    race & culture in fandom - For the past decade, English language fanwriting culture post the days of LiveJournal and Strikethrough has been hugely shaped by a handful of megafandoms that exploded across AO3 and tumblr – I’m talking...https://tmblr.co/ZPNIgwZlZt8Xam00 …

        Good stuff. Why do you think people are resistant to doing the cultural research? When some of the British fandoms were first exploding, "Brit-pickers" were a major thing to ensure details were correct. Why the pushback now? (Besides the obvious white privilege, of course)

        On one level, I suspect a lot of people don’t/didn’t realise how heavily xianxia settings are rooted in real Daoist ideas and Chinese history; they just saw “magic,” assumed “fantasy but Asian” and then got defensive when this was challenged bc it seemed fine to *them*.

        This is excellent! I think it comes down to a default assumption that fandoms' baseline is Western white women, which has marginalized fans who aren't because the cultural preconceptions can differ so much. Hopefully as non-white fandoms emerge this will change.

        Wonderfully put! And a conversation that need to be had. As someone who has been involved in fandoms for content that did not originate in or for my own cultural background, I always try very hard to understand the context of what I am consuming and how I interact with it.

        Just an example, I’ve been a fan of Jpop foe a majority of the last decade. There are a lot of things that would just go over my head: in lyrics, fan culture, and even subbed content that would and still might go over my head. It’s necessary to learn in these contexts.

        Ugh this was such a good read!!! And I didnt even considered the emotional labor on our end, figuring out which authors write about Chinese culture in a way that feels respectful and not icky. Thanks for sharing this!!
