Oh yeah, absolutely didn't want to sound like canon LGTB stuff was a bad thing. Just... what's the opposite of a silver lining?

I've also seen that fandoms with a canon het pairing are often more chill. I mean I've never really seen a Tony/Pepper shipper harass a Tony slash shipper. I think they tend to be more aggro if their ship was ever in question though.

Oh no you didn't come off that way at all, sorry, I was agreeing with you that with getting canon gay comes an increase in fan entitlement in corners that previously wouldn't even think to make those arguments... Which is kind of cool now that I actually think on it(not that fans being shitty to each other is okay but a ship being LGBT isn't a guarantee that it will never ever happen anymore, not that it's even 50% likely in most cases but my bar is very low so yay, lol).

I do think that uncontested canon ships might be more chill but I also think the size of a fandom plays a part too, the less there are to stir up shit the less notice they'll get if they even try, but I've also come across some really nasty canon shippers too so it's a bit of a mixed bag of how lucky you get with your fandom. Ahhhh shipping.

I think that might depend on the fandomn? Some of the meanest, nastiest fans I've ever encountered have been canon het shippers in mine, and they tend to be smugly self-righteous about it, too.
