I'm trying to figure out what I can contribute to the OTW at the moment.
Since about 30% of the people I interact with in fandom are trans men, it sometimes feels like the whole "fandom is female space" thing is another way of telling us, O HAI, UR NOT REAL MEN KTHNXBAI, and that aiming for fandom being *feminist* space might be a better way to go, but that's a whole 'nother discussion. The guys pissing and moaning because they feel they're being "excluded" get right up my nose, though.
