Then why are you in fandom?

No, I don't mean it rhetorically. I mean, this secret makes no sense. If you're not affected by any of it, what possible reason do you have to participate in your fandoms at all? How did you even get into fandom in the first place if you're never affected by anything? What motivation do you have to be in fandom if that's your only reaction? I don't get how someone with that view can exist in fandom. It's like an anti-gun activist being in the NRA. Just...why?

OP only said they didn't feel affected by the parts that most people said were "sad", not that they had no emotional response to anything in the source material. They could like it for the comedy, or the romances, or the action scenes. Or maybe the parts that made them cry were parts that weren't really discussed as much.

^^This. The sad stuff doesn't bug me, but I still love the romances and the happy moments and the scary moments.

Plus, it's sort of like...research, I guess? I'm planning on being a writer, and participating in fandoms comprised of my target audience helps me see how people tick.

Ah, I get it now. Your wording in your secret is a bit misleading though.

Yeah, sorry about that. I had a lot of design problems with this secret, for some reason.
