Saw a poll thati implied people only read fanfiction for shipping. And I KNOW that's not true. but now I'm curious to what the ratio is

Ship fics are referring to any fic that is about two or more characters and their romantic/sexual relationship, where the story revolves around that relation ship, or takes a good chunk of the story

Gen fics refer to any fic where the main plot/story is NOT focused on the romantic/sexual relationship between two or more characters (gen fics can include ships, like if there is an established relation ship, but the fic is not focused on the ship)

The main point though is, do you go looking for ships, or other reasons

#To me it seems like a lot of people read for gen #But I'm also in a circle/corner of tumblr that is very aroace in some aspect and writes/reads gen stuff #So my viewpoint is a little skewed #So let's see what people actually read for!#Polls #Fanfiction #Ship fics #Gen fics
