Admittedly, I haven't seen too many shippers with those attitudes myself, but to my understanding, people like that are still out there? Maybe they're just a lot rarer nowadays (back in '05 to '08 or so, when I lurked on fanficrants, IIRC there were a LOT of posts about authors whose attitudes were like the negative ones you described) and/or aren't visible for long.

Listen, I'm not saying the creeps don't exist (although I think you're right, they're getting rarer -- probably because of overall cultural shifts). Just that you can't identify a creep based solely on "they write/draw/read/like X/Y." And that kind of accusation is the rallying cry of the people who identify as "anti shippers" -- which have unfortunately been getting more *common* in recent years.
