Step right up and get yourself a ticket to watch the Oppression Olympics, everyone!

[mekkio]

How much does a ticket cost?

[kaijinscendre]

Ah. Fandom Oppression Olympics. It is like opressionception.

People can complain about the slim chances of their pairing all they want (as long as they are not being hateful).

I don't care if it is an interracial slash pairing or a heterosexual white pairing. Loving a pairing and knowing it is unlikely to happen is disappointing.

[(Anonymous)]

It is both disappointing, and also not a major social justice issue.

(Agree with everything in your post)

[(Anonymous)]

Why does it matter if it's not canon? Honestly, some shippers have no sticking power. If you love your ship, it being canon is irrelevant, indeed I'd argue its non canonicity is the whole point.

BAWWWWWWW. CRY SOME MORE.

6/10

[(Anonymous)]

I wonder if people display as much glee telling fans of the het pairing it will never happen in canon as the people telling fans of the slash pairing do.

[deaalmon]

They do.

[(Anonymous)]

Depends on the ship.

[(Anonymous)]

I wonder why anyone cares about it "happening in canon". As if it somehow validates you. Can't you ship unless the showrunners do? Pretty poor shipping if you ask me.

Secret 6 - Shipping, race, sexual orientation

Yes, it sucks that your interracial (heterosexual) ship probably won't become canon thanks to possibly racist writers but because it's heterosexual there's at least a CHANCE, however small it may be. Try shipping one of those same characters in a pairing that's not only interracial but ALSO slash. It has ZERO chance of ever happening. Stop whining about how unfair it is that your pairing (probably) won't become canon to people whose One True Pairing has even less of a chance of happening than yours does.

Secret because: Shippers of the heterosexual pairing far outnumber those of the slash one. No way am I saying this non-anonymously.

[(Anonymous)]

Have you tried some British tv? There's plenty of both interracial and slash canon pairings.

[(Anonymous)]

I'm not causing trouble, but I am curious - can you name canon same sex pairings, aside from Jack/Ianto and the Lizard Lady/her girlfriend from Doctor Who?

[bringreligiontothewamwams]

Too badly expressed to be interesting.

AHAHAHAHAHA

[forgottenjester]

You're acting like an idiot.



BAW OTHER PEOPLE CAN'T BE SAD BECAUSE I HAVE IT WORSE FROM MY POINT OF VIEW!!!

That stance has never made any sense. It's like telling someone who's pet has died to stop being sad because you lost your grandma. Like. Wut. Grow up.

Repeat after me

[elephantinegrace]

YOU'RE NOT A MORE LEGITIMATE FAN BECAUSE YOUR SHIP IS CANON!

THE CHANCES OF A SHIP BECOMING CANON DOES NOT MAKE IT BETTER OR WORSE!

Sorry I'm not sorry for yelling.

4/10... better luck next time

[atelierlune]

I'd be willing to disagree. I feel like there are more canon gay couples in TV right now than interracial ones. No, I don't have facts to back that up an someone probably knows better. I don't watch that much TV, that's just the impression that I get.

My opreshion is worse than your opreshion!

[cbrachyrhynchos]

It's shipping, 9/10 it's missing the fucking point of the work, and half of the rest is toxic tin-hatting and ship wars.

[mimi-sardinia.livejournal.com]

The good thing about knowing you ship a pairing that has no chance of ever becoming canon is that you can stop even worrying about the canon question.

I wonder how much canon shippers or would-be canon shippers ruin their own fannish experience because they're all biting their nails hoping their ship will be ~validated~ by canon.

[(Anonymous)]

How about ALL of you shut the fuck up and stop whining. It's people like you who are ruining one fandom after the other for those that are actually capable of getting along with ship and let ship.
