Posts about SHIPPING for and against

Here's a nice one for you all. I have encountered an early SHIPPING 
thread - love it/hate it etc [10101].

A further complication is that the thread wanders in and out of fic, 
with occasional frissons of excitement about Draco (or indeed, 
anyone) in leather (perplexingly, it apparently has to be warm 
leather..).

The posts are not, strictly speaking, about who might do what to 
whom, but more of an argument between the fans about whether it is 
interesting to discuss it at all, with doses of legal stuff about 
ripping off other author's characters.

I suppose this is 1.3.1.2 Reader Response & Subversive Readings, 
accompanied by 2.14 RelationSHIPPING ? I often want to click 0.6 as 
well, though (Fanfic), but this is a reject code. However, 
cataloguing rule #456098000 is you must not click reject and category 
codes on the same post.

Thoughts?
