Re: op, just want to be clear
(Anonymous) 2015-07-02 01:52 am (UTC)(link)STILL bullshit imo
Because canon shippers can be just as bad. Have you seen some of their behavior towards "rival" characters? Or "rival" shippers?
Or when they berate people who don't ship their pairing as being racist, homophobic, transphobic, misogynistic, etc.

(Anonymous) 2015-07-02 04:45 am (UTC)(link)But you won't, will you? Just like all the other slash fans who have ever whined about those "mean nasty het fans" I've called out over the years. None of you have ever had the guts to stop the bad behavior you've started. Because you ARE one of those canon-ship bashing slash fans and you're butthurt over finally being called out on your crap. Boo hoo, cry me a river.

(Anonymous) 2015-07-02 12:01 pm (UTC)(link)Guess what? Bashing a canon ship is NOT the same as bashing an actress or REAL people. I have NEVER bashed a real person. But the writing? Hell yeah, I'm gonna bash it! I love Scarlett Johansson. I love Mark Rufallo. Nor do I mind BruceNat. But Joss' writing? Absolute GARBAGE.
And HELL YES I will post about how awful I think it is -- how it came out of nowhere with no build up, how WHY Bruce likes Nat is never explained (they at least give a bullshit excuse of her liking him because he's not a fighter like all the other guys she knows). How there was MUCH more of a foundation for Science Bros. (Tony/Bruce) based on the first movie. How the romance ends up DOMINATING Nat's story when she has so many other WAY MORE INTERESTING things that could be done with her character. How it makes some pretty horrible suggestions about "being a monster" based on her lack of ability to have children. So YES I will bash it. I still love Nat and Bruce but NOT the way they were put together.
You NEED to get over yourself. It is NOT the job of slash fans to "call out" the bad behavior of others. Slash fandoms are ENORMOUS oftentimes.
Or do you expect Cloud/Tifa shippers to have spent their time hunting down anyone who ever said a negative thing about Aerith? Because that's BS.
Moreover, I've seen canon het shippers insult slash shippers in HORRIBLY misogynistic ways -- calling them perverts or deviants -- and they are NEVER called out by het fandom. I don't expect het fandom to do this because I'm not a moron and can recognize that you can't control other people's behavior. If you're even aware of it in the first place which, given how large fandom is, is certainly a possibility.

(Anonymous) 2015-07-02 04:32 pm (UTC)(link)There are a few bad eggs in the slash fandoms, but almost every canon het shipper I've met has a sense of entitlement the size of a small country. They ship the RIGHT pairing. They ship along with the CREATOR. They are the One True Pairing and are the only ones keeping everyone IC everyone else is AU trash.
