More like, the feminists are pissed off by the slash shippers that are straight fangirls with too-tight ~yaoi goggles~ who use slash as an excuse to express their own internalized misogyny by bashing female characters to put together their gay white boy ships. Yes, it is just as fucked up as it looks.

AYRT

No, those aren't the people I'm talking about.

tell me more

I have never seen slash shippers attack female characters in a way that het shippers didn't attack a female character in a rival het ship.

Ginny's treatment by Harmonians
Mai's treatment by Zutarians
Aerith and Tifa by opposing shippers
Naruto and Inuyasha fandoms

Slash shippers have no more internalized misogyny than het shippers. Everyone bashes on the rival characters. Look at Ron Weasley -- he's a white dude and he also gets it from the Harmonians (hence why the trope is called "Ron the Death Eater" -- it's THAT bad).

Character bashing has nothing to do with social justice.

Slash shippers are no more fucked up than het shippers.

Yeah, I feel like in slash fandoms there's more of a tendency to sideline female characters, or turn them into shippers on deck. Bashing is frowned upon because slash shippers already have a complex about their pairings being non-canon (and likely never becoming canon).

On the other hand, tell me more about how Rosa fans treat Martha (and vice versa), or IchiRuki fans and Orihime.

THANK YOU. My god, claiming that only slash shippers throw female characters under the bus is as hilarious as it is completely wrong. ALL shippers do this in the face of rival pairings. Period, the end. I have personal experience shipping het pairings in what you mentioned - in particular, Cloud/Aeris, and I can guarantee that no slash shipper was ever as vicious as the Cloud/Aeris vs Cloud/Tifa ship wars.

Holy shit the Aeris vs. Tifa wars - I shipped Cloud/Tifa but also liked Cloud/Aeris. You can imagine how THAT went down.

More like straight people feel threatened by LGBT representation/interest. Great that you're so concerned with young teen shippers who you know, almost definitely aren't sexist, but are just immaturely dismissing the "competition" as young teens do.

And what do feminists have to do with this? Try asking actual gay people (e.g. me) who cannot fucking wait for the day when two characters with chemistry have a fighting chance at ending up being the endgame despite their genders.

More like het shippers are pissy that so many people ship slash so use feminist rhetoric and accuse straight female slashers of internalised misogyny.

Or maybe I just find the "internalised misogyny" argument really fucking annoying.

Not to mention that, as one anon said above, het shippers attack the female rivals in pretty much the exact same way and male rivals get the same shit from all kinds of shippers... so WHOOP there goes that argument!

Yeah, it all comes down to "You are wrong for shipping what I don't ship.".
