People should be allowed to enjoy their fandom without having to be constalntly reminded that they are second class citizens, too! My right to feel like a human being trumps your right to have fun at my expense. See how that works?

Things in reality have consequences, yes. Things in fandom do, too, because there are real people involved in fandom. If a person is hurt by something that is said online, the fact that it happened online or in fandom doesn't make it hurt any less.

Words have consequences. And telling people they don't have the right to be upset or offended just because you don't find it problematic means you are exercising privilege that the rest of us don't necessarily have. It's offensive and demeaning and it completely dehumanizes the real people in fandom for whom these issues are personal and immediate. Whether the OP supports gay marriage or not, she's still exercising her privilege by wanting to shut down discussion of the issue. And that is abhorrent behavior. (Here's (http://blog.shrub.com/archives/tekanji/2006-03-08_146) an excellent primer on Privilege and You, if you're interested- it outlines things that are applicable in any dicussion of minorities.)

Sure, fandom is for fun, but saying that it can't be anything else- sociopolitical, or a safe space for minorities, for instance- takes a rather sadly narrow view of everything that fandom is.

Basically, this.

Thank you for that.
