All the slashers seem to go for Draco/Harry for some reason. There is more hate and stalking there so I suppose they prefer drama. But everyone always has that as Ron/Hermione main complaint.

Shipping is strange

[(Anonymous)]

I think it's because a large number of people in fandom, if not half, if not most, are straight or straight leaning, so fucked up dynamics in het hits too close to home.

[(Anonymous)]

Also I just remembered Buffy and Spike and other het dramatic couples so scratch that, what you said: shipping is weird.

[(Anonymous)]

Rivals/hateships is a shipping dynamic as old as time. How is that 'strange' when it's the norm?

People like it when their ships butt heads--whether on a small scale or a much larger one. It's the getting past the parts of the other person that are distasteful that is half the fun.

Uhm I was going for the why is it bad with one couple and not with the other. Not rival shipping is weird.

[(Anonymous)]

Because Hermione and Ron are just friends (and later lovers) that bicker and Draco and Harry are two rivals who hate the shit out of each other.

Also, Draco/Harry, when nicely done imo, is a pairing about deconstructing the canon and showing that they are just different sides of the same coin. The dynamics between the two ships are not comparable, totally different, although wank between shippers is never justifiable and you could be shipping Harry with the Whomping Willow for all I cared.

Just yeah ... it's not that bickering is something to be scorned in one pairing and something that people like in the other it's just ... it's simply just not the same type of bickering.

Hermione and Ron act like 'a married couple' which is a trope some people like and others really dislike whereas Draco and Harry are always at each other's throat because both represent something that the other doesn't like (different values, different houses, different sides of the war, etc. etc.)

Different levels of dignety, Different amounts of cowardice, different abillitty to not do whatever everyone else is doing, different in the way they hold grudges, different amounts of empathie

[(Anonymous)]

Probably why I liked R/Hr, too. (I'm a H/D shipper.. :D)
