Aren't people starting to chafe yet?!
Sometimes, the foes of fandom_wank complain that we're partisan about very important issues like GM foods, women's right to choice and Harry Potter shipping. I would like to hope that this entry proves them WRONG!!!!!
What else could it be? Harmonian v. Orange Crush shipping wank. What a wonderful world we live in.
Spilled Ink went and posted a H/G essay over at the LJ comm harry_and_ginny, the gist of which can be summed up in this quote:
For starters, let's talk Harry and Hermione. Oh, how those two names together with a little "/" between them makes my skin crawl.
And it all goes downhill from there. Some highlights:
... while I may not like Harry/Hermione, Harry/Ginny is beginning to lose it's originality now that it's actually canon... Also... Just shut up man. Crack is good, in fandoms anyway. And frankly, yeah, there WERE HarryHermione moments, even if you're too narrowminded to see that. Get over it, seriously.

You guys have said pretty mean things.
Not all H/Hr shippers are 13.
The things you said hurt.
I'm not looking for trouble.
Some one @ HarryHermione brought up this essay.
Why can't everyone get along?
Not peacefully. but can't we try or something?
And the JKR bashing didn't happen until AFTER HBP when most of this started.
Lots of people have different views.
Respect it.
Bashing other ships is basically a different from of racism- lets call it "shipism."
Don't call us "losers" because you won".
Won at what?
JKR did the easy way instead of what was right.
Go on and laugh at me.
Lots on H/Hr shippers have seen R/Hr, but thought it was immature and pointless.
There really isn't that much H/G in the books 1,3,and 4. 5 is hardly useable for any "moments" or whatever you say.
Don't make anything up because you know it's true.
And that dumb "raging monster in his chest"?
Is.
Utter.
Bull.
Shit.

Third of all... for all of you who think she wrote the romance poorly... then why dont you go out, write an award winning best seller series, and then you have the right to criticize her writing. I mean, freedom of opinion yes, by all means, say you didtn like it... say you dont like who she paired or how she paired them... but I think its disgusting that you will just blatantly say that it was poorly written. I hardly believe any of you have enough experience or knowledge on the subject to deem a proffessional writers work, "poorly written."
