Comment on Problematic ships project. by ErinPtah
I've been proposing to do something like this for a while, which I called along the lines of "Piss Off Tumblr Month." In which I draw something fluffy/sexy and list the reason why anti-shippers attack me for said ship (which ranges from "pedophiliac" and "promotes abuse" to "Alice x Bob shippers feel Alice is entitled to Bob and insist that it's canon, how disgusting" and "heteronormative." There truly is no such thing as a safe non-problematic ship on tumblr. Anyway, I like this challenge. 
I like to think of it as supporting shippers rather than annoying haters. If anything, you want the haters to get more chill.
But yeah, it would be great if more artists joined in! And by all means, defend yourself, especially against some of what passes for "logic" on Tumblr. (Latest thing I saw was "if you like the idea of characters who are minors getting together as adults, that's pedophilic." So much for human biology 101.)

Your approach is more peaceful, haha. XD I know trolling will just make them mad, so it's more of a fantasy... it's hard to keep a cool head in an insane situation like this. :/

Shipping older versions of the characters is still pedophilia, and it's not your 'Get-Out-of-Jail-Free' card to project your sick fantasies." O HAI TUMBLR'S UNDERTALE FANDOM

I wonder, how many canons are "sick fantasies" by that standard? Everything from the Lion King to Harry Potter to Sailor Moon to the Little House books involves the horrible deviant knowledge that...children will often grow up into sex-having adults.
