I'm with you on how I do ships and about there being a lot in this fandom that I'm not into. Have people acted judgey to you about it or is it just a gut feeling? I never got the sense that I was being judged for just ignoring the ships I don't care for, so as long as you don't talk about your dislike for a ship I think you're fine?

(What I am worried about is that eventually someone will notice I don't ship KiyoYachi and judge me for that, because in some of my other fandoms not shipping the one possible femslash ship means you're a misogynist. But you ship it so you're probably fine there too...)

Yeah, I've been judged on it before, in one of those surprisingly "wtf?" kind of ways. I had just mentioned in a fandom space that I feel uncomfortable with all the random explicit art of non-OTPs that people post and so when I search tumblr I usually do it by OTP tags, and that got some serious "oommgggg ur such a BABY wtf it's just fiction IGNORE IT" type of stuff, when in reality that's...exactly what I was doing? Like I don't go on other people's tags and be like "I HATE [insert couple here]", I'm not trolley like that at all. I just filter my results so I have the least likely chance to look at explicit stuff I don't wanna see because it's MY fandom experience and MY tumblr.

Some people just get really weird if you're an OTP shipper though. :/

That sounds like like they assumed you were judging them for not caring about OTPs and got defensive. Lots of people act like if you say "This is how I prefer to fandom" it means "Everyone who prefers to fandom differently from me is WRONG." They're the childish ones.

This is likely a difference with how people perceive posts on tumblr. For you, you're complaining in a private space. For other people, you're getting up on the village soapbox to shout. Part and parcel of the medium unfortunately... though I'm so thankful for the ability to f-lock posts now.

Not OP, but in haikyuu fandom there is this predominant attitude that EVERYONE ships every character in every possible ship available.

So the people who have very defined ships are kind of ostracized from the party or met with confusion.

Another thing is that it's not uncommon for fics labeled as one ship to suddenly turn into another popular or crack ship for one character or even several.

I have found more cheating or sleeping around with mutiple characters fics in this fandom than I have in any other
