Fangirl Questionnaire

So I referred to this earlier. Please answer by commenting if you feel so inclined and consider yourself a fangirl. Thank you.

1. Age

2. Do you consider yourself to be a fangirl?(Yes or no, please.) If not, why?

3. How would you define the term fangirl in general?

4. How would you describe yourself as a fangirl?

5. What activities do you count as being fangirlish? How often you do them?

6. How long would you say that you have been a fangirl?

7. Do you think the term fangirl is derogatory inside the fandom(s) you belong to?

8. Do you openly define yourself as a fangirl in all your fandoms?

9. Any other thoughts?

This questionnaire will be the material for an essay I'm writing on fangirls. All answers will be treated anonymously and if referred to, using only gender and age. And it's also the first time I've done a sort of field research, a questionnaire, so please bear with the questions. And if any of them seem odd It's because English is only my second language.

If you want you can also return your answers via email to saraste_impi@hotmail.com. All concerns, questions and what not can also be sent there.

This questionnaire will only be up / I'll be accepting answers until Friday the 27^th of April. (27.4) No answers after that date will not be included into the statistics portion of my work but may be referred to in passing in the text. (Or not included at all.)
