I don't do shipping, never have done, never will do. Been in many fandoms too... I'm okay so long as people just stay away from characters who are minors. A couple of year ago I really started to get annoyed with people uploading stuff of the Kagamines, so ever since I've reported anything that was too far over the boarders.

To me, children (and until the age of consent, you *are* considered a child by law) should be allowed to be children. In the 90s there was a increase in the UK in the number of teenagers having kids, before they even left highschool (16 years old in the UK). While nobody in my school ever did that, I have since seen these teenagers grow up and many regret what they did. And sex ultimately results in babies if you do it unprotected...And the underage often don't have the money to get protect or are too scared or don't realise how easy babies can be created or sexual diseases passed.

Fanfiction does not tend to represent real life at all, which is why I never lived romance novels. But honestly I have no issue with it until minors are involved. I can understand how a crime TV program may have to touch it, but outside of a few places... A guy who is 20 trying to get on with a teenager is creepy and I don't know how some people willingly allow it. IF caught, the minor is forever embarrassed and the guy thrown in jail. Its not worth the risk. Yet in fanfiction, a full adult of 20 yers old and a 15 year old is somehow *not creepy*. In short Rin x Gackpo would be creepy to me. Despite there being no official age for him, you can tell by his avatar he is a full adult.

As I said, this is my only issue... I just don't find romance interesting. I do have a boyfriend in real life, we are romantic, but... real life and fan fantasies are two different things.
