Shipping

This is most ofter used on tumblr by fandoms. Fandoms will ship everything and anything. Shipping comes from the word relationSHIP. Basically it is when you want a fictional character, real-life person, or cartoon people to be together. People often write fanfictions about their favorite ship, called their OTP.

Anti-shipping

Believing other people shouldn't enjoy a certain pairing and actively demanding those people to stop shipping it, generally involving morals as a reason to why they don't like the pairing and nobody else should.
Person 1: The other day an anti harassed me because they found out I ship Sylvie and Loki.

Person 2: Ugh, anti-shipping is so dumb. Why do you care that I like something that you don't? They're so childish.

shipping

Fandom uses this word as a verb to denote their interest in the possible (and perhaps more often impossible) romantic relationship between two characters in a piece of fiction belonging to any medium. It's really never used in a platonic way, but if it ever is, people tend to separately emphasize that they are using it platonically.

Usually written: Character/Character or CharacterxCharacter. Fanfiction without any shipping, or with little emphasis on ship is usually labeled genfic, which there is a depressing lack of.

Person 2: Yeah. That's kinda damaged. And Vinnie's like a little weasel. He's got a weasel face.
Person 1: But did you notice how weirdly gay they are for each other???
Person 2: No. Eww. Stop talking.
