"Pairing" is a term used to describe two or more people together. There is also a term called One True Pairing (OTP) which is used to describe someone's most favorite pairing.

Types

  • Slash- The most popular of the pairings in the fanbase, the term is used for boy/boy pairings. In Japanese terms, these would be Shounen-Ai, which is its softcore term (ex. Hugging, Kissing), and Yaoi, the hardcore term (ex. Sexual Acts). Fans use both the English terms and the Japanese terms, though the Japanese terms have become more common. It is the most popular subject in the fandom.

Examples of these pairings are Kyman, Style, Creek and Bunny.

  • Femslash- One of the least popular in the fanbase, the term is used for girl/girl pairings. In Japanese terms, these would Shoujo-Ai (Softcore term) and Yuri (Hardcore term). The lack of popularity for this kind of pairings is likely due to the lack of the use of the show's female characters.

An example of this kind of pairing are Bendy.

  • Straight- The name speaks for its self, the term is used for boy/girl pairings. This kind of pairings is not as popular as slash but it is more popular then femslash. It became somewhat more popular since The List. It is also sometimes called Het.

Examples of these pairings are Stendy, Candy, and Kybe.

  • Crack Pairing - Crack Pairing is a term used to describe unlikely pairings. Crack pairings can either be slash, femslash, or straight. Crack pairings are usually popular for humor purposes.

An example of this kind of pairing is Dip.

  • Crossover Pairing- Crossover pairings are used to describe pairings from two different shows. Like crack pairings, cross-over pairings can either be slash, femslash, or straight. Cross-over pairings are very rare to find in the fanbase. An example of this would Eric Cartman and Ash Ketchum from the Pokémon series. Another example is Kyle Broflovski and Eponine Thenardier from Les Misérables.
  • Fanon Pairing- Fanon Pairing is pairings involving fanmade characters or a fanmade character and canon Character.
