I have no idea what you're saying what about. It's absolute nonsense to say love isn't platonic simply because it is hetero.

Because discriminating against 90% of the population is nothing to be offended about right?

No need to be offended by facts

Okay guys and gals, maybe get a room and work off that tension? 
 

I am not going to play babysitter on this topic. If someone says they value heterosexual fandom pairings more, fine. Not heterosexual fandom more fine. In the real world, fine. 
 

Getting pissed off at that and tattling is childish. I’m not going to play the trigger and snowflake game with any side of this. If you can’t tell the difference between saying you like gay shipping more, or it’s more valued and I hate gays/straights then this is a you problem. 
 

Also if I get one more crybaby report I’m sending you my optometrist bill for the muscle strain from my eyes rolling too much.

Because it's no longer taboo, so people are still slapping rainbows on anything that moves. There's no problem with gay ships, but it can get really out of hand sometimes when people make every single character in a show or movie gay.

I don't really know why other people like them so much, but I've always been a shipper and in some series, characters just have the kind of chemistry that makes me want to see them in an actual romantic relationship. Ever since I watched K-ON, that's mostly been girl-girl pairings. I guess it's partially because I myself am a straight male, so I find it quite easy to see attractive traits in girls. That also makes it easier for me to write a story in which the characters are believably attracted to each other.
