Fangirlism and Fanboyism

Heeheh.

Hoohoo.

Haha.

Oh, eh, excuse me. Probably should get to the point, right?
I was talking with some friends at church today and the issue of fan...something-or-other came up, so now I shall rant a good paragraph or five and you shall read, savvy? Thank you!

Fangirlism. The term sends shivers down my spine. For those of you who don't...ah forget that, if you don't know what Fangirlism is then you clearly should not be reading this. Get off.
So for all of you who still don't know and are rebellious enough to keep reading, Fangirlism (stop capitalizing it autocorrect, it's not a proper noun) is when girls fawn, dote, or have fanciful ideas of a guy, whether he's real or not. Sound familiar? If not, how about reading my fanservice post first.
FIRST.
To be brief and cut to the quick, Fangirlism (NOT capitalized) is unhealthy, and dangerous. Why is it unhealthy? Because it's dangerous. And why is it dangerous? Well, if taken to far (and there's a fine, fine line between mere fan and then fangirl) it can damage existing relationships, especially if you, as a girl, already have a boyfriend. If you fangirl over some guy and try to have a regular boyfriend-girlfriend relationship, you will unconsciously be holding your boyfriend up to your...object...of...Fangirlism, and that can lead to bad things. Also, if you're a Christian, extreme Fangirlism is the same as idolatry. Watch out gals, watch out.
Speaking personally as a guy, I know that when girls 'fangirl' over guy celebs it hurts our sense of manliness. Don't understand? Good. You know how we feel trying to comprehend you. Muhaha.

Same thing goes for fanboyism, although fanboyism is pretty much lust, in most cases. Guys, don't ever find yourself 'fanboying' over anyone, unless perhaps it's your fiancée.

Having said all that, I'm not being too serious, people. Not many people I know actually 'fangirl' or 'fanboy' in my interpretation of the terms. But there's waaay too many people out there who DO.

Signing off, ladies and gents!
