I know I know, before I begin, there are such things as Fanboys too but I'm expressing on the fact that Fanboys do not Fanboy as much as Fangirls Fangirl. Hope you got that. So what I'm going to do is to TRY to explain the activity phenomenon nowadays known as...Fangirling. Or Fangirls.
Definition:
Definition:
According to the Urban Dictionary, a Fangirl is:
A rabid breed of human female who is obesessed
with either a fictional character or an actor. Similar to the breed of
fanboy. Fangirls congregate at anime conventions and livejournal. Have
been known to glomp, grope, and tackle when encountering said
obesessions.
Hmmm, not bad.
The truth is, I think fangirling is the new term they got for someone expressing their "love" for their idol.
And they can include pretty incredible and terrifying stuff.

Activities:
The action of Fangirling is usually done when the creature or fangirl/fanboy sees, hears, touches, tastes and smells anything related to their idol.
It is commonly known, or as I put it, as the Fangirl Effect Theorem.
It is stated in the Fangirl Effect Theorem that automatically when a Fangirl is exposed to a topic concerning the idol the Fangirl is now affected by the Fangirl Effect which is talking and ranting non-stop about their idol in ever which way possible. Beware.
(The Fangirl Effect Theorem is also applicable to Fanboys)
Habitat:
Fangirls/Fanboys are usually found in their rooms which always comes with a computer set and internet connection. It is very rare and unlikely to find a specie without such in their habitat.
They use these tools to feel closer to their idol, even though it is only by the form of pixelated and virtual contact.They believe that things such as Tweeting and Twitcams are helpful in making their idol know they actually do exist. SOME very, very lucky and very, very rich fangirls however will get to meet their idol in real life.
Other than their tools of trade, also one of the most common things you are sure to find in a fangirl's habitat are certain things related to their idol such as pictures, collectibles, posters, books, cd-s, etc. Some species actually use their habitat as well to show-off or compete their "love" to their idol.
They can form their room into a shrine of some sort, overnight.
Loyalty and Capability:

Loyalty and Capability:
Fangirls and Fanboys are such interesting breeds because they can go to multiple heights in the terms of idolization. Over the last few internet years fangirls have already proven domination towards human minds.
It is amazing how humans are loyal and hardworking and dedicated enough for this kind of activity.
Even though Fangirls/Fanboys are usually kind in nature, heed my warning, they are very protective and can be very dangerous.
They can cause massive stampedes wherever their idol is, they can scream so loud your eardrums will bleed, they will bully/attack anyone, and I do mean anyone, that hinders them from their idol or even insult their idol. Some huge fanbases have been known to end someone's career. Imagine that!
They are also a part of the stalker specie, because they will probably know more about their idols than they know about themselves.
Overview:
All in all I can say that fangirling/ fanboying, or being a fangirl/fanboy, or being a part of a fanbase or fandom or fanmily isn't bad, but these species should ALWAYS get a healthy does of Respect :)
And this includes all the other forms of respect, respect to another fanbase, respect to your idol's privacy, respect of rights and judgement and many more.

Although it is okay to protect your idol from those mean haters and useless opinions, we (YES, I am a fangirl) should always remember to be reasonable in those terms and not pressure them too much that they'd become a hater.
(Main causes of haters are actually the fans.)
Alright to give you a better understanding I will leave you with a usual example of a possible fangirl /fangirling situation, as so:
