#1 - YES! I got some people bashing a favourite fandom of mine over on fanficrants once, and I've seen it happen to other people. It hurts because there tends to be a faint implication that you must be stupid for liking it.

#12 - "So tell me about yourself."
"I'm studying law. I don't drink or smoke, I don't 'party', I go to church on Sundays."
"... Are you human?"
"No sir, I'm a Republican."
(Thank you, Sandra Fuhr.)

I'm a flaming leftie myself, but I have Republican friends in fandom and RL. I honestly don't see why it matters - as you say, fandom is about whether you like a TV show or whatever, not your politics. But if you're not comfortable discussing it, don't.
