I get so uncomfortable when fanfic is brought up in my college classes. It's happened in two of them so far and I always just cringe.

I'm not sure why - it's not like people can tell my looking at me that I write fanfic - but I just feel like something that is personal is being dragged out for people to chat about and I don't like it.

Also, I'm conversative in that part of me really feels often times fanfic is not an appropriate subject for college classes.
