Date: 2018-08-10 02:07 am (UTC)I'm not a fan of Jasper/Peridot or Jasper/Lapis either, even if I feel bad for the wank the latter automatically gets. But mostly I think I just got tired of this entire corner of shipping. I like all three characters but I don't want to hear about them together anymore. Ever.

Date: 2018-08-10 02:56 am (UTC)Their breakup was actually the most interesting thing about the ship, it brought so many interesting issues to the surface, but I've just been too turned off the ship for too long to want to see those issues explored in a shippy way.

Date: 2018-08-10 02:58 am (UTC)I can see thier point, though? I'm not saying this should be a positivity-only meme, but this early in the game, a post like this is only inviting trolling and the type of discourse that's going to give this meme a bad name.
Re: Worst Femslash Ships - MODS
Date: 2018-08-10 03:04 am (UTC)So far all the replies to this thread have been perfectly tame, and discussion-not-discourse-provoking.
This is not a dare for someone to demonstrate otherwise, btw. Just, you know. Pointing out that so far the only wank in this thread is about whether it should exist, not the people actually answering the question.

Date: 2018-08-10 09:09 am (UTC)Yeah, I have a NOTP or two, and even entire styles or genres of femslash that don't do it for me, but right now I'd much rather talk about what I love.
(And then there was that time when I rewatched a canon and my hueg giant NOTP (one specific canon f/f pairing where fandom and I disagreed strongly about characterization) turned out to be fairly palatable on second viewing now that I knew where the plot was headed? So that's dampened my ardor for femslash NOTP hateboner stroking in general.)

Date: 2018-08-11 12:10 am (UTC)Personally, I would suggest giving this thread a title like "NOTPs" or "Femslash You Don't Like" in future posts.

Date: 2018-08-10 10:55 am (UTC)Yes, Xena and Gabrielle are soulmates, yes, they are always going to have each others backs and yes, the show provided some lovely soft caring moments between but that's not all they were. They disagreed with each other, failed to communicate their problems and fought over things big and small. I want the edges as well. There's no fun in just having the moments of complete agreement knowing this is right if they haven't had to work to get there.
