I think I have a very different definition of headcanon than what I see a lot of people using it as.

To me something can only be a headcanon if it isn't in direct conflict of what's actually canon.

I have no problem bending a character's sexuality for a fic, but I don't consider them being that as a headcanon. Just a 'what if' scenario.

But Dean could be bi. Pretty much any fictional character could be bi. It doesn't clash with anything within the show. I'm not sure what word of god has said but I don't generally consider anything outside of the actual narrative to be canon anyway

I've...never heard your definition of headcanon before. Seems to be very limited.

[(Anonymous)]

NAYRT, but this was the only definition of headcanon I'd ever heard of until a couple of years ago, with the caveat that "canon" means "stuff that's actually happened in the series," not interviews, creator meta, etc. People used it to fill in backstories, or explain inconsistencies in canon, and they had supporting arguments and everything. I suppose it was limited in that you had to keep your headcanons within the realms of plausibility, but it also required you to be creative enough to either make your headcanon work within the facts you'd been given or stick to AUs.

With that said, it's not like the show is ever going to go out of their way to prove that Dean is absolutely, 100% not bi at all, because that would be dumb.

da

That's how I'd personally describe headcanon, too. Something that fills in the blanks. It can be far out, or based on nothing, it just shouldn't contradict with the existing canon (being the series)

So a bisexual head!canon of Dean is plausible, but a completely gay Dean isn't a very good canon. Unless you were to argue that every instance of him being with a girl is a straight act, or something, but that seems pretty weak anyway.

Though in the end I suppose what's "canon" to you is really just up to you. If it's your experience and enjoyment of the series, it's your imagination, go wild. I just don't really think the word "canon" really describes that well, but hey, it's your entertainment.

I don't think Dean is gay, but to be fair there are gay people who realize that they're gay after years of dating and sleeping with the opposite gender and thinking that they were straight.
