To be more precise, I ship a 28 years old woman with a two thousand year old alien. It wasn’t a problem with Rose, who at the time was barely an adult, so I don’t know why this should stop me.
Love is beautiful because it can defy age differences. Sure, I wouldn’t ship a thirty year old man with a ten year old girl, where the gap is more or less the same, but that is because we are talking about two very different levels of emotional and psychological maturity, while this isn’t the case with Clara and the Doctor.
I have read a Whouffaldi confession of someone who said:
And I also personally know a couple who has a big age difference – and she’s my age, by the way – and they are better than most couples I know. Definitely more happy than most couples I know.
Love is beautiful because it comes in so many different ways: between people of different sex, between people of the same gender, between people of different ages, between people who share the same passions, and between people who are nothing alike.
There should be no discrimination when it comes to love, not when love is kind and caring. Not when it’s so clear that you can really feel his adoration when he looks at her
and her devotion and trust when she’s looking at him
Not when they’re always there for one another
Not when love runs so deep that
Not when they make each other feel special
Not when they don’t care either
Their relationship is built on small moments of trust and understanding
and big courageous acts of love, where they would go to hell and back to make the other safe and happy.
And this kind of love is not concerned with age differences. So, yeah.
I do ship them, very much.
