All the big fandoms I can think of that had major queerbaiting whiners were ones like SPN or TW where the characters were not queer and people wanted them to be, vs. fandoms where the main characters are canon openly queer but get called queerbaiting for being the wrong ships.

If it's that commonplace for queer characters to be called queerbaiting for being both A) canon openly queer but B) in the wrong queer ships, it should be really easy to give examples of where this behavior is prevalent. I'm genuinely curious to know because I have never seen it.

I mean, technically, SPN isnt even queerbaiting (In the sense of "we are going to have a main gay character, we SWEAR! Watch us!") because well, Castiel DID confess gay romantic feelings for Dean, even if it was at the last minute.

But given that it was his literal LAST appearance? YEah, I doubt he counts as "canon queer character being called queerbait for being in the wrong ship"
