Frerard is the term used to describe the supposed romantic relationship between My Chemical Romance members Gerard Way, vocalist; and Frank Iero, rythm guitar. This ship is not only overrated and boring, it's also shoven to the face of any MCR fan; it seems to be needed for being a true fan. Frerard shipers, or Frerardies, enjoy to ignore that both Gerard and Frank are married, to Lindsey Way (or Lyn-Z) the first and to Jamia Nestor the second, and that they both have kids, too; all in favor of their ship. The fics usually fetichize Gerard's feminity, and/or relationships between two men (or men alligned persons). People talking about Frerard to any member of the band, or to their friends/family, are also ignoring personal boundaries in favor of their ship. Despite all this, most Frerardies will attack anyone who suggests Frerard isn't real, or that it never was, or point out this extremely toxic behaviour.
The 'evidence' supporting this ship is that they kissed on-stage, as if stage gay wasn't a common occurrence, and that Frank kissed Gerard's cheek during the I'm Not Okay (I Promise) music video, as if that video didn't also include a high school student eyeing another boy with the words "If you ever felt curious" having just appeared on screen. MCR has always defied homophobic, transphobic, and sexist looks at their work. I could write more but there's no space

tl;dr: don't do this to yourself, please.

Every fangirl’s favourite mental nuclear missile. ‘Frerard’ is the ship name for Frank Iero and Gerard Way, the rhythm guitarist and frontman of My Chemical Romance, respectively. It all started when the duo had a reputation for their ‘stage gayness’ in which they fought homophobia by acting, as the words ‘stage gayness’ suggests, gay on stage for each other. They never dated, to clarify, and they never had any actual romantic feelings for each other as far as we know (and as far as we should be concerned, because that’s pretty personal), and they’re both married to women and have children now, but when they did do the stage gay stuff, it was because they loved making homophobes uncomfortable. This kind of backfired because they found out that people were… into that. Really into it. The entire band ended up knowing of the *explicit* slash fanfiction (the 2000s emo/alternative scene was a fucking time if I’ve ever seen one) and shipping the weirdass fans turned their statement into. So they decided to stop with their stage gay duo act. Sadly, that didn’t stop the manic emo dream kids, and that’s why frerard crap still pops up on my tumblr dashboard occasionally to this day. These shippers need to be stopped or so help me.
