I'm not sure why you keep carrying on about how it's not "lesser" to only ship for porn when I already said several times here that I'm not saying it is, and my point here is that it's a mentality that I don't understand. I'm not judging it, I just don't get it. I don't understand why you would choose to ignore all of those other aspects. Or, on the original point, why so many people ignore ships that have a dynamic that would appeal to them if they'd give it a chance because of the characters' genders.

Lastly, I'm always annoyed at the "OMG, porn!" attitude. I'm not saying it's your case, as our interests don't overlap and I don't know what you read, but there's an annoying prudishness in some parts of fandom that just makes me mad.

....Why are you even bringing that up at me when I said above that I write porn? I hate the anti-porn attitude that some people have in fandom, too. Since. You know. I write smutfic and not a whole lot else.

The OOC part... I think it comes from people being too tied into stereotypical roles fed by media. But that's my experience from my corner of fandom.

What I'm talking about here is when people take a ship that is somehow dysfunctional, usually rivalships or hateships but not necessarily, and make it fluffy happy twu wuv. I think a lot of that comes from people only picking the ship because of how they look together, then wanting to see two people have happy sex, so they strip out everything that makes the relationship between the characters what it is.

I was just replying to your comment. In fact, I said it's cool you corrected your previous comment on how sad certain forms of shipping are.

I do understand why some people are only into m/m or m/f or f/f and it's not only for the porn. Sometimes characters/ships don't speak to you and gender may be one of the factors.

I don't see much of the "dysfunctional couple turned into fluff" because FrUK writers are quite good and USUK bends easily into fluff and those are the ships I read enough to have an opinion.
