Re: Inspired by #1 - What is your most controversial ship?

[(Anonymous)]

AYRT

I don't remember that, because I never came across it. I wasn't a Hermione/Anyone shipper, and when I had a little time to read HP forum content, I went straight for what people had thought of key scenes in the book, or character analyses for the characters I enjoyed and wanted to understand better.

Part of what I'm realizing in retrospect (because we're talking ... I don't think this is something I'd have questioned on my own) is that being on what I thought of back then as just a very active, thriving internet community mostly involved one, sometimes two large sites, whose mods were open supporters of Ron/Hermione. I wasn't there for the ship, but by not rejecting the moderator's biases and going looking until I found some other place that didn't censor what the Sugarquill mods termed "Weasley-bashing," I guess I inadvertently exposed myself to a lot of Ron/Hermione in passing, and it was obnoxious to me.

The Harry/Hermione shippers I've encountered since still seem hurt by what other fans said to them and about them during that ship war. I'm taking into account what you said, or trying, but I don't think they're equally at fault, because I've never seen anyone admit to having shipped Ron/Hermione with the concern that strangers are going to come attack them because of it. And I see that over and over with Harry/Hermione fans.

I don't think there's such a thing as "more moral" or "less moral" ships, and detest when people come up with convoluted, petty reasons for looking down on each other. What I meant to say was that R/Hr looks at least as vulnerable to criticism to me as the ships I watched lots of people point at and denigrate, but I'm sorry that what I actually said was disrespectful.
