I sort of agree in the sense that a lot of fandom will see anything where guys are close to each other as "queerbaiting" if it doesn't turn into a canon romance. Guys who are friends either need to be 10 feet away from each other at all times and giving no-homo nods at the camera, or else they need to be a canon couple. There can be no in between. It perpetuates a bad stereotype of the "right way" for guys to have a platonic friendship, IMO.
