I found this thing, and it shows how I feel about ships pretty accurately.

"Let's have a debate about ships. I think this will be interesting, considering this is a fandom dominated by ships and shipping.

Q: Are ships a good thing to have in life?

I'll start as con.

SHIPS ARE HORRIBLE THINGS. Just look at how it has affected our fandom community. It has created an enmity between ships. It has made us have wrong priorities. Now all we care about is getting more comments than the other ship, having more moments, and having more votes in the poll. There are ship wars, and people are feeling obligated to choose a side. Some people even hate each other for supporting the opposite ship.

Also, ships take over our brains. Just look at the comments on some of the ship pairings. They say things like "I will not survive if _____ ship happens." This shows that ships have radicalized many people. This shows how stupid we are getting about measly pairings.

Plus, the person whom the ship is about should get at least some say in who they like or dislike. And just because we see some "romantic moments" doesn't mean anything, and it doesn't mean we can ship people. Like, for all we know, Sophie is just supporting Keefe, and Fitz is just helping Sophie with their cognate training, and Tam is just trying to get a friend (other than Linh) in the keeper team.

Many children throughout the country get bullied with ships. It can be about what ship you believe in, or about someone shipping you with some random person you don't even have feelings for. I, personally, have faced the latter. This random girl thinks its funny to pair me with this boy who sends me looks across the class. For all you know he may just be listening to when I share my views with the class (which I do a lot). Wouldn't that mean that she could ship me with practically anybody??? Plus, it's not like I have even talked to this guy. And I never even want to. He gets bad grades and never studies for class.

Anyways... those are my arguments. The next person who comments can argue for the pro, and refute some of my ideas, as well as bring up new ideas. Then the person after that can argue for con, and so on."

This was by a fandom user.

Oh and also, I have an additional argument as to why you should not ship me.

If you are friends with someone (assuming you are my friend), then you would respect their wishes, right? Well, my wish is to not have a ship. So...
