XDDDDD Because obviously, Shakespeare just bleeds wank. I mean, just look at Hamlet. You know the ship wars between Horatio/Hamlet and Fortinbras/Hamlet just blow the fandom through the roof.
You're forgetting Hamlet/Yorick; their contingent can be vocal (especially the ones who are into necro). And of course there's Claudius/Hamlet (Danecest FTW!); their fans can be pretty rabid. And let's not even get into Polonius and Laertes...
Ah, and then there's the Bertram/Posthumus/Claudio pairing (OMGTHEIRLOVEISSOMISOGYNISTIC).
And then there's the Iago Mary Sues, but the less said about them the better. (When will they learn that Desdemona's younger sister Britney, with strawberry blonde hair and magical color-changing eyes, cannot seduce Iago away from the memory of his dead love Othello!)
