Re: Friendship or queerbaiting?

[(Anonymous)]

Take Teen Wolf for example, Jeff Davis is always talking about queer characters and how maybe Stiles is bisexual and everyone plays up the whole Sterek thing, but never once in the show do they actually do anything about all this talk.

Well, except for the fact that they actually do have two gay characters as part of the cast (and in a relationship), even if they aren't Stiles or Derek. There was also an episode with a lesbian couple (even if it didn't end well for one of them). So, yes, there are queer characters on the show and Jeff Davis can talk about having them. And, okay, so there has been some playing up of the Stiles/Derek thing among the cast and crew, but I think it was kind of brought on by the fanbase (it did kind blow up and I think really surprised people involved with show and they just went with it). Also, while I would kind of like to see a bisexual Stiles (and there's been nothing to contradict it), a maybe isn't any kind of commitment.

Re: Friendship or queerbaiting?

[(Anonymous)]

I think a maybe is still falling under queerbaiting, because I honestly think Jeff Davis has absolutely no plans to make that happen and is just toying with the audience.

And I also don't really consider background characters the same as having the main cast be queer.

And it was the Teen Wolf tumblr, PR, cast, crew, everyone official was all over the Sterek after they saw it would get fans excited. They've toned way down (after realizing how crazy and rabid some fans can get) but I think they totally knew what they were doing while having no plans to actually make it happen.

I'm not saying that I demand bi Stiles or the main characters to suddenly be queer, I'm just saying the way the writers and everyone involved in the show talks about it and jokes and teases the fans counts as queerbaiting in my opinion.
