From The Jargon File (version 4.4.7, 29 Dec 2003) [jargon]:
fan
n.
Without qualification, indicates a fan of science fiction, especially one
who goes to {con}s and tends to hang out with other fans. Many hackers are
fans, so this term has been imported from fannish slang; however, unlike
much fannish slang it is recognized by most non-fannish hackers. Among SF
fans the plural is correctly fen, but this usage is not automatic to
hackers. ?Laura reads the stuff occasionally but isn't really a fan.?
