True enough that the average Becky shipping Cas/Dean has very little to do with toxic masculinity/homophobia in general society. But scary, tinhatter, superSPNfan Courtney has contributed to fandom toxicity, contributed to making the actors feel uncomfortable or even threatened because of what she perceives to be true, contributed to how the showrunners respond to shipping, and possibly contributed to how at least a few people think about male friendship (because sometimes those involved with the show do have to address questions about it). This is true for other fandoms too, though SPN is actually up there for some seriously terrible fan behavior.

And man, it is so much worse when we get to Denise, who is a part of a scary, tinhatter, superRPF fangroup. Because, yes, she does affect actual male friendships by making those involved self-conscious about the way they act around each other and making their management react in odd ways to make sure their clients are marketable in the ways they want them to be.

To be clear, I am not talking about most fans. I am not talking about fic writers and fanartists who understand boundaries. I'm not talking about fans who speculate for fun about real-life peoples' public personas and realize that it is all just speculation and has very little to do with reality. But there are absolutely some problematic fans that have caused specific issues with this.
