This is not true. I'm part of several groups that get targeted early when people start hand-wringing about the children and the abuse survivors and the tender sensibilities of innocents. In the 90's and early 00's fandoms I was a part of online, though, that kind of behavior - throwing people who were more gay and darker and writing scarier kinks than you under the bus in the hopes that normies would accept more vanilla fandom just as long as you weren't associated with the actual worst - was seen as betrayal and cowardice.

That's been a thing before, and we could have that again.

I have always been that very vanilla person that made others ask “what is this kid even doing in fandom if they don’t like X and Y?” and nowadays even I am problematic by young kids’ standards so I can agree with this comment.

But the internet has changed, and it’s so associated with our RL lives nowadays that only us oldies seem to write/read for emotional catharsis anymore. Back then we could expect our fic or whatever fanwork to be a well-kept secret. So maybe kids who grew up in this new Internet can’t (or don’t want to) separate the spheres that well. Hell even I find trouble doing that now, even if I avoid doing things like post pictures online. What I am trying to say is that these changes should be attributed to changes in the way the WWW works more than people’s attitudinal changes, do you agree?
