Dean could be bi. There is nothing wrong with interpreting the show as that. The problem comes when people get so invested with the idea of Dean being bi that they convince themselves it will ever happen on the show.

It is also a problem when people who interpret him as bi use it as a way of telling other people they are prejudiced for having a pragmatic and/or cynical view of the TV show.

Those of us fans who want to guard themselves with a shield of pragmatism and/or cynicism constantly remind ourselves of the unappealing facts so we aren't let down.

Dean could be gay, but we aren't going to see it in canon, so separating canon from fanon helps keep people a small bit more sane.

(When I was active in SPN, I shipped Destiel. I like the idea of Dean being bi, but I honestly don't think it will ever happen on the show. Not after so many in-show denials, not after show-runner and actor denials.)
