We love shipping our fave characters together, but put a Sapphic twist on it and we get even more excited!X (formerly Twitter) user @simplytomh did just that by asking people to vote on their favorite lesbian ships for the inaugural wlw ship awards. More than two million people participated in the contest, which started with 88 pairings and was narrowed down to a top 40.For the uninitiated, shipping is when fans make up a romantic pairing between two characters. Especially when queer charters were rarely seen on TV, shipping allowed fans to live out their queer dreams with characters that would never be allowed to be together on screen. But were loving these wlw pairings since there still arent enough LGBTQ+ characters in media, and its even rarer to get a Sapphic romance that doesnt end in the Bury Your Gays trope, and characters we think should get together often dont even if the shows teases it for ages.Sometimes two characters have a close friendship, but fans want a romance, or there is such natural chemistry it makes sense for them to be together, or a simple touch of a hand on the shoulder has fans dying to see more, or the show is brimming with so much sexual tension that its palpable. (@) In the top 40 are classic ships like Buffy x Faith and Xena x Gabrielle, alongside newer pairings like Tara X Darcy from Heartstopper and Marceline x Princess Bubblegum from Adventure Time.Of course, the comments were full of people who loved the wlw couples won and other people who were furious their faves didnt make the cut, including someone who commented, Ppl have no taste its actually shameful, and another person who was angry their pick from League of Legends wasnt on the list, writing, Caitvi not making it is actuallyhomophobic wtf.But the votes dont lie, the number one pick scored more than 1.3 million votes or 62.9 percent!The top 10 includes Josie x Isabel from Bottoms, Sook-hee x Hideko from The Handmaiden, Korra x Asami from The Legend of Korra, Hope x Lizzie from Legacies, and Kara x Lena from Supergirl. But what ships landed in the top five spots, and do you agree with the voters?10. Josie x Isabel (Josabel) - 'Bottoms'The raunchy teen comedy Bottoms made audiences laugh, but queer women were smitten with Josie and Isabel, who share a kiss at the end of the film.9. Sook-hee x Hideko - 'The Handmaiden'Sook-hee works as a made for the wealthy Lady Hideko in The Handmaiden, and the sexual tension between the two during a bathing scene and another when Sook-hee puts her finger in Hidekis mouth had fans panting.8. Korra x Asami (Korrasami) - 'The Legend of Korra'Korra and Asamis relationship in The Legend of Korra starts as friends but takes on a romantic ton toward the end of the series, but fans felt cheated when the two never shared an onscreen kiss before the show ended.7. Hope x Lizzie (Hizzie) - 'Legacies'These two vampires have known each other since they were children, and fans were dying to see them have an enemies-to-lovers romance on the show.6. Kara x Lena (Supercorp) - 'Supergirl'It is rumored that there is a deleted scene from the series finale of Supergirl where Kara and Lena share a passionate kiss, but alas, we didnt get to see it. That hasn't stopped fans from wanting the two characters to get together.5. Natalie x Lottie (lottienat) - 'Yellowjackets'These two characters spend most of Yellowjackets butting heads, but in season two, when Natalie infiltrates Lotties cult compound pretending to need help, the chemistry between the two had fans wanting them to get together.4. Niko x Crystal (palasaki) - 'Dead Boy Detectives'Sadly, Dead Boy Detectives was canceled by Netflix after only one season, so well never get to see Niko, who learned all of her investigative skills from cartoons and teenage medium Crystal get together, but thats what fanfic is for!3. Emily x Maya (emaya) - 'Pretty Little Liars'Emily and Maya actually dated on Pretty Little Liars, but their romance ended too soon, and clearly, fans wanted more!2. Captain Janeway x Seven of Nine (J7) - 'Star Trek: Voyager'Considering Star Trek: Voyager originally aired in the 90s, there was no way we would have gotten a lesbian love story on screen, but Captain Janeway and former Borg Seven of Nines chemistry was undeniable. Plus, who didnt want to see Captain Janeway in her spandex Federation suit and Seven of Nine in her skin-tight silver catsuit share a Sapphic kiss?1. Claudia x Madeleine (claudeleine) - 'Interview with the Vampire'In the book and original movie, Claudia had the body of a child, while Madeleine was an adult, but fans started shipping the two when AMC's new Interview with the Vampire TV series premiered and depicted the two vampires closer in age. Clearly, the pairing is popular since more than a million people voted for it!
