saathi1013:destinationtoast:Which are the biggest ‘ships in fandom? On Monday, The Daily Dot posed this question. Today, I have answers about the most common relationships on AO3. (with a healthy dose of caveats, as usual!) Read More…what was I saying about ship inequality as re: gender and race (even when there are cool women and PoC in canon), and fandoms with white dudeslash potential being more popular on the whole as re:fanwork production than shows with a lot of inclusivity?Yeah, that.NUMBERS, YA’LL.Wow wow wow wow. The very fact that Blaine/Kurt from Glee is #10, and no other Glee ship even made the list, when (1) Blaine/Kurt definitely don’t get the most canonical exposure or investment on that show (2) Blaine/Kurt happened on screen and even got a bit boring and (3) the show also has a canonical F/F couple that despite being hotter than anything else on the show doesn’t even show up on the list, says it all. I’ve also read your meta on slash and fetishization and I’m certain that’s relevant here as well… -- source link
