Re: What is "fandom"?

AYRT see this is where you lose me, I don't think being a fan of something makes you part of the fandom. There are shows I'm a fan I but never join the fandom. And I don't think you have to create fanworks to be in fandom, but you have to at least consume them. I don't think fandom is a passive thing and I think it has to go beyond just liking a thing.

So like when someone considers themselves part of the Swifties and follows all the news and buys all the albums but doesn't consume any fanwork, they're not Taylor Swift's fandom?

I wouldn't say so, no. Swifties are fans but not a fandom.

Although they're probably a fandom too. Probably some crossover.

but what about RPF about Taylor Swift?

That would be someone in fandom.

Its not the subject its how people are interacting with it. You can be a Taylor Swift fan but not in TS fandom, or you can be a fan and in fandom.
