Yes, but I think "FanDom" implies "Fanatical Domination" meaning someone in The "FanDom" of a certain thing is sexually aroused by dominating other with their fanatical following of said thing.

That's the only explanation I've been able to come up with and I find it hilarious so I'm sticking with it.
