This is a really insightful answer, although for additional context I gotta add that what got me thinking about this was looking at how most of my queer friends I've found through fandom, and most of my fandom friends are queer, and how fandom, right now, definitely isn't more "accepting" right now what with the New Satanic Panic going on, and how I just suddenly got this horrible sense of all these young people learning bad boundaries b/c the scenes they hang out in tell them that's "normal", and then going on to exercise those bad boundaries in other scenes.
