what does shipping mean?
It's a word that creates childish arguments about fictional characters over the internet.
It is certainly capable of causing otherwise intelligent individuals to devolve into stubborn, prideful, bickering fools, but not always. I have borne witness to quite a number of civil discussions concerning various pairings. But I digress. Shipping, my friend Catalyst, is a common pastime of many fans of many works. As much as I would love to delve into the topic, I have not the time and the comment section of a random LL doujin may not be the best place. Also, I believe tvtropes describes the phenomenon best anyway. If reading is not your thing, there is an awesome AMV on youtube that sums it up nicely.
Addendum: I should clarify that shipping in and of itself is not banned here, just shipping wars. Basically, if you don't like a particular pairing, don't read doujin tagged with said paring. Please be respectful of those who do enjoy said pairing.
