imhto there are people who are queer in a normal way and queer in an internet fandom way and microlabels like pansexual and demisexual whatnot fall into the internet fandom category.

I think a lot of this happens bc young ppl (like middle and high schoolers) are closeted and their only way of being queer is on the internet, and therefore their perspective on being queer is heavily influenced by how they were already acting online/others online, which for a lot of ppl is fandom behavior and stuff. And then it disseminates from there.
