i think shipping is neat because it lets you explore your own wants and needs in an ideal relationship by, in a sense, living vicariously through fictional characters and experiencing secondhand romance

so when ppl are like "my problematic ships dont reflect me irl!" im like. hm

in particular i find it really lovely that gay people can express themselves through gay ships in a world full of straight people that often doesn& #39;t recognize them otherwise

so if you& #39;re introducing other things like age gaps and incest into the mix, it& #39;s like... wh... my guy

in an ideal world, "pro-ship" would mean you support people being their most embarrassingly earnest selves with romantic content, cringe be damned. hell be horny as fuck if you want as long as you& #39;re not exposing any minors to it or anything
but instead it means "i like incest"https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="😐" title="Neutrales Gesicht" aria-label="Emoji: Neutrales Gesicht">
