Inspired by some of the discussion yesterday.

I'm not sure what pairings are considered controversial. I've just been playing with my dolls in a quiet corner of the fandom sandbox.

If I've learned anything from modern toxic fandom - anything can be a controversial pairing if you put enough imagination into an argument.

Probably partially controversial since I do like Spock/Kirk, but only in the AOS movies instead of TOS.

Oh man, other way around for me. I do ship Spock/Kirk in TOS, but in AOS I ship McCoy/Kirk.

Same here!

Well. I don't mind the TOS ship, but it's the AOS ship I actively seek out fic and art for.

What counts as controversial these days? There are always people who think it is wrong to like villains and to ship them. But I'm not sure that makes those ships controversial per say.

Controversial for your fandom.

Ah, okay. It really depends on what part of the fandom you are talking about. On Tumblr, nothing is controversial in the Tolkien fandom. In some of the places where they don't ship at all and just do serious stuff, anything villain, related, or even m/m is probably controversial. Heck, I've heard places where shipping characters who are married with others is controversial.

Daddy Kink and/or Teacher Student pairings. Some favorites include Endeavor/Hawks, Bakugo/Aizawa, Gojo/Megumi, Zuko/Hakoda.

Also into older man/younger woman. Especially Sansa with Stannis, Oberyn, or Tywin (oddly I hate her with Baelish or the Hound).

Estinien/Alphinaud

I really tried not shipping it because the age difference makes me uncomfortable but the game is making it so hard not to - I just got to the Shadowbringers patches.

I tend to enjoy age gap ships, and I've heard this one brought up a few times before. However, I don't game. I think the last game I played was Banjo Kazooie on N64, in 1999.

Do you think this ship is the kind of thing a person could potentially get into without playing any of the games, understanding gameplay, or reading a novel's worth of fandom wiki? (I'd be okay with reading some fandom wiki, but not like a strenuous amount.)

I respect the answer either way, I'm just curious whether it's something I could potentially get into.

...I mean Alphi is clearly a replacement for Estinien's dead brother but you do you.

Starker has been my OTP for around five years now. It's definitely the most controversial ship I've ever had. I tend to pass on fics that involve underage/abuse, but I also don't GAF if other people are into the darker stuff.

I also ship Keero, which is a small pairing, but it's controversial within the Andor fandom for...uh, a complex array of reasons, lol.

Thank you for getting me into that pairing. I wouldn't have checked it out if it wasn't for you. /New-ish Starker shipper

Ahh, thank you for letting me know that I influenced you to get into this ship! That makes me really happy. :D

I ship a lot of hero x sidekick and villain x sidekick.
