Re: Non-guilty pleasures?

[othellia]

I don't think I have any shows or series that I'm ashamed to like or actively keep secret IRL. I don't usually bring them outside of relevant context or general icebreaker questions. Well, I have fandom TV shirts, computer stickers/backgrounds, ringtones, etc, which technically count as blaring my interests to the world. But most the time I let other people bring them up first.

As for specific fannish activity, I don't usually admit that I have written (and still write) fanfic. I'll only match it if the person admits that they either used to or still read/write fanfic. Same goes with in-depth fandom discussion and belonging to communities like f!s.

I think tumblr's gone a long way in sort of bridging the gap between casual and hardcore fan. Like I've met several people IRL now who mention they reblog stuff on tumblr and buy some merchandise, but that's the extent of their fandom adventures. One of them admitted they used to write a bunch of Draco/Harry slash, but then talked of pretty much all fanfic as if it was a juvenile hobby that everyone was supposed to outgrow. My sister's pretty much the same way, although she was never super into online fandom to begin with. She used to draw a bunch and write self-insert fic in her physical notebooks, and she viewed/read a bunch of other people's stuff online, but she never actually contributed any of her own stuff online... at least, not to my knowledge...
