Do you have any examples of people calling others homophobic for breaking up a canon pair for another femslash pairing?

I don't have any examples, but I can see the problem some people would have with replacing one canon lesbian/queer woman in a pairing with a female character who's probably, in most cases, straight in canon. Because then you're still writing about the straight woman in place of the lesbian.

I don't agree with it (ship whatever, I say) but I can see it.

That's kind of a bleh excuse to make, because some 95% of fandoms darling f/f or m/m pairs are generally considered "straight" in canon. A lot of people will claim up and down that they're really bi, could be secretly gay, but they almost always have a love interest of a different gender.

Sure you get popular canon gay/bi characters like Kurt/Blaine and Korra/Asami, but some of the creators will go out of their way to say their characters aren't like that and fandom won't believe them. (See: the OUAT femslashers, the Dean/Castiel fandom, the John/Sherlock fandom...it goes on and on) and even if they don't, more often than not the fandom darling slash or femslash pair will never ever ever get together except in our dreams.
