1. It's actually finevto be friends with teenagers? They're generally good people and they need adult friends in their lives.

2. Internet fandom as it currently exists can be traced, in a very real way, to a mailing list callex HP4GU: Harry Potter For Grownups. There has always been a place for adult fans of kids' media to be. Even in the most kid-focused fandoms, I promise there are adult-majority spaces. You just have to be willing to wade in far enough to make enough friends to find them. I'm currently in a *terrifyingly* young fandom but the adult-majority spaces are there I promise!

I think for the most part in fandom these days, you have basically two choices - you can like childish media and share fandoms with teenagers, or you can like other media and share fandoms with no one. It's a pretty narrow slice of fandoms where one or the other isn't true.

Right there with you, OP. The older I get, the more I feel the distance between myself and younger fans -- not in a snarky or condescending way, just like, we're in very different stages of our lives, our emotional investments in fannish things takes on very different shapes, and we're basically alien to each other in all the ways I would normally seek connection with other people over shared interests -- and the less I want to engage with them.

Fandom is an incredibly lonely place at the moment for a lot of us, I think, so take heart in knowing you're not alone, at least, in feeling that way.

I dunno. I’m 30 now, and I’m pretty much producing the same kind of Internet content the teenagers are. I feel like I won’t be in a “different life stage” from them unless I ever reach a point where I have different enemies than them. (Like, I was hassled by the cops once for playing Pokémon Go, and that feels like a teenager kind of threat.)

Just curious, but what do you define as "childish media", OP? I watch a ton of anime and the fandoms for those tend to have a lot of teenage fans, but I don't mind chatting with them. I have one fandom friend who's a teenager and we get along really well.

OP of secret:

(Anonymous) 2022-07-05 03:02 am (UTC)(link)
Just wanted to say thanks a lot, secret maker!!

(Anonymous) 2022-07-05 04:49 am (UTC)(link)
I don't mind talking to teenagers hen its just strictly about fandom and never about any 18+ topics; but I've been so relectant to make friends in general - mostly due to the platform.

Its so weird thinking back on Livejournal days pre-2010. I am very aware that it had issues and wasn't flawless, but I certain made more friends on there regardless of age - especially when it came to fandom stuff (I certainly remember making friends with adults in the Naruto fandom alongside teenage friends - and it hadn't been creepy at all because we were too busy either shitposting or taking about recent updates to the series. I get a little sad that I had fallen out of touch with a few of them when LJ just kind of died around 2012 when people either moved onto tumblr or twitter).

With Tumblr, its very easy not to talk to anyone ever. Not to mention the absolute batshittery that would happen on there when someone suddenly decided who was too problematic and other things along that line that made interacting not worth it. IDK, I still enjoy fandom - but its hell when it consists mostly of teens.

I'm in my forties and currently having great fun in fandom with people half my age and younger, so it can definitely be done op.

Being drunk or/and high is superfun, but watching other people be drunk and/or high is not great fun at all. It gets worse if you have had to babysit the drunkards too, and are busy recalling that while watching the characters on screen. I gotta agree with the OP.

What draws you to a fandom?

(Anonymous) 2022-07-04 09:54 pm (UTC)(link)
Sort of vaguely inspired by #1 - what kind of fandoms do you like, and what kind of media do you get fannish about? What do things you're fannish about have in common? Whether it's a medium, a tone or genre, specific character dynamics, or different kinds of fanworks. Or is it just totally random?

I'm a teenager myself and a fan of Genshin Impact, and even then I feel ostracized from fellow fans who are only a couple of years younger than me. I've noticed there seems to be so much more "paranoia" about adults within the under-18 fandom community, which in turn makes adult fans feel ostracized and thus participating less publically in certain fandoms. Of course I could be wrong about that last part, like I said, I myself am a teenager, lol.

I'm an old myself, and one thing I've noticed in recent fandom is that the natural tendency teenagers have always had to think adults are kind of cringe and boring has become really dramatically escalated to that paranoia you talk about. The rise in prevalence of adults being called "pedophiles" and "groomers" just for co-existing in a fandom space is really stark and dramatic from just a few years ago.

And it isn't always in fandoms for kid-friendly media: when HANNIBAL of all things was in reruns on Netflix a couple years ago, there was an influx of teens in the fandom who were really really upset that there were adults in this fandom about a middle-aged cannibal serial killer.
