I do not. Crazydiamondsue keeps trying to get me to, but I am so far resisting. LOL
For me, SGA is a good example. The show clearly shipped Rodney/Keller; they were a canon romance. But a huge subset of fandom shipped John/Rodney. For me, there was no cognitive dissonance. I was all, "Rodney gets to sleep with Jennifer AND John! Yay!" LOL I do not belong to the mutual exclusivity club with shipping.
I wonder how many of us there are who enjoy fic pairings differently from canon pairings. At least some people are commenting to these posts to say they do, but I wonder if we're the outliers. :)
