Does the first point happen for real ? It seems strawmanish. If it does, the only way that it would make sense to call A homophobe is if they gave homophobic reasons for not liking the M/M pairing not if they simply don't ship it.

Maybe if one character is (in canon) part of a m/m and f/f pairing? I heard that some people find that 'problematic'. I as a slash shipper myself don't, bc my ships are never canon compliant so it'd feel wrong for expecting it the other way around.. And I really just don't care..

i have seen people accuse others in general of being 'homophobic' for not shipping their m/m ship of choice, but only a few times but they were that kind of ott shipper stan.

most of the time when i see someone being called homophobic for not liking a m/m(or f/f) ship the accused is actually being homophobic.

Yeah this. I'm in a small fandom where there's one very loud fangirl who keeps going on about all same sex ships being bad because they're "disrespectful to the creators" but strangely has no problem shipping non canon het ships and herself with her husbando fave male character ... which is more than suspicious.

dumbasses on the internet do things that don't "make sense"

spamming SJ buzzwords as ammunition in an old-fashioned vindictive shipwar is just the latest round

it sounds like strawmanning because mob culture is dumb and awful, but it absolutely does happen

I've heard it said in the BBC Sherlock fandom, for people who don't ship Sherlock and John because the argument is that there IS no reason not to ship it unless you're a homophobe. Ridiculous, but hey, that's fandom.

I see a lot of it trending around to the opposite now, like 'I ship this M/F pairing, it's much more ~*equal*~ and feminist, as opposed to m/m (fetishistic) and f/f (you're probably just pairing them off because you don't think they're worthy of the male characters!)'

(Anonymous) 2018-11-10 06:45 pm (UTC)(link)
If someone wants to flame me on the basis of the m/m slash that I write being fetishistic, then all I can say is: GUIL-TEEEE!!!! *waves hands in the air* Lol.

(Anonymous) 2018-11-10 09:52 pm (UTC)(link)
LOL! Like the one who flamed me because the explicit fic with clearly tagged kinks ”was pornographic”. Well, yes. What did they think?

I like your style, anon. <3

Yup, I've seen a lot in my current fandom. If you ship this m/f pairing instead of the popular m/m pairing you're just doing it because you're homophobic and don't want to ship the m/m (even though i don't LIKE one of the characters in the m/m ship). Also if you ship a "gay-coded" character with a girl, then you're homophobic (even though the "evidence" he's gay is filmsy at best).
