Thanks XD

Yeah, when everybody gets over the fact that...uh...1x2 was never going to be canon anyway, but that shouldn't stop people from shipping it and 1xR was so vague in-series that the conundrum is easily solved by writing them as awesome BFFs. No bashing required! It's easy, mmk.

I got involved in the Relena-bashing because I had zero self-esteem around 2000-2001 and didn't think anyone in fandom would talk to me otherwise. But I swear, my experience in GW fandom really made it difficult to get into slash because based on observation, I thought shipping it made you batshit. Yeah, getting harassed off a Treize mailing list for shipping him with Une instead of Zechs didn't help...

Gundam fandom is a hard place to be a girl, period, but it always made me sad how in the one Gunam series where there actually were a lot of female fans, there was SO MUCH WOMAN-BASHING, usually by other female fans. =/ At least the dudes in UC fandom I hung out with largely ignored the ladies versus actively bashing them to so-bad-it-reads-like-parody levels.

I was mostly just like "Oh wow yeah I'M BACKING AWAY FROM YOU CRAZIES" in Wing fandom, but I was fourteen and it was my introduction to Gundam (and one of my first fandoms), so yeah. It's a wonder I stayed and a wonder I gained an appreciation of slash because, man, they scared me. WHAT kicked of a Treize mailing list, THAT IS A CRIME. /favorite forever.

I know, and now when I see it go on in other fandoms, it just makes me sad all over again =/ It was my intro to Gundam, too, but I didn't quite have the confidence to back away from the crazies. Even when I joined in the bashing just to be one of the cool people, I was like "=/ =/ =/" behind my computer.

Yep. Apparently you couldn't be a Treize fan without being a Treize/Zechs fan. It was a rule or something. And yeah, Treize is, was, and will always be my favorite male of the series. One of the few characters I can name who succeeded at world domination, and did it through sheer political cunning.
