It's kind of gratifying to see TeniPuri getting a slightly bigger share of the [livejournal.com profile] fandomsecrets lol!pie. Although I agree/don't disagree with most of the secrets I've seen so far. |3

6. Oh, dear. D: Playing Yuki is a pretty challenging proposition from what I've seen, so perhaps you should cut the player some slack. On the other hand... whores/clingy/artfags ew. :///

9. I... think it's silly to commission for fanthings. I'm in fandom because I love it and because I love to meet other people who love it, and my fandom contributions, measly though they are, are there so that other people can get moar out of their favorite fandom. X3 ♥ Not to say I don't think that it's okay to commission for cosplay costumes/etc., since that makes sense, but... fanworks? :/ Quite aside from intellectual property... why would you do that? I mean I'd probably churn out moar fanwork if I got money off of it, but still... XD

13. I do that sometimes too, but I always feel like I'm wasting paper. :/ ... Then I write fanfic on the backs. XD

14. Ahaha, not that I don't understand what you mean, but. |3 For some reason I like corrupting childhoods. I actually went back to Digimon when I got into slash and like... raided the DaiKen fandom. XDDDDD

16. LOL SO WANKY OHSHI. I just find this funny, because... good for you? XD You could always provide some links and resources and crap instead of lecturing people about how well you're doing if you wanted to do your online community service. >:

20. ... :/ It makes me sad when people say they hate a fandom because of what the fans are doing, because... man, I just love Bleach and its art and its storyline, andand yeah I know it's one of those BIG BAD FANDOMS but I wish moar people would get into it. D|

23. I also wish it didn't have to get to the point where I almost feel ashamed to admit that I... very rarely latch on to female characters. It all really, really depends. I liked Haruhi well enough, but I didn't fangirl her. :/ I guess I just gravitate more naturally to guy characters.

27. I've watched two episodes of Gintama and I WANT MORE. XD Of course, I'm also a complete tard for shounen series (SEE ICON ESP.), so I guess my sense of humor is horrible. O WELL. XDDDDDDD

28. LOL I also like how much of a kerfuffle this one generated. I think the OP was just being curious. I've met a lot of lesbians/bisexuals/transgenders/etc. through the Internet myself; and I just think it's because the Internet/fandom is a more open/comfortable medium. That's all there is to it. :3 Plus it depends where you gravitate in fandom. If you're in the slash portion? Yeah you'll prolly meet a lot of not-quite-straight people. |D

And since I'm tl;dr'in tonight I might as well add my two cents: I'm fine with your sexuality however you want it to be, but can we please stop with the GAY VS. STRAIGHT GREAT DEBATE crap? Homophobia isn't a nice thing to see, but neither is 'omg you're just saying you might be gay/bi/a plant/a pot of salmon becuz it's in fashion, you're not a TRUE SEXUAL DEVIANT'. *facepalms*

I know what you mean... for some reason, I'm okay with slashing Digimon. My favorite pairing is Angemon/Takeru, and I definitely picked up on the Taichi/Yamato subtext the second time around... :P

For whatever reason, though, HP is resistant to that kind of thinking...
