Damn I Wish I Was Your Lover

[livejournal.com profile] cynicalshadows  has a post on shipping that is pretty much made of sheerest word and describes what makes me ship a couple like crazy as well. In brief:

1. ) Opposites attract. (For more on what I mean when I say that, read Jennifer Crusie's essay 'What I Learned From TV.' Her site is down so I can't link at the moment. I ♥ you, Jennifer Crusie!)

2.) Forbidden Fruit.

3.) Stronger Together.

It's okay. I totally understand the impulse. I just think that, often (in Western Culture/American Culture especially) we don't assume that people understand the difference between reality and fantasy.

Witness so many Christian's flipping out over Harry Potter.
