#Simone x Daphne was my first f/f ship of the show

I’m watching the alternate reality episode of Switched At Birth and Bay still meeting Emmett/them liking each other makes me think Daphne x Emmett will never happen 😭💔

“someone head canoning a character as queer doesn’t take away from your favorite ship” right it's definitely not a pattern to sideline female protag because of an imaginary ship between two straight men, it NEVER happens

If its an “imaginary ship between two straight men” then in the narrative text the central couple is a heterosexual m/f relationship. If you get the actual canon endgame ship why does it matter what other people hc? The book/show/movie/game/ect creators agrees with you.

Is the problem that you believe EVERYONE must think as you do or is the problem that you don’t even want the sheer mention of queerness in your fandom? If its the first-get a reality check. If its the second-check your prejudices.

And because you are referring to the bisexual Ben conversation we’ve been having here for a few days a reminder that I am a bi!Ben x Sophie fan literally no where in my post did I talk about changing Sophie’s existence. I don’t know how many times I can define bisexuality to this fandom…

Also this fandom DID sideline their titular female protagonist in Daphne during season one. And last I checked no one was really shipping Simon with another man. So don’t hide your internalized homophobia behind coopted feminist ideals. Unfounded greater preference for male characters in fandom spaces is a problematic issue rooted in internalized misogyny not from people reading queerness into a story.

​Also considering that the only man Benedict is really being shipped with right now is Henry if thats the ship of “2 straight men” that you think is causing people to dismiss Sophie then a reminder that Henry is gay…so we’re saying the quiet part out loud now?

Tldr : don’t be homophobic.
