It really is! I definitely think fandom spaces like YouTube do tend to be disproportionately male, with all the toxicity that comes with it. Not that the more female and LGBT dominated fandom spaces don't have their fair share of toxicity, but I'd rather deal with "my preferred gay couple is better than your preferred gay couple" than "gay couples shouldn't even exist". It's much easier to agree to disagree when the disagreement is about personal taste rather than whether some people even have a right to live.
