Ooo you wanna look at my pokemon self insert redesign so byaaaad
i love being unaware of Most selfshippers sources so i can just integrate into my belief system that you and them are canon. like fuck man ive never seen cookie run youre right you ARE kissing that one i saw you guys in all the art of it
I need to make this post because I feel it’s important. Especially for those in the self ship community.
I understand folks getting excited when coming across a new fictional crush and wanting to gush with others who also enjoy them as well, hell I have a few fictional characters that I’m like this with. I know it’s a thing. But in the self ship community I really need people to remember that not everyone is comfortable with folks gushing about how much they like the same character, especially on someone else’s personal posts about them or in an ask. Same thing with folks tagging others in someone else’s self ship post or even on canon x canon posts all because a f/o of theirs is there. I get wanting to make folks happy, but sometimes this will have the opposite effect.
Y'all really need to read people’s carrds/strawpages/pinned posts!!! I’ve seen multiple of other self shippers spiraling many times due to folks crossing their boundaries and not seeing if they are comfortable or not when it comes to sharing their f/os. Please ask folks before sending or doing anything. Even just dm’ing or sending a simple ask to someone will save a lot of trouble for everyone. And please PLEASE respect other people’s boundaries. Everyone in this community is trying to find comfort and get away from the stress of our daily lives outside the internet. We shouldn’t have to be stressed here too. And self shippers don’t need to give people an explanation to why they don’t share if they don’t want to, everyone has their own personal reasons. So please be respectful of others and their feelings as you would want others to be respectful of yours.

shoutout to selfshippers who use literally themself! i know it may be silly to shout this out because there's either more or less "personal" selfshippers out there, but i personally don't see a lot of that. of course, i'll never hate on someone who doesn't use "literally" themselves, but i feel like ocs tend to be more popular or widespread! which is totally cool and great and i am in you guys' corner forever, but i wanna shout out people like me. because sometimes i end up feeling lonely or a little out of place or awkward because i kinda really outgrew my oc/cc phase. it gets a little awkward sometimes and i get those lingering fears of being judged or that how i choose to selfship would be looked over as opposed to an oc— again, that's not to diss anyone, it's more of a silly worry that others may be able to relate to.
shoutout to the selfshippers who it's "them" to every detail— from their personalities, to their appearance, to their preferences, to their flaws and "issues" (re: something the selfshipper struggles with). to the people who selfship using themselves because they themself want to feel special, that using themself in their most accurate form or presentation makes them feel more loved. you are always valid, and your f/o will always love you.
shoutout to selfshippers who portray themselves down to the very detail. that being hairstyle/hair-type, their appearance in terms of their body whether that is their weight and being big or small. or maybe you're a hairy femme or a smooth masc. big applause to selfshippers who get down little details like markings, how they smile, their eye/nose/lip types. much love to the selfshippers who more or less embrace "themself" in their portrayals.
shoutout to the selfshippers who selfship using themself, but it may not be super 1:1 of how they present themselves irl, and yet, it's still them! maybe it's dressing yourself in a style you can't do/have no interest in doing/can't afford to doing. maybe it's you with alternative hairstyles opposed to the one you always have irl/hairstyles you can't always do. maybe you have an alternative hair color! to selfshippers who add on body modifications despite not having them irl because of any reason despite you always wanting one. shoutout to the selfshippers who, it's more or less them, but maybe their portrayals use their different names the selfshipper themself uses. that it's basically them, just under a different name. shoutout to selfshippers who, it is them, but they're not human! maybe it's a fursona, monstersona, etc— them in a different form!
shoutout to the selfshippers who use literally themselves to cope. be it handling their trauma, disorders or disabilities, illnesses— people who want comfort for those things and implement them more personally onto this accurate presentation of themself to feel that love from their faves. that they don't use a different portrayal for these personal struggles because maybe they want to imagine their fave loving them, not some stand-in or someone else that isn't them.
shoutout to selfshippers who use literally themself because they are saddened by the idea of their fave loving someone that isn't them. that the idea of them liking someone who isn't them because of how they look/act makes them feel really upset. maybe you were cast aside for that. that selfshipping using their literal self makes you feel appreciated beyong belief. that it might actually help you grow to appreciate yourself more and maybe even get better in places where you struggle— maybe using yourself helps you get better mentally or physically of emotionally.
there may be so many other reasons, but these were the ones that came to mind. if you have another reason, you're always very valid. your f/o wouldn't love you less for being you in your most "true" state, as we'll say. they wouldn't prefer you over some heavily altered version of yourself or how people would idealize you. they wouldn't prefer if you used an oc over you. they love 1000%, and nothing will change that— as long as you're happy.
thing is self shipping is inherently self serving and if youre not doing everything in this for yourself and your happiness then it Will start to bother you. you cant do any of it for the approval of others
Then they hate you. But they also fully misunderstand you- and that's important. They hate a fake version of you, and have no idea who you really are, and that makes them invalid. Their thoughts are not truth- they're just an incorrect opinion, like calling the sky made of rocks.
Listen, self shipping is VERY much about self indulgence and healing. Doing it for yourself is hard but you can do it. You do it because a deep part of you loves yourself, and wants you to be happy, even if you don't realize it. If you do it for the approval of others, then... what's the goal there? Self shipping is inherently a GOOD kind of selfish- it's self care and indulgence and it's FUN!
TLDR; have fun with it, people calling you things that you're not reflects more on their assholery at being willing to make fun of you for a truly harmless hobby, than it ever reflects on you.
Reblog this to support the selfship(s) of the person you reblogged it from!
Since some days, an indirect showing of support is just a lil easier. ♥

i can't even be surprised anymore by the several psa's i've seen telling people "hey maybe you shouldn't ship with characters that are rapists" bc i've seen many selfshippers be blatantly misogynistic to begin with. i already see many who ship with characters that outright treat women like trash, the fact that they would need to be told "hey maybe you shouldn't draw yourself kissing a rapist" is not surprising nor would i expect them to care. i really do get disappointed with the amount of shippers who seem genuinely unable to practice critical thinking in how they engage with media involving these things, especially because i feel like the misogyny of these characters is deliberately ignored in favor of loving on a "conventionally attractive" man who looks like he ~serves cunt~, but again, it gets lost bc it's such a trend in selfship circles. misogyny is just a small detail to selfshippers in the grand scheme of things
