You know Sherlock Holmes is public domain, right? No one officially owns it, so anyone can pretty do whatever they want with it.

Okay. That's all well and good, but you're still assuming that Sherlock and John would be canonically gay if there weren't Social Stigmas simply because you personally would like it if they were. And, thing is, you and others like you are actually just as bad as homophobes, because you can't conceive of two men being close to one another outside of them having a romantic and sexual relationship (yet you'll accept similar closeness from women and not immediately jump to the assumption that they're In Lurrrrveeee).

And you know this how? You're basing your assumption on ONE show I like. You have no idea what other shows I watch (or books I read, or music I listen to, etc.), what sorts of relationships men on those shows/books/etc. have, and how I feel about those relationships.

Fenm never said that kind of closeness from female leads never inspired shipping in her, nor did she say she ships all men in close relationships and never sees them as friends. Fenm just said that she's tired of the queerbaiting with no payoff, especially since she ships the ship. That doesn't make her homophobic, that just makes her reasonable.

Also for the record I don't ship BBC Sherlock/John, I'm just defending based on common sense.
