    The ship Malec consists of two sides. On one hand: Magnus Bane. Magnus is a bisexual Warlock and also adresses this in the show. Alec Lightwood, on the other hand, is a gay man. Although it hasn't been said loudly in the show it is confirmed by the showmaker. (So shipping him with a girl is wrong, so like don't do it. DON'T DO IT)

    Interracial representation:

    While Alec on the one hand is a white man, his significant other, Magnus, is an Asian-American man. Mostly male/male relationships are showed to exist of two same-racially men.

    All in all, Malec is a ship, you all should prefer over any other and please wtach the show they are from. "Shadowhunters" returning March 20, 2018 for it's third season.
