maybe I should've said, "This is fandom; being pretty and showing off our physical appearances is very much not what fandom is generally about." I just thought that part was obvious. I mean, if I was making this same secret in the context of a fashion blog, it wouldn't make a bit of sense, would it?

I think it would be fandom if it had listed some sort of fandom accomplishment, like followers to your fannish blog or favorites of your fanfic. Or something.

Otherwise its just like. I posted a selfie because I got 300 Instagram followers. Tumblr isn't inherently a fandomy place. If you replace Tumblr with Instagram in that secret, it's unrelated to fandom, so why would it being Tumblr make it related?

Yeah, I literally completely forget Tumblr is not synonymous with fandom. Tumblr has only ever meant fandom to me. Like, I have zero connection to tumblr as anything else. I don't think I've ever even clicked onto Tumblr for anything non-fandom related, so I forget it's not inherently a fandom space, lol.

SA - Thank you for making it for me, though! :)
