UNPOPULAR OPINION that I wanted to share with you all...

I get annoyed whenever I see popular ships.

But only CERTAIN popular ships. You know, like Meiriam (Mei × Miriam, Turning Red), Rymin (Ryan × Min-Gi, Infinity Train), and Luberto (Luca × Alberto, Luca).

But the REASON why I get kind of upset is because I think that THEY'RE PERFECTLY GOOD AS FRIENDS.

FRIENDS!!! YOU REMEMBER THAT WORD? F-R-I-E-N-D-S.

I'm not throwing any shade at anyone who ships these ships, nor am I saying they're bad. I ship them under certain circumstances! The thing is...that people have forgotten what "girl friends" or "boy friends" are. Not "girlfriends" or "boyfriends." No. Only the separate terms in the same sentence.

JUST like straight couples, gay couples have been slightly normalized in the media, and it's undermining the beauty of natural friendship between people of the same gender. It's making me upset because we had a WHOLE SHOW dedicated to the power of friendship (My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic) BETWEEN characters of the same sex, and yet, we've forgotten what it means to just have two good friends being silly.

I love gay rights. I support gay rights. I AM gay. But maybe we should just let goofy friends be goofy friends, alright?

And BEFORE y'all I.T. fans come at me with "Oh, but Ryan and Min was kind of intentional-" I know. I...I kinda just think they're better as friends. That's kinda my opinion. DEFINITELY NOT partially because I like Ryan and don't really want him to be with Min, that's DEFINITELY not the case. Who made you think that?

Anyways, thanks for reading my rant. I hope you learned something new and maybe even changed your view on certain things.

Oh, and another thing. I don't want ANY comments attacking either me or someone else for what they believe. All hateful comments will be deleted, ok? Love you!
