    nice classic...maybe this romance is acceptable in jungle (given the jungle is muslim where child brides are normal) but not in the modern society...and I doubt that our superhero has any interests in this pink short-ass except for a harmless friendship...I bet he's rather attracted to blonde chicks with big boobies like in real life

      I ship Stefán with Robbie …

      The ship name is Stefánie (pronounced exactly the same as Stephanie)


      (lmao, don't take this seriously xD You might say it was … just for pun? ;) Well, concerning the actual topic, I'll just say I find it difficult personally to ship real people and puppets. So I don't think I could get 100% on board with Stephanie x anyone …)

          I think that a lot of people on Tumblr ship Sportarobbie because they are part of the LGBT+ community themselves. With the lack of LGBT representation in the media we often project onto characters we like. There's nothing saying that Sportarobbie wouldn't be canon in the show, so people ship it.

          Younger people also have a bias for teenagers/young adults/conventionally attractive people that may look young. Most ships between children aren't people's favorites because they're too young to relate to. Younger people also don't often pay attention to relationships between older people (Bessie/Milford) or people that "look weird" (puppets).

          For example, some people headcanon Sportacus and Robbie as trans because they are trans themselves.

          Most fans on Tumblr joined the fandom because of the (Robbie-centric) memes; most of the time Robbie is their favorite character. Perhaps fans here don't ship Sportarobbie because they joined for a different reason.

          I think shipping is okay because it's a way fans express themselves. (Unless it's like pedophilia or something, that's gross.) I do ship Sportarobbie.

                  I think it is because Sportacus and Robbie are the only adult characters on the show who are considered attractive. If there were other adult characters on the show you would see more variety in the pairings. Most people avoid writing pairings with the kids as that does tread dangerous waters if they are being paired with an older character in the show. Or maybe it just isn't as interesting a dynamic to write about the kids together. The idea of the hero and the villain falling in love is exciting and sexy to a lot of folks. As for why would people do it at all with this show, I think other posters have touched on that pretty well already. It's a way to explore one's own feelings and what they find attractive in relationships, or a way to explore fantasies, or a way to feel represented and acknowledged.

                  I have enjoyed reading some of the stories out there about Sportacus and Robbie, but my feelings on it do flip-flop. One of the biggest appeals to LazyTown to me is the strong themes of friendship, and I am more gratified to see people explore friendship between Sportacus and Robbie than to read about them getting romantically intimate.

                    Sportarobbie is probably such a popular ship because Sportacus and Robbie are the only human adults in LazyTown.

                    No one wants to ship puppets.

                          It shouldn't exist.

                            Re: Thoughts on Sportarobbie

                            Me? I'll admit I ship the heck out of Sportarobbie, enough to write a 65,000-words-and-counting fanfiction about them. I think they make a cute couple, though I might be projecting in places.
                            Sportarobbie isn't the first ship I've shipped though. That was probably GerIta in Hetalia. When it comes to shipping in general, yay. Within reason. I don't ship pairings involving things like incest or paedophilia.

                              But there should be a LazyFrankie ship.

                                Chances are it probably does exist, but in the BusyCity universe, fans have completely forgotten about it because they're too lazy. Well, most of them!
