"You want to make everything LGBT" "They are married and with children" "They're enemies/rivals, wth?" "They don't see each other like that" "They are just friends" "They are like brothers/sisters" "They are in love with another person" "X character is straight" "Why can't two girls/two boys be friends?"

Those are only a few examples of comments people has done about shipping two girls/two boys together. And I'm so tired of reading again and again and again the same things. I'm not gonna lie, I tried to hold back my anger towards this topic, but I need to talk about this to feel better.

First, about the "You want to make everything LGBT". No, no. That's not true. We don't want to make everything LGBT. You are the one who wants to make everything straight. In every single show/movie I've watched there is at least one straight couple (most of the times there is more than one). And you know how many LGBT ships are in the same show? Yes? Exactly. Zero. One or two if the show is good enough to be inclusive. So please, stop with the "You want to make everything LGBT" argument because it's stupid and it makes no sense.

Secondly, about the "They are married and with children". So? What does that mean to you? Why does that matter? Last time I checked, divorce existed. And there are straight couples that divorced in real life, so I don't see a problem if the straight couples divorces in the show/movie. Is it a big deal in reality? No. Or you just don't like the "breaking up because falling in love with someone of the same sex" thing? Huh?

In third place, the "They're enemies/rivals". Ever heard about the enemies/rivals to lovers trope? And about the redemption/corruption arc? Because those are ways a ship like that can happen. And last time I checked, people don't care about the "enemy/rival" thing if the ship is straight. No one cared about the "enemies to lovers" in books like Shadow and Bone, Folk of the Air, Shatter Me or others. So that only matters if the ship is LGBT or what?

"They don't see each other like that". Well. You always saw your lover as your lover? Or first it was your rival, your friend, or someone who wasn't even in your inner circle? You saw them and you inmediatly became lovers or what? Because two characters can be rivals, friends, or people who don't know each other at first and then learn to love each other. Just. Exactly. Like. A. Straight. Couple. So, again, this is a dumb argument.

"They are just friends". Just like I said in the previous point, a boy/boy or girl/girl friendship can turn into love just like a boy/girl friendship can.

"They are like brothers/sisters". Let me ask you a question. They canonically said "I see you as a sister/as a brother"? Because if they didn't, you're just asuming things. You're just assuming they see each other as sisters/brothers because you don't bear them seeing each other romantically.

"They are in love with another person". Agaaaain. Were you always in love with one person? Did you marry the first person you loved or what? Or you liked/loved people until you found the person you actually wanted to be by your side forever? And just as you can fall in love with someone, you can stop loving them. So once again, this argument makes no sense.

"X character is straight". Well. I myself thought I was straight. My best female friend thought she was straight herself. My two best male friends thought they were straight themselves. And I ended up being pansexual, my best female friend turned out to be bisexual, and my two best male friends turned out to be bisexual/gay. Being married to a woman being a man or being married to a man being a woman doesn't mean they're straight. They could realize they are not straight but bisexual. Or pansexual. Or ace. Or whatever you want. But it's not something that cannot change. It's not something written in stone.

"Why can't two girls/two boys be friends?". And why a girl and a boy can't be just friends? Because almost every show has a main straight canon couple. Westallen, Olicity (The Flash, Arrow), Charles/Moira, Peter/MJ (Marvel), Darklina (Shadow and Bone), Stydia, Scallison (Teen Wolf), Deckerstar (Lucifer TV), Hinny (Harry Potter), Mileven (Stranger Things), Anidala, Obitine (Star Wars), Leorai, Apriltello (TMNT 2012)... And I could continue. And it is always the main couple. The main couple is always a girl and a boy. So I don't understand why can't you see that the ones that can't be just friends aren't two boys or two girls. The ones that always have to be romantically involved are a boy and a girl.

If you read this to the end, thank you. I hope you think the same as me. And if you don't, read it again and see some of the shows I mentioned. And please, think about what I said instead of being a close-minded person.

Chozen and Daniel go out for drinks one night, unfortunately for them someone else was there as well and had noticed them come in.

Basically super Jealous Terry spots Chozen and Daniel out at the club and takes matters into his own hands!

Daniel finally noticing someone glaring at them from across the club after they finish a couple of drinks.

He tries very subtly tries to suggest they leave even though they kinda just got there, and Chozen is confused.

"Why Daniel-san, we just got here!"

Before Daniel has a chance to warn his friend, a voice behind Chozen very coldly says, "Planning on leaving so soon LaRusso?"

Terry Silver is VERY drunk, and very, very angry. But worse of all he is JEALOUS.

"Why are you here?" Chozen asks suspiciously and starts to rise from his seat ready to confront Terry.

Daniel starts to panic, and scrambles to stand in between the two men.

"You'll forgive fucking Johnny Lawrence, this guy, oh yeah I finally learned about you two's little history, how Chozen tried you kill you in Okinawa, and you'll even forgive Mike Barnes but not me? What the fuck does this guy have that I don't Danny boy? I would have given you anything and everything!"

Basically just spouts of a jealous unhinged rant.

Daniel is like "I knew deep down you never really changed!"

Then a fight breaks out between Chozen and Terry, and in the chaos, someone hits Daniel, and that gets them to stop fighting for a moment. They all get thrown out.

Unfortunately Terry has his driver and a bodyguard too, and takes the opportunity to kidnap Daniel while Chozen tries to stop it but fails!

[abracazabka]

“average person has 3 karate rivals” factoid actually just statistical error. average person has 0 karate rivals. Daniel LaRusso, who is Just A Little (Punchable) Guy & adopts homoerotic karate rivals on the daily, is an outlier and should not have been counted

[cossmiicxx]

on my karate kid bullshit

Daniel Larusso the absolute twink who somehow manages to get a new bf every single movie

and chozen the cutie pie 🫶🏼

[cobra-wives]

[andygo34]

Daniel [reading]: A study says that in a group of friends there will always be a person that everyone has fallen in love with or had a crush on at some point...

Daniel:I wonder which one of us would be...

Johnny, Chozen and Mike [looking directly at Daniel]: No idea.

Petition for AO3 to create an official "rivals to lovers" tag.

What If Daniel had joined the boys at Terry's mansion, he chases after Terry and Chozen, but it stopped by one of Terry's men. During Daniel's scuffle, he distracts Chozen who is worried about his friend, and Terry takes the moment after being apparently subdued to strike Chozen while he looks away.
