There are parts of fandom that have problems -- because, surprise, fandom is made up of people. My first roundtable, episode 35, dealt with the toxicity in the Star Wars fandom. A side conversation in that podcast led to this episode, wherein we (very broadly) talk about some of the more taboo aspects of shipping.

There's been a lot of talk in the last few months about the toxicity in the Star Wars fandom, specifically in the backlash against The Last Jedi. How it connects to women and people of color in fandom is not an accident. So, I got together with some women to discuss the female perspective on the issue.
