I would argue that shipping a canon pairing does make you a real shipper. I don't use the term  as "I hope this pairing becomes canon," rather I see it more as "I like these two characters together romantically and enjoy fanfics, videos, etc. of them." The hope that the characters become a canon pairing is secondary.
