Should we make a new page for just Doctor Who? The list getting kinda long, what with the Doctor and the Master having a few decades of ~~sexual tension~~ interaction and all.

I resent the "opposite of love" in paragraph 2. I may be wrong? but I'm pretty sure that the opposite of love is actually indifference, not hate, because hate is a (very negative) type of relationship and indifference is more like the utter lack of one. Anyone agree? Disagree?

If the opposite of love is indifference, wouldn't that make the definition of love "any strong emotion"? A negative emotion's antonym is a positive emotion; in my opinion, love is the opposite of hate.

I could explain why you're wrong, or I could just say no. I'll explain. The opposite of a negative type of relationship is a positive type of relationship. The opposite of a lack of a relationship is a very strong relationship. Love is a positive relationship. Hate is a negative relationship. So, you explained to everyone else why you're wrong.

There are various [1]s, [2]s, etc. but there is no just [[Yay]].

What is a yay? Urban dictionary states "Used as an exclamation of pleasure, approval, elation, or victory.", but this seems not to suit.

The idea is the subtext of "homosexuality yay" etc. Foe Yay doesn't work taken literally but it works fine as a snowclone (snowclones are not necessarily bad if the 2 tropes are very closely related).
