I'm genuinely puzzled as to how you could possibly think this was true. Look at the majority of mainstream media in the U.S. Does that really look like it's geared towards slash fangirls to you? Mind you, I'm not saying they'd turn down a following if it was there, but I don't think that's a significant consideration and I'm also not seeing how "bankable" the merch consumerism is for slash fans specifically.

People really conflate 'I ship something in this' with 'the creators specifically targeted my interests' when it comes to media content and it's weird as shit.

9/10 slash fans enjoying something is an accidental bonus, not a deliberate choice.

Right? There's a huge difference between "I saw a dynamic between two male characters in a show that I ship like burning" and "the creators 100% did it on purpose for people who enjoy m/m pairings". I think that's just weird wishful thinking. The "because we buy so much merch" is even weirder and more out of touch with reality. But I notice that when people are deep in fandom, they tend to lose perspective on how niche fandom often is, still. Just because it's a huge part of your world doesn't mean everyone who watches that show/movie is in fandom.
