107. I don't think I will ever quite get why so much of Avatar fandom is totally okay with a fourteen-year-old having a romance, but not a twelve-year-old. They're both kids. Is it just because of the way they're drawn? Aang does look more child-like in his design than Katara, but to me they both act too young for me to think of them as an adult romance (or even a teenage one like Mai and Zuko).

108. What I completely fail to get is why people like you come to

fandomsecrets. This place is the mecca of pathetic, obsessed fans.

130. Here's a tip: if you don't want to get called a homophobe, stop being so freaked out that some people like making all their favorite characters gay. I don't like it either, but 90% of the people I see complaining about "omg they made everyone gay! It's so terrifying!" totally ping my "still kind of uncomfortable around the gay" radar. Which isn't necessarily the same thing as "homophobic," but it's on the same spectrum.

135. They're memes. This is really all you need to know. Fandom loev memes. (That's also a meme.)

141. I think that the vast majority of fandom interest in general for Lyle has its roots in "fandom wanted Neil to turn out that way." Lyle is a conveniently less-screwed-up blank slate for them to project all that stuff onto. It's a neat trick by Sunrise.

177. I'm with you. I have so much trouble telling most celebrities apart, especially when they have the same hair color.

That's actually part of why I got out of the pairing, but Katara in a relationship works for me a lot more than Aang. (Also, at the end of the show, she's 15 and Aang's 13. 13 still really feels too young to me, though.) She's still child-like sometimes, when she has a chance to be, but she's had to become a mini-adult, essentially. Aang, despite the pressure, really hasn't, and is a lot less emotionally mature than she is, at least in my opinion. Still, as I said, I'd prefer no romance at all.

For my part, I find that the fact that Katara's been forced into being a mini-adult only means that she's that much farther away from actually having an adult relationship.

I do see where you're coming from, though. Myself, I'm totally cool with Aang/Katara as a cute-preteen-crush best-friends-forever thing that will become a great romantic relationship when they're old enough, and I really like it that way, but I think it really could have done with dialing back the heavy romance in S3.

141. Totally. I just wish that fandom would treat him with what little we have seen of his character, instead of LOLTHISWOULDBEHOT.

I think this is made somewhat difficult by the fact that the show essentially treats him as a continuation of/counterpoint to Neil's character rather than a separate character in his own right. This might have worked if they'd bothered to start developing him that way in S1, or maybe even if they'd given him a more active role in the start of S2 (like, having him seek out CB instead of having Setsuna pop up and tell him, "Now we're going to give you someone else's name! Congrats!"), but as it is it feels like rather pasted-on pandering, not to mention insulting to both of the Dylandy brothers as characters. :/

108. Lol, very good point.

This. And, it's like... would they care if someone wrote a bunch of pairing fics that kept/made all of the characters heterosexual? Would they even be as upset if the author femslashed all the girls together, as opposed to making the male characters gay? It's this huge gigantic weird double (and sometimes triple) standard, and while I loev me some het and femslash just as much as the slash so I don't tend to make everyone gay all the time, people who freak out about it weird me out a little.

B-B-B-BUT SOME OF MY BEST FRIENDS ARE GAY!!!
