103. I'm not into slash myself, so I'm just going to try and imagine being one for a second, but when it comes to slash shipping, since it's a fantasy for the individual shipper I think they don't want other females to get in the way of their ship because it's 'hot' when there's two guys involved in the relationship, like when men fantisize about lesbians. In one respect you could look at that and say, oh now they have things like yaoi in the market which cater to fulfilling a female audiences fantasy. But it sounds like you're talking about shipping in a fandom sense where it isn't necessarily canon for the two characters to be together but the slashers ship it anyway. Personally, I don't really understand the rampant hate on
the female characters either, especially to the ones who try to assert themselves. But I'm guessing they're just trying to keep their fantasy 'pure'.

For the real world arguement:
But I think you have highlighted something significant in that there is still some competitiveness amoung women between other women that stems from transitioning ideas on the role of their gender. I think that it's still being fleshed out and women struggle with each other as well as with men in defining that role.

That being said, I personally tend to feel more at ease around guys that like nerdy stuff like video games and comics, etc. I don't know women in rl that love those things so I end up making friends with guys instead. Believe me, if I found rl women out there that loved those things and we got along well enough to be friends I would be so glad to do so. I have friends that are girls but I'm just not that close to them. Believe me, I don't think of myself as being 'cool' or 'special' because of it.

131. lol omg how many were there, tell me.

136. Hey man if Wall-e and Eve can fall in love, what's wrong with that?

165. 'Damn I hate him so much I really hope he dies.' Sorry but I lol'd. I don't hate or like him either way but yeah he's kinda just blah...

168. Wow, I never thought of it that way before....I'm going to remember this 'cause I die like hundreds of times when I play Zelda games. XD I won't feel like a traitor to his character but I might think, 'wow, if he were on his own he'd solve this puzzle much faster'. XDDD

103. You are so lucky to have nerdy male friends that respect you.

Almost every time I meet a male geek that shares my interests they talk down to me and shunt me aside, because stupid girls are unworthy to like the same things they do.

If I could find anyone of either gender that shared my interest and was willing to accept me, I'd be all over that.
