jaybee65, read this discussion about racism in the Wizarding World. It's loooong, but so worth it. I have nothing useful to contribute, I'm afraid, but with things like *this*, and the Fannish Entitlement thread on the FFMB, I'm bursting with fandom love. *squee*
It's great fun, isn't it, to be able to discuss fanish things seriously - and with love! *g*
It's great fun, without people staring at you and wondering if you're a freak, or people yawning and wanting to move on to something that requires less thought like they do in some boards.
Do check out the thread. You'll probably enjoy it.
