Pride Month 2018 Ship of the Day

Hello everyone! As many of you may know June is Pride Month, a month long celebration of members of the LGBTQIA+ community. As a member of this community, I love when there are ships that are Queer, but also Canon. So all this month I will be posting a new ship everyday that is LGBTQIA+.

Most of them will be Canon/Semi-Canon, but some will be Fanon. The ship will be given a brief history and then how I feel about the pairing. Gonna be honest that there's also going to be a very large bias on my part.

Come back everyday for a new ship. Happy Shipping and Happy Pride!

June 1st - Sanvers
Alex and Maggie first met when they were both investigating an attack on the president. Maggie showed her an alien bar, they both go to an alien deathmatch. Classic romance. Alex realizes that she's gay and Maggie encourages her to come out to her sister. After doing so, the two get together (after a slight hiccup). They are in a beautiful relationship, and even get engaged at the end of season 2. Problems arise when they can't agree on a decision about having kids, and eventually break up.

Sanvers... is a weird one for me, I'm gonna be honest. Yeah start out the month that way. Great job me. When the two first met I was all about and even cried over Alex's conversation with her sister. And I loved when they got together. The problem came when they got engaged. Why? It felt very rushed. As much as I loved the relationship most of it throughout the season was spent in a honeymoon kind of phase. Yes they had problems, but rarely were there any serious conversations. So the fact that they got engaged at the end of the season through me for a loop, especially since it had also been like six months of them being together. The conversation about whether or not a couple should have kids, typically comes before you get engaged. I understand the Maggie's actress didn't want to be a part of the show anymore, but the writers could have handled their break up with better that they did.

I started this month out fun, I swear. Well I was gonna but then decided not too.... I'm good at this I swear.
