*shrug* Not exactly talking micro-level when bringing CLAMP up as an example. Tsubasa runs in Weekly Shounen Magazine, the #2 magazine behind Shounen Jump. A handful of their other series ran in Monthly ASUKA, another mainstream magazine.

I was trying to point out just what I said. The likelihood of a straight or gay pairing in a series really depends on the series, genre and fandom. Sometimes claiming subtext as canon doesn't work. Sometimes it does. Pulling away from canon to a preferred fanon subtext doesn't make canon not exist. However, when you have a series that is pure subtext, you have to look at the genre/audience/creator. Making a blanket statement that the subtext or interaction is going to become straight or gay does a disservice to things like character development, setting, plot, etc.

Is House going to get in bed with Wilson? Probably not. But if/when the ratings are going down the tubes and FOX doesn't care if they jump the shark, who says the writers might not have them get completely plastered and wake up together one morning?
