I suppose it depends why you became interested in slash to begin with. If you're a gay man, you probably won't grow out of it. If you're a genderqueer woman or a preop FTM transsexual, you probably won't as well.

If you became interested in slash as a teen because, whether you admit it to yourself or not, you couldn't imagine ever being interested in the boys around you, or because you were angry with them for being idiots, and you knew they would be freaked out by the whole gay relationship thing, you just might grow out of it.

If you became interested in slash because you were going through a bad breakup/recovering from an abusive relationship, then when you form a healthy relationship, you might grow out of it too.

Doesn't that leave out the obvious option though? You slash because you see chemistry between two characters?

For het ships, there's Harry/Hermoine or Katara/Zuko that are famously contentious in the fandom.

For femmeslash ships, there's Xena/Gabrielle (although I'd argue this one's canon) or for a more recent example, think of Lara Croft and Samantha Nishimura.

For slash, there's the classics like Kirk and Spock or John Watson and Sherlock Holmes. Then ones from anime like L and Light Yagami.

I honestly don't see why certain ships should be granted more legitimacy just because they're het. Harry/Hermoine can be just as much about sexual fantasy as Castiel and Dean Winchester.

It is also possible to be a straight cis woman and have a kink for man-on-man sex.

And also with relationship dynamics within a work of fiction. There have been fandoms I loved, full of great male characters, where I had no slash ship because none of those characters had the right dynamic (i.e., the dynamics that appeal to me) with each other. I read Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy to ribbons, but never had a slash ship in it.
