Y’all need to signal boost the shit out of this.
To give you some perspective of how big this is, note that this is a lauded TV Guide editor writing, plainly:
That is what fans are calling for when they ask for Dean’s queerness to come to fruition — simply to be seen. They aren’t just Becky Rosens, projecting their fetishized desires onto a platonic friendship simply to see two attractive men make out. They’re doing so because they want to see themselves accurately reflected onscreen, rather than turned into a plot device or reduced to a dangling carrot to entice a queer audience before shouting “No homo!”
This is exactly the kind of press the fandom needs to make our message heard. If we make this article big enough, if we get TV Guide enough traffic on it, they might write about it more often. If TV Guide writes about it more often, then other outlets will write about it too. If enough outlets write about it, Supernatural is going to get a viral shitstorm on their hands that they’ll have to address.
So click the link and then REBLOG THIS.
It’s like the people in the comment section don’t even read the article, just see the word “destiel” and then start to shit all over shippers in general and the author in particular. It’s a train wreck and we need your help, guys.
Truly, not only if you ship Destiel, but also if you value human decency in general, you should all take a second to read, reblog and signal boost this. The article is backed up with evidence and sources of all things that have happened within the past couple of years, and that are far from okay. Sharing this is not ‘wank’, it’s simply the truth, and it’s important.
Guys, this article is fantastic. Fan of Supernatural or not, it’s a great piece on queerbating and bisexual representation.
