I've seen people say "if you don't ship x you're homophobic!" for both Dean/Castiel and Sherlock/John.

Didn't we have a secret about a month ago about how someone only started shipping Holmes and Watson in Elementary and being scared that, because s/he didn't ship them in BBC or the Ritchie movies that accusations of homophobia would come up?

What are you, the secret keeper? You've brought up old secrets like two or three times today. LET IT GO.

Deny, deny, deny. It's what happened when Castiel was macking on a lady demon.

Oh, please tell me Meg-bashing hadn't become a thing. I thought she was the one SN female (apart from Ellen) who wasn't universally picked-on.

(Moot point now, of course, because fuck.)

[Spoilers for Goodbye, Stranger]

The last episode of spn generated a wonderful push of Meg-centric gifs, graphics, and fanart.

Unfortunately, though, Meg bashing has been around in various shades for a while. And her death did not let it up.

A collection.

I knew I shouldn't have clicked. Gaaah.

Her death is bothering me even more than those of characters I've liked better, because I had such high hopes for a character who'd been central from near the beginning being an important player as the show winds down.

Here's the thing - I have no problem with Sam, Dean, or Cas, or, in theory, the romantic or platonic relationships between any of them.

But on the show itself, any time a situation is paired down to those three (or any two of them), it becomes a repetitive mess of secrets and lies and animosity and resentment and temporary sweetness that you can't trust because they're going to be back at each others' throats by the next episode.

Amid the steaming pile of WTFery, craziness, and over the topness there are two shit stained kernels of "you may have a point"s. Namely that the queer-baiting without follow through can be super-distasteful. I only made it to Season 5 and I was fed up with it. And that with those two characters, if the being "Castiel" had possessed a woman (which if I recall did happen briefly in one episode) then they in all likely would have had a romantic liaison. And then just as likely gotten boo'd off the stage as seems to happen with every other character.

Although seriously. Has something changed on this show recently to make people think they would actually go through with something like that? I mean I'll hope for a long shot "never gonna happen" pair, but my expectations are so low in the dirt you'd need a spelunking kit to find them.

Hopefully not with that particular woman, since she was a preteen girl.

Not that that stops some fanfic writers. Dammit.

Please accept my hearty "I agree!" sentiments.

I still wonder what the hell is wrong with some fans who really believe the show would ever make either of it's very hetrosexual lead characters gay (or bi, but I a cynical enough to also believe that they show writers don't understand bisexuality). I mean, 8 seasons of Dean Winchester the Manwhore? Four seasons now of his and Cas's relationship not going beyond friendship?

Umm... I've been called cynical before, but my cynical side doesn't even get any air time on this matter because it's blatantly obvious they won't make Destiel canon. Not the way shippers want it (with face-sucking and full-on porn at least).

Actually, my cynical side sits back and says that I don't want it canon because I don't think the writers would get it right (see above bit about bisexuality). Leave the slash to fanfic, where it gets treated right.

Possible spoiler for Sherlock 3x01 and Holmes in general if you haven't read it yet

Write a complain letter to the BBC?

But nah. The title of 3x01 is out already and if we go with canon continuity, there's no Mary any more.

Well, personally, I hope they solve the ship war with polyamory, but that's kind of always my response to ship wars.

Personal response aside, what the rabid section will do is deny/character bash, what the saner section will do is consider their shipping AU or have the marriage end in a way that isn't bashing-flavored.

I've seen it for Jared/Jensen.

Yes, the real life actor people. Said to actual queer folks. Fandom is mad.

(Anonymous) 2013-03-23 11:47 pm (UTC)(link)
God, I used to be a J2 shipper, but it was more "heh, the fics amuse me." not *tinhatter Danneel is a bitch/beard so Jensen can't love Jared* Yes, I have seen her twitter mentions.

I do not get it. There is a line, and some people just do not respect it.

CrissColfer (Darren Criss and Chris Colfer) shippers are really scary. The amount of hate/death threats they send to Darren's girlfriend is quite frightening. Sorry, about the rant, I just feel like people should keep the hate to themselves.

Especially after meeting Mia, who is god honest, the sweetest human being I have ever met. Why would people want to be mean to her?

Wow, just read through what I said, I basically said the same thing 50 different ways. "I do not understand fandom's obsession with destroying the fourth wall and being mean to the rl significant other of their desire."

Oh god yes the fourth wall must be held up at all times. I'm seriously annoyed whenever people bring up character ships to the actors but the idea of anyone mentioning RPS to them just baffles me.

Tin hatters in general do to. These are real people! You DO NOT KNOW THEM no matter how many interviews you've watched/cons you have been to.

I got this back in the days of Gundam Wing when I decided Noin/Treize would be an interesting dynamic. o.O
