Being a fan of someone or something and idolizing them/it. Many people will define it as maniacal and obsessive but theres a separate definition for that. Its also a popular wordplay where you use it to show support to someone or something.

Typically said to be “an extremely or excessively enthusiastic and devoted fan” or “to exhibit fandom to an extreme excessive degree”.
The term itself has gotten a negative reputation, so as a new acronym I came up with this.

Generalized form of idolization of a certain person or group. Stans are typically the people who group together as a "fandom" (some fandoms are not cancerous, but the kind that are formed by Stans are. But that does not mean that the material they idolize turns cancerous too.) these Stans are never very old and usually enjoy something called "shipping" which is an extremely creepy practice of saying that two characters/people should get together for a sexual relationship. Or another thing that Stans enjoy are "fan-art" which can be of varying qualities, sexual vibes, and general vibes.
Those stans need to chill, after all they are shipping a minor.
