Loved the paper. I'm a bit frustrated with it now, though...I think it's dangerously likely to lead to one or more essays on related topics in my own work and eat up precious tidbits of free time.
I particularly liked the suggestions of fandom as a queer space more than a straight/lesbian/bi/etc. space; the coexistence of varied sexualities (of all varieties of fixedness and fluidity) within my little corner of fandom has always had great appeal for me, and this paper has helped me in the process of framing/contextualizing the ways in which I experience this.
