Slim pickings back then maybe?

Then again a big facet of Fandom is "omg these two characters stood next to each other clearly they're fucking!"

Spock/Kirk came into existence right at the very beginning of this being a thing that people did. M/M shipping was functionally not a thing before that. Like, people did not have the mindset of going around looking for stuff to ship. So "slim pickings" doesn't really seem to fit the case.

NAYRT but slash was absolutely a thing before TOS. TOS had a huge impact on the zine scene (I think even started it? I can’t remember my fandom history on that.) but contemporary pastiches of Holmes/Watson exist and that pairing has never had a break in fanworks in over 130 years.

Philosopher Phaedrus and playwright Aeschylus got in a fight about who topped, Patroclus or Achilles. M/M shipping has been a thing since humans made things things.

Not that you're wrong, but you'd have a better argument if you used an example of a ship that was noncanon and between male characters who were written by the text as straight.

Hate you break this to you, but Patroclus and Achilles are noncanon. Bro, have you even read The Illiad?
