I really disagree with the dichotomy you're painting here. Both because 1) there are gay male fans who care about representation in media, just as much as "fangirls" do, and 2) there are plenty of lesbian/bi/etc. female fans whose calls for better representation of queer characters are grounded in a lot more than just wanting to see their fave ship become canon. (Slight tangent: I'm a queer woman, and I actually cried a little bit with joy when Anderson Cooper came out. Having one of my personal heroes--someone who's widely known and respected by a lot of people--come out felt hugely affirming to me, no matter that he's a gay man and I'm a bi woman.)

That said, I definitely agree with the comment pointing out that a predatory psychopath is maybe not the best choice of characters upon whom to pin our hopes of better queer representation in media. :-P
