I think sexual attraction plays a huge role in many ships, yes. I'm not saying it's THE qualifier for every person and every ship. But I do think most people who are into a ship like Hannibal/Will are into it because they're hot--otherwise, unless you have some very fucked up inclinations, that ship, what with all the people-eating and murder, is not sexually appealing.

Well yeah. Not going to argue with you there. Though I think the sexual attraction of shipping is often a lot more complex than "Fan is attracted to character." More like, "Fan imagines what Character A's attraction to Character B feels like. Fan imagines what Character B's attraction to Character A feels like. Fan implodes from internalized attraction loop."

unless you have some very fucked up inclinations, that ship, what with all the people-eating and murder, is not sexually appealing.

I find this ship pretty fucked up myself, but I believe I understand it's appeal. It's about the fact that Will is like Hannibal's antiparticle. Hannibal has a complete lack of empathy, while we are told from the beginning that Will is the opposite; he has what the show calls "perfect empathy." Hannibal is immediately drawn to Will - becomes intent, almost fixated on corrupting Will - because Will is Hannibal's opposite (and you know what they say about opposites, lol). But fragile, reclusive little Will, who suffers so beautifully and wants to do nothing but good with his life, turns out to be a lot stronger and more flexible than Hannibal expects. And, depending on how the series plays out, they each may very well end up being the defining force of the other's life: Hannibal ruins Will from the inside outwards, while Will imprisons Hannibal - outside inwards.

I like their dynamic a lot, and I like the way that it mirrors romance, is kind of the antiparticle of romance. They're like some macabre Rorschach image, and there's a real magnetism in that dynamic. For some people, that magnetism trumps the part where Hannibal's a people-eating psychopath.
