I remember the 90s when Doctor Who fandom was all Autistic guys and gay men.
My issue with many female fans of nerdy things isn't attention seeking, or that sexist trope only guys are true fans and girls just poseurs. I just hate that so many fandoms made up of a high percentage of women inevitably devolve into shipping wars.

It's threatening to ruin Arrow: a perfectly awesome show, with writing that far surpasses what the CW is normally capable of, but due to the CW caving to girl fans who demand a certain couple get together, a romantic subplot is starting to dominate screen time and character development at the expense of the actual story. **** Olicity.
