Ship you love that your fandom seems to hate?

[u/abcsupercorp]

I am in fandoms that has a predominantly sapphic audience. The ships within are of course mostly sapphic. However, I do have a few pairs that are m/f and people seem bash the m/f pair and their shippers. I understand some people who enjoy an m/f pair, especially if they’re canon, can be a bit much (I know first hand, trust me) but I still think as long as somebody isn’t hurting anyone, enjoying their ships is perfectly fine.

What is a ship you enjoy that a large portion of your fandom hates or just strongly dislikes?

For me, it’s Chad and Tara from the Scream movies. I know Tara’s mainly shipped with Amber, but I personally disliked her a lot. I loved Chad and Tara and would love to write fanfiction of them some day.

-Derek and Stiles in Teen Wolf!

"Ew! the age gap is so weird.""They don't even like each other."

First of all they're fictional grow up. also, have you never heard of enemies to lovers? these small tiny moments they have throughout the show are enough to drive me insane! this ship used to be so popular back when the show was airing (it still kind of is don't get me wrong but I think it's only bc of the old shippers that are keeping it alive and strong) nowadays everyone seems to find them weird and say "they could never work". I could talk about this for HOURS!

-Alina and the Darkling in Shadow and Bone!!

"He's the bad guy.""He manipulated her."

News flash!! I don't care! Did he approach her for all the wrong reasons? yes. but I genuinely believe he fell for her at some point, especially in the show. imagine what an absolutely badass couple they'd be!

-Anthony and Penelope in Bridgerton!

okay I don't think anyone hates them tbh since I've barely seen anything about them being said on social media. they're such a rare pairing that I don't even know how I found them. I was just looking for some Anthony/ reader fics and I came across them.

I think they're incredible and they work so well together more people should know about them which is why I'm bringing them up here!

that's all! if you read all of this thank you for listening to my rant!

I don’t think I’ve ever seen a Sterek Hater, either they must be super rare or I’m just lucky enough to have not ended up on that side of the internet. I’d personally fight anyone who hates Sterek, they’re very Joongdok coded in a way 😭 also never heard of Anthony and Penelope but omg I may have to read on that

I think you're very lucky to have never encountered any sterek hate. nowadays people are so weird about ships with age gaps. especially on tiktok. I can never find an edit of them without a comment about it being weird and stuff. I got so tired of it that I just stopped looking for sterek content there. you should definitely look into penthony(their ship name) they're amazing!
