I'm not sure you saw metamiri's post, but the false dichotomy between fan and academic really bothers me! I can cite deLauretis and squee too :) I think Miriam's point is well taken in the sense that lingo can become exclusionary, but I get frustrated when my particular theory heavy engagement with fandom becomes somehow less authentic than a more squeey one...
