OP: I've had discussions with my students and bonded with them over popular books and movies. But taking it farther than that and letting them know that I am actively fannish? That can be problematic in several ways, as different anons have referenced elsewhere in this thread. When you work in education, it's not always okay if other people know what kind of hobbies you have.

I'll also copy this which I posted above:

OP: I am best known in my main fandom for writing sometimes plotty smut between characters that were older teens during the canon of their series. Most of the time it was future-fic with them aged up, but a few times it wasn't because teens 15+ having sex is pretty reflective of reality. Do I want to risk a student, particularly one who's not the best student and may be looking for an upper hand, connecting me with my fandom identity and the "child porn" I've written? No.

Some of my fandoms are anime, too, and while it's way more acceptable to be an anime fan now than it was when I started, there are still plenty of negative preconceptions for that interest alone.

Ah, I see. Yeah, I'm going to school (late to that party but better late then never?) for education in the fall, and I guess the thought of students finding my fanfiction would be problematic. And kids are smarter than they get credit for, so it wouldn't take much for them to find it no matter what alias you went by online, you know?

So yeah, I hear you. In that case, I would stay far, far away from any students. Or at least far away from admitting I wrote fanfic, least of all smut of any kind. Definitely don't want that used against me, and some people will use anything they can get their grubby paws on. -_-

I'm an anime/game/book fan so I do understand where you're coming from, minus the smut (I couldn't write it if I tried). While some fandoms I would be okay with people finding out about, I am not okay with them finding my fanfiction for all of them. Too embarrassing/hard to explain/etc and so on.
