*raises hand*

Queer woman here (specifically, bi leaning asexual, though I'm still not sure how much of my asexuality is innate and how much is due to serotonin levels), and you've completely described me in that first paragraph. I don't watch much TV in general, and what I do watch is pretty much exclusively SFF (but not horror; I'm a huge scaredy-cat) and/or mysteries and/or procedurals. So while I know that there's queer TV out there, it tends not to crop up in shows that I'm interested in.

Granted, I share your frustration with pairing-specific claims of queerbaiting in certain fandoms, e.g. Teen Wolf. I might ship Sterek in my own time, but on the show, I just want Stiles to come out as bi canonically, regardless of whether he's dating Derek or Scott or Danny or Lydia.

But in other fandoms, I'm as hardline as any other shipper; for instance Rizzoli and Isles, where only Rizzoli/Isles would make me feel validated after all that ship-teasing.

I haven't the first clue how universal my experience is, but also anecdotally, I'm definitely a "queer [person] who look[s] to the kind of pairings that Tumblr accuses of 'queerbaiting' for representation."

da

i don't think "i ship a ship, and i refuse to accept any other ship as valid" means you're looking to them for representation. that just means you ship something hard, which anybody can do with any pairing without representation being involved.
