A ship-stan is a fan who obsessively supports one specific ship (real or fictional), to the point of shading or disrespecting other ships or members. Usually hyper-defensive, overly emotional, and often found starting fandom wars over fictional dynamics.
– "She’s not just a shipper, she’s a total ship-stan. Don’t mention any other pairing around her."
– “Bro, it’s just fanfiction, calm down. Don’t go full ship-stan.”

Get the Ship-stan mug.When you BEGIN stan someone, mainly a musical group that has already split or disbanded.
The term is inspired by the word "retroactive," which means "taking effect from a date in the past."
It's not really nostalgia, because you were never really there.
So it feels like you are stanning a period in the past, and you are mentally there.
