Stanboys are the most overzealous among all fandoms due to their extreme nature of
loyalty to certain objects of affection. Stanboys differ from stans, and -fanboys due to rabid nature. While
fanboy's loyalty can change from
time to
time, a stanboy has absolute refusal to try anything that differs from their liked object.
Similar to how apple fans
will refuse to touch any droid device, marvel fans refuse to watch nondisney filmed comic movies from rival brands , or consoles stans who refuse to play on a console not their favorite brands.
Stanboy behavior is often on par with the behavior of the "TWIHARD" fandom during the late 00s where twilight fans assaulted non-fans who criticized the movie and books with physical violence and various weapons.
