I agree with the first part. Not the second. People come to terms with their sexuality in different ways, and if it's through fandom, I honestly don't think it's my place to trivialize what is usually an extremely personal road to self-discovery just because of that.

I used to have a knee-jerk reaction against people who claimed to be bisexual/gay just because it seemed that they took on that label to make themselves edgier, but then the same criticism was leveled at me for a different reason ("you've dated/had sex with guys in the past and you sometimes talk about guys being sexy, you can't be a real lesbian!") and it really hurt, so it made me re-evaluate my position on doing the same to others.

That's why I said "I know it's not fair." I'd like to be able to embrace all my ~lesbian sistren~ regardless of their path to their sexuality, but I've started having and seeing so many bad experiences with "fandom lesbians" that it's getting hard. :/

I know, I got that. Sorry if it came off like I was bitching about it, I was just... sort of adding my own experience to the discussion? idk.
