Might be because "Keithettes" was used to diminish authority or belittle Keith-fans earlier?
Like feminine qualities should be any poorer than the masculine ones. What utter bullocks. I'm a proud Keithette. A Mickette, too, btw
Was it? Really? My memory is not what it used to be...
Let's talk about feminine qualities! Uhm, better not, we would quickly get another 10 OT pages here. I consider myself a Stonesette, btw. It's ok imo if someone has a favourite band member, but I find it rather funny if this leads to taking sides in band internal rivalry or problems which may be true, but could also as well be constructed by a clever PR strategy...
So back to the new album! Anyone? Rocky? Georgelicks?
How I read the term 'Keithette' in its heyday after Doxa conned it almost as a concept: It was not at all about Keith fans as such. Instead it concerned a certain ideological bias for arguments in favour of Keith and at the cost of others, especially Mick. That bias tends to establish different standards in explanations and in more or less moral judgements of Stones members' doings. Only few Keith fans would then be marked by that idelogical bias much of the time, but, allegedly, some more posters also will from time to time as an exception to their other normal points of view.
Whether Doxa still will find the term topical, or if it for him belonged to a context of its own, I really don't know.
Correct. By calling those fans "girl-ish", though..
From my only slight (maybe too slight) knowledge of it: I see the term as a dimunitive form of Keith. A male form of this dimunitive would probably have been 'Keithet', whereas a female form is 'Keithette'. The latter chosen as more elegant, I guess. My impression is also that "-ette" is a more commonly used suffix form to obtain the dimunitive.
Not at all. It's an intentional degrading fan boy-variant, since it was well-known that the usual suspects here were males.

LOL! I don't care what I'm called, as long as people dare saying it to my face and have balls enough to explain why.
That's why I like Doxa - because he doesn't hide behind BS and PC-ness. It's other people here who goes to enormous lengths to sugar-coat this

Y'all are getting into some idiotic nitpicky Baby It's Cold Outside rubbish!
Wow.
"I'm offended - someone called me a bitch and I'm a MALE!"
That's the world now. Too PC as @#$%&. Where gender determines the sex of a human animal, not... the sex determining the sex, as in, what is your physical frame. Your physical frame has nothing to do with how you feel or think. It's strictly mechanical.
Ya think anyone started calling chocolate milkshakes something else, whatever the @#$%& some PC freak would call it, in New Orleans when the idiot mayor called New Orleans a chocolate city after Hurricane Katrina?
Nooooooo.
Y'all chill out.

I can't speak for Doxa obviously, but if the female form was used intentionally, my best guess is that a certain behaviour resembles the behaviour of a teenage girl who falls in love with with a popstar, a person she obviously does not know personally, only his public image and out of this misguided feeling of having a true personal and emotional relationship with this star, defends him against all odds, no matter what ("Say what you want, my boy is a good guy!"). Whether this is a more typical female behaviour or not can be debated (or better not, it may cause an uproar amongst gender activists, ultimately leading to a closure of this thread!), at least I find it a bit irritating when adult persons behave that way.

The world needs more Taylorites. Unfortunately, there is no genetic proof two Taylorites marrying will raise a family of Taylorites, though sociological proof suggests children of Taylorite families will be more tolerant of Taylorites in general and more comfortable discussing vibratos among their peers.
You have no idea how important it was to turn off AutoCorrect in that last sentence.

I don’t understand the root of this: is it some think others don’t properly criticize The Rolling Stones?
If they don’t write bad things, they are a male or female ‘blinded by love fan’?
And from the ‘not bitchy enough group’ we have classified different dog breed specifications?
Okay.
