As long as it's just mildly sexual, objectifying stuff like 'damn Actor X is hot. I want to lick his ears' and not really outrageously stuff like fantasising about raping the actor or tying him up in a padlocked box with a tiny hole in it to put your penis into once a day until he starves to death, I don't think that's creepy.

The reason a lot of male-fangirling (particularly of female characters) is so terrifying is because 1) it tends to be approached as something that they're entitled to, 2) it tends to be very physical and all about specific fantasies, 3) there is also this culture of 'but Y is hotter!' hotfighting that I don't see amongst female fangirls. When a female fangirl finds an actor unappealing they just say so, but male fangirls tend to do dumb things like 'which actor is the hottest' or 'order the girls in this fandom from hottest to least hot' and it's all about quantifying hotness and making it currency.

Basically, keep out of describing incredibly detailed and/or rapey fantasies unless you're talking to someone you know is comfortable with it, don't feel entitled to fanservice and don't attempt to quanitify hotness and you'll be fine. I am pretty sure you are doing all this anyway.


Also, some of the creepiest fangirling I have known in fandom has been from women, and some of the least creepy fangirling I have known has come from men.
