Very good post. I'm not sure that I have anything of substantive value to say about it, except that I sympathise and that I think the questions you've raised are very interesting ones. Are you planning to submit this to metafandom? Because it would be good to see how the wider fannish community integrated it into the discussion that's been going on.
(I have riffled through my brain trying to think whether I've met any fannish Asians other than you, and I think the answer, sadly, is one. Big Trekkie, interested in politics. (Conservative). Lives in Oxford. Still a man, though.)
