Re: stupidity vs. sexism

Well, if by "fandom is a female dominated space", you means that fandom is a space where most of the people are female, I've not a problem with that.
And if female are not harassed in fandom like they were in other space and are more free to talk frankly about things whic interess them, I found it's a marvellous thing.
(and everyone should agree that fandom should not be an exception for this matter).

My problem is when some people are describing the fandom like a private space for women and nothing more.

But since I'm a guy, maybe that's why it was hard for me to understood how female were treated differently in fandom and that's maybe the reason I've misundertsood some people about this matter.^^;
