Folks constantly take issue with loving slash on its own. Sometimes they will claim that it's because slash fans loudly hate female characters for being in the way, but this is a largely baseless strawman that died ten or more years ago. They hide behind this strawman to have an acceptable reason to rag on slash fans who are really just minding their own business. There's also the equally baseless accusation that slash fans are fetishizing gay men. Again slash fans are minding their own business and get comments accusing them of being nasty old straight ladies for writing in their own spaces about men having sex.

So no, there is no response to hate required for people to take issue with someone enjoying something in fandom. It's not just slash either, that was just one example. People in fandom get angry very easily when other people simply like something they don't. "How dare you like things I don't like!" isn't a sarcastic meme for nothing.

All of this.

Well, no.

I love slash. Been writing it for well over a decade.

And when I say slashfans are rightly proverbial for misogyny, I say that from experience.

I’ve had similar experiences, as a longtime slash writer.
