Oh no, I don't think that there will never be time to explore Stiles' sexuality in canon. That was poor wording on my part. I just meant to say that if there's never a point where the writers have a chance to work it in, that people shouldn't assume that it's the end of the world. I am all for it making canon, since I'd like to see more positive portrayals of bisexuality in media in general, but like you said, it would be something they'd have to be committed to exploring, and if they're just doing it to please fans, they could easily muck it up.

A lot of people in fandom seem to have problems distinguishing between legitimate critique and being a pushy asshole about things. I can only imagine how frustrated Jeff Davis must be about being constantly bombarded with questions about Sterek. Although I have to admit, that is partially his own fault for opening that door, however unwittingly. They should have a class where they sit down writers/showrunners/other creators the second their stuff starts to get big and explain to them the proper way to approach fandom in the wild. It would save so much heartache in the long run.

Oh yeah, I agree. Shoehorning it in at the expense of character & story would not work. I want to see it done -- but I want to see it done right.

I feel kinda bad for Jeff Davis, because he has clearly had to learn very quickly that everything he says will touch off an explosive chain reaction somewhere in the depths of the internet. He should never have encouraged fandom to think he was receptive to their ideas. It's like feeding one stray cat who meanders onto your stoop; all of a sudden you're a crazy cat lady with twenty feline friends, six of whom are named Trixie. Davis should've taken pointers from Vince Gilligan. That dude doesn't even google the name of his own show.

Now I just want fanart of Jeff Davis as a cat lady.
