I must admit, I hate the word Trekkie, Trekker, etc.
Are SW fans Warsies?
LOTR fans Lordies?
I know, some ST fans are in a world of themselves, but that applies to most of the hardcore fans of almost anything.
Some people collect bottle caps. Are they Cappies?
Others stamps. Stampies?
Others teddy bears. Teddies? Huggies?
To me, it's almost a swear word, invented by people that really dislike SF.
I don't like the word Trekker, either, because that's the Dutch word for someone who plays with himself.
Star Trek fan doesn't seem too much to ask for, IMO.
Make it so!!!!
