I know i should just shut up and say let people ship what people want to ship, but these are the people that make it easy for people to say slash is fetishization of homosexual couples.

Re: op

Yep. I know there are tons of gay men in Sterek fandom, so I don't think every sterek shipper is fetishizing. And actually I tend to notice they are the opposite, they aren't really fandom hoppers.

But even after so many people telling them that shipping a slash ship doesn't make you discriminated against, marginilaize, I still see posts ranting about some slight or other nearly every day on tumblr.

Today it was this:
"You may think you’re being cute, but you’re not. Sterek fans have said over and over and OVER again that what we see in Derek and Stiles is the potential for a really epic relationship. Their personalities and experiences make for a truly incredible mix that we want to watch happen. It’s not all about sex, so maybe bring your own mind out of the gutter, because for every PWP fanfic out there, there are tons more with amazing development and trust building.

As for the “slim chances” slight, you don’t know that. There is *nothing* but gender standing in the way of this relationship and I have faith that’s a hurdle that will be overcome.

The Sterek fandom is *far* from being just “young women.” This is a fandom of extreme diversity across ALL dimensions, including age and gender. This pairing has reached everyone.

Stop using stereotypes and demeaning slights to de-legitimize and stigmatize us. We won’t stand for it."

Oh god I am so sorry for that typo.

DA. Whoo, boy. You'd think that some actually important issue was the subject of that rant.

Re: op

ayrt

Yeah i agree with the rant, to an extent.

The reasons i ship sterek is because they have chemistry (they make these FACES at each other for goodness sake) but also because Stiles is super loyal, and someone that loyal is someone i could see Derek ending up with. PLUS someone who knows about hunters & werewolves. But also I'd like to see him trust a human again (i don't think he has much trust for humans)

So yay romance, but also just yay for some trust & friendship too.

Its really NOT about the sex for lots of people.

but then there are some where it clearly is so...

Oh yeah I don't see anything wrong with the rant where it's about not just being interested in sex. But then they go on about being "de-legitimized" and having slights thrown at them and I just can't comprehend any further.

That was in response to these quotes in an MTV article, btw:
“While the likelihood of ever witnessing sexytime between Derek/Stiles is pretty slim”
“It’s a wonder Sterek and a legion of young women don’t take over the entire world”

I don't even see how a legion of women taking over the entire world is a slight anyway, that sounds pretty awesome.

Re: op

[(Anonymous)]

right? people on tumblr seem to always take everything a step too far for me. Which makes me sad because if they didn't come across as slightly overreactive, they could do some real good.

I think part of it is that you've just never really seen a non-canon homosexual relationship become canon (or even many just be canon in a non-issues show) and it'd be really great to FINALLY see a will-they-won't-they be two guys or girls. Or at the very least not assuming straightness

But yeah legions of women taking over the world would be super! :D
