Page "Shipping (fandom)" Paragraph 21
from
Wikipedia
It was originally coined as a term to describe Kirk / Spock ( or " K / S "; sometimes spoken " Kirk-slash-Spock ", whence " Slash ") homosexual fan fiction.
For a time in the late 1970s and early 1980s, both " K / S " and " Slash " were used to describe such fan fiction, regardless of whether or not they were related to Star Trek.
But as homosexuality became more accepted in society, so too did the terms lose their derogatory connotation.
