You aren't a part of this fandom unless... [Gatekeep your fandom/group] (1 Viewer)

[maruberry]

I will start off with this:

1. You aren't really an EXO-L if you can't recognize Yixings solo songs.

 

[QueenB]

Idk if its gatekeeper or not but:

You are not a group fan if you only like one member and dislike/ignore the rest.

For EXO:
-Never told a satansoo joke or Suho a rich dad joke

Twice:
-watched sixteen clips....some are so important to the girls growing and debuting

 

[igloo]

Fuck it you can be a Merry however
we need all the stans we can get
just don't be a dick pls and thx

 

[Myco]

You ain't a choice if Jun isn't your bias or your wrecker

 

[yeji]

you ain't an ikonic if you don't support ot7/chanwoo.
like come on. you gotta love our maknae

 

[RandAlThor]

Oath

Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of fanwars, I will fear no evil: for Red Velvet is with me; thy Red and thy Velvet they comfort me.

Thou preparest Albums before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with song; my cup runneth over.

Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the hall of great music for ever.

I'm going to avoid the obvious ones that are sensitive (like about supporting all five members still, etc) but instead include some absurd ones and funny ones:

SHINee

You're not a Shawol unless you have seen Hello Baby
You're not a Shawol unless you buy ALL the solo albums and follow ALL the solo releases and promotions (and not just casually, mind you)
You're not a Shawol unless you have used at least one dibidibidis joke in your life
You're not a Shawol if you dislike Ring Ding Dong
You're not a Shawol if your favorite color isn't pearlescent aqua green
You're not a Shawol if you haven't ever shipped Jongkey/2min and "forever alone Onew" (or Onew+Chicken)
You're not a Shawol if you don't support Taemin's Sherlock weave
You're not a Shawol if you don't recognize Taemin as your baby man child (despite his age and sexual appeal to many, myself included)


ASTRO

You're not an AROHA if you haven't told someone "gachi gallae" at least once in your life
You're not an AROHA if you think Moonbin's anything less than the best pupcat
You're not an AROHA if you hate the number 777
You're not an AROHA if your giant maknae is someone other than Yoon Sanha
You're not an AROHA if you don't know that Lee Dongmin is Cha Eunwoo
You're not an AROHA unless you have memorized how many times Eunwoo has performed "Up & Down"
You're not an AROHA if you don't like soda/soda pop/cola
You're not an AROHA if you aren't Crazy, Sexy, and Cool


OKAY now on to real stuff and actual things Shawols & AROHA should do:



SHINee

You're not a Shawol if you only support one member.
You're not a Shawol if you ignore the multi-talented facets of each member.
You're not a Shawol if you don't support the boys' decisions in their solo work, even if you don't agree with them.
You're not a Shawol if you aren't supportive of the families of the boys - doggos included!

And last but not least, you're not a Shawol if you don't 100% accept that Roo is the princess of SHINee and SHINee World and always will be, from now until the end of time.


ASTRO

You're not an AROHA if you only support one member.
You're not an AROHA if you ignore the multi-talented facets of each member.
You're not an AROHA if you don't support the boys' decisions in their solo work, even if you don't agree with them.
You're not an AROHA if you only recognize Eunwoo (and, if then, only recognize his physical appearance and not his talents)
You're not an AROHA if you can't stick by them, even if they don't top charts or win all the awards

And last but not least, you're not an AROHA if you are pushy in thinking they should change who they are or their image to fit what the market wants or to be more like popular groups' concepts/images

 

[taemkitten]
