Discussion: Don't Do It

"Leave Shane alone already. What makes Shane... Shane, IS Shane! And trying to 'couple' her up is just WRONG!Especially with Jenny! Come on! Two people CAN have a great, close relatiponship WITHOUT going there! You would truly lose me as a viewer. You are making lesbian life a joke with some of the outlandishness you are doing. Putting Jenny & Shane together would be even more outlandish. "

"Shane and Jenny...not going to happen. The two characters are not going to hook up. I would be money on this."

"Sorry, but accepting someone for who they actually are is a GOOD thing. Carmen could never do it and look at where that got her - all she ever tried to do was force Shane to change to make her happy and that's *not* what someone who supposedly claims to love you should demand of you. Carmen wanted Shane's body, but as for the rest of her - her heart and soul and personality - she was determined to wipe it out and make Shane into who she wanted her to be and forget the fact that Shane is a good, kind, loyal, loving person who only ever wants to do right by the people she cares about. Carmen only ever wanted to possess Shane because she felt nobody else could have her. That's not love.

Accepting someone for who they are is a very healthy thing. And it's something none of the women Shane has been with have been able to accomplish. Jenny does - she knows Shane in a way that none of the others do and she still loves her deeply, even with the mistakes she's made and the darkness she has in her. Why? Because Jenny has the same darkness. Underneath everything - including everybody's idiotic views of the both of them - they are, at the heart of themselves, exactly alike. And that is why they *will* work and work better than any other relationship this show has seen."

"I don't know exact figures, but I know that there are a great many people in the states who live a polyamorous lifestyle and they're perfectly happy. I think that could be an option that would be open to the both of them and we saw, with the way Jenny handled finding Moira fooling around with Billie, that Jenny seemed to be perfectly *fine* with Moira seeing other people, so long as she was honest -- it didn't have anything to do with Moira messing around with Billie but more to do with the fact that Moira was doing it on the sly. So I think that's one avenue that's open to them -- if, in fact, Shane was with Jenny and still felt the urge to occasionally see other people, I think that as long as Shane was open and honest with Jenny, she wouldn't have any problems with letting Shane play.

Though, after seeing how jealous Shane was when she saw Niki talking to Jenny, it makes me think that Shane might only want Jenny to be with her, if they were together, and that makes me think that Shane really does love Jenny. Shane's *never* been jealous when it came to any of the other women she's been with and I think that really says a lot about how Shane feels about Jenny. It only stands to reason, though, that if she's jealous of the possibility of Jenny being with anyone else but her, then I think she'd finally realize what it feels like to see someone she cares about with someone else. And, not liking the feelings that gives her, Shane would more than likely give her word to Jenny to be faithful without Jenny having to ask and keep her word."
