And finally the options in this scenario were not Joan/Sherlock heterosexual and interracial relationship (IF the show is even going to go there) relationship vs John/Sherlock homosexual relationship. So by making John into Joan we are not being ~robbed~ of a gay relationship on TV. THAT WAS NEVER GOING TO HAPPEN. IT WAS NEVER AN OPTION. So making John into Joan is NOT an example of homophobia. It just isn't. John and Sherlock is not a canon sexual relationship so there is no gay relationship being erased.

THIS THIS THIS.

Listen, in an ideal world, I'd take Jon and Sherlock in a gay relationship over Joan/Sherlock, even though its interracial, because a gay couple on this kind of show -- not to mention with those iconic characters -- is basically (entirely?) unheard of on US network TV, and that would be amazeballs. But that was NOT what was going to happen. It would have been another bromance. And as much as I love me some bromance, either a deep male/female platonic friendship or an interracial couple is more exciting to me at this point.
