I added them in because it's something else people baww over for attention. For me, real life has no place in fandom and bitching about "being oppressed" belongs elsewhere. Real-life sociopolitical issues should be dealt with in real life, not on someone's forum or LJ. I support forming rallies and taking a political stand, but it really needs to GTFO my internet.
Yes this is extremely politically incorrect, but I've read one too many ten-page rants on why (for example) Doctor Who is the most racist sexist insensitive thing to ever happen in the history of FOREVER. Take it to the BBC and leave me and my fandom alone.
