I think it's easy to get certain perceptions, when the loudest voices in any community are comprised of kids, just playing. They tend to drown out the more rational members, I think that's true.

I think you have to look at people and think is this behavior that is a fannish reaction caused by delusion/hormones/whatever, or is this a connection that the person could have made at any time of life.

I think that's a good distinction.
