Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

Someone who acknowledges their place in some of fandom's sexist patterns is going to understand why they're being accused of such, and then agree or disagree, but not flail on their LJ forever about it.

Well, yeah. But at this point it sounds like you're talking about someone specific and just using the generalization to mask it, so I'll let it go at that.

I'm thinking of quite a lot of people, in fact. It's annoyingly common in fandom, sorry to say. (Flailing in their LJ, flailing over IM, flailing in a room full of people...)

Unfortunately, throwing out unfounded accusations of sexism or mysogyny is also annoyingly common in fandom (being called mysogynistic simply for disliking how a female character is written, for example), though I will say less so. And while ignoring a problem (like sexism) isn't the solution, assuming things are part of the problem and seeing the problem where it isn't is not the solution either.

I agree with you here. I've had people pull that shit on me. "I don't like this female character." "Gasp! SEXIST!!" "Really? You sure? I only dislike her, and there's plenty of other female characters I DO like." "NOPE, SEXIST." I think it's common for people to get called things they're not, in that respect... and honestly, isn't it a natural defense to deny you're something when you aren't, and the claim is made on little more than a person disliking one character?

I agree with OP that the more you deny something the more likely it seems, but I disagree, as people tend to call others sexist with no real foundation in fandom.
