      I feel like that "Vox" article about "Supernatural" tried to talk about fandoms and shipping along a liberal/conservative axis and it's like, way too primal and weird for that.

      People don't come up with elaborate conspiracy theories for why the boys from "One Direction" have coded tattoos because of an earnest struggle for inclusivity and representation, is all I'm saying.

      Like the article pit killing of female characters as "conservative" against the fanbase of "geeky, passionate women" as "progressive", but I'm just watching a video about how those same fans hated those female characters for getting in the way of the shipping.pic.twitter.com/Tyzd8kvJxO

      To be clear I have not seen the show. And I don't really...understand shipping culture, like, at all. But it seems to tap into something powerful and I doubt it really maps onto normal aesthetic or political ideas.

          My go-to example is, apparently some people honestly watch "The Flash" rooting for Barry and Caitlin to get together, even though they have so little interaction those fans have to make up dialogue between them. But they do and have whole accounts posting them. Why? I don't know.

          I suppose it can be a way of exploring character archetypes, this is one of Sarah Z's theories in these videos. But IDK it seems to go farther than that.

          Whether or not you agree about Barry/Iris, this was maybe Sarah Z's most incisive point, that shipping can fill the vacuum left by desultory and inorganic "canon" romances.https://twitter.com/TodDidier/status/1333628691885088771?s=19 …

          Anyway my point was more that you're right and actor dynamics and shoe horned plotlines often have more to do with this. Barry-Caitlin is silly, but it's a result of the show pushing a different romance that, especially early on, didn't feel earned or organic.

          I do think a lot of pop and prestige culture these days is pretty bad at romance and relationships. I don't know if it was ever any better...

          Yeah and conversely TV shows can be very reluctant to upset character/ensemble dynamics that "work".https://twitter.com/sleavitt1/status/1333630347343523840?s=19 …

          The problem is in most films the romances needs to be folded into a very binary sort of problem that can be “solved” by the end of the movie, which isn’t really how most relationships in real life work

          I mean let’s not forget the significant number of people who really pushed a Steve Rogers/Bucky Barnes ship in the MCU.

          Anyway, of course people can relate to art/entertainment in any number of ways. But even if you're not interested in shipping culture...it's interested in you, because the people making your favorite shows are navigating around it in the cultural space.

          I assume even on "Yellowstone" there are fan accounts shipping...Kevin Costner and the Yellowstone geyser itself? IDK I don't watch that show.

          My vague understanding is that some of it (*some*) is about straight women liking to imagine two men making out?

          The gender-reversed situation is a huge cultural trope, so no need to do it in marginal spaces like AO3.
