Re: Friendship or queerbaiting?

[personal profile] littlestbirds 2013-12-20 01:53 am (UTC)(link)
I think "unrealised potential" is entirely dependent on interpretation, so all you have to do to not piss me off is be clear about how you've imagined the characters and respectful of your fans.

I don't like the word queerbaiting, because I've seen it defined as growing your audience by baiting actual queers who genuinely believe they are going to be represented. I don't see that happening in the shows I've watched. I just see the show runners responding to fan enthusiasm in ignorant and annoying ways and I wish there was a better word for it.
