- When I was a younger fan, I felt somewhat uneasy about ships with huge power difference. My feeling then was inconsistent, and didn't have a good rationale. I didn't talk about it nor judge others for their preference. I just thought that this wasn't a thing for me.

Then I came across and got intrigued by the ship manifestoes about Gibbs/Tony (CSI: Original), and Dumbledore/Snape (Harry Potter ). Nowadays I have quite a number of pairings with power imbalance. It's the feature, not the bug.

- When I learnt about the term OTP, it meant loving character A and B most and exclusively shipping them together. I was confused when people used a much looser definition and secretly judged them as being wrong.. Nowadays I accepted that meaning changes, and my way isn't the only way.
