Oh man... I just saw one of the most awful takes on j2's comments from that con... the op essentially said what those two said was MORE inclusive than what a lot of destiel fans who consider the confession to be gay & romantic (& sexual) think actually! Which like.... huh?!? 

(& obv not gonna reply to that person cos I don't wanna start shit, but I just wanna rant about it for a sec)

First of all, I think most destiel fans are pretty open to all and every type of queer identity being used for dean & cas! I myself see dean as bi, but I'm not gonna argue w/ people who say he's gay or pan or whatever lol! Ive also heard people say cas is an angel so has no fixed form of gender but still say he's gay! I've also seen a lot of trans!dean/cas headcanons, which I love, & others who say they're both cis, which is fine lol!

Basically, even in the small garden patch of fandom I exist in, I've seen a large variety of queer headcanons from people that are just accepted as valid by most fans!

(side note: there’s obv gonna be certain fans that are less inclusive, but that’s what comes from having such a large and diverse fanbase lol)

Now, what the op of this post said was that destiel fans who say cas is gay & that the confession was romantic ONLY think that and shoot anyone down who doesn't think that, which (in my experience) just doesn't happen lol...

But if we look at what jared & jensen very specifically did in their answers, it was vehemently deny that the confession scene can be interpreted as both GAY and ROMANTIC... because in their eyes, cas is 'junkless' which means he can’t have a penis which means he can’t be gay or have sex right? (which is contradicted by the text btw lol & in the grand scheme of things is just... not true at all lol) and that the love he spoke of in the confession can’t be DEFINED because it’s so heavenly, except.... they spend the entire time forcefully claiming that you can define it however you want, except if that definition involves claiming it was gay and romantic and/or sexual lol... 

There’s also the fact that they conflate being gay with having sex, AND that having romantic feelings means that you also have sexual feelings which I think all ace & aro people would laugh in the face of lol

Because this isn’t just about a couple destiel fans insisting that cas is gay or that it was a romantic pairing, this is a continuing pattern of denying and gaslighting the fans that a scene that meant so much to them as an explicitly GAY confession about GAY LOVE is actually just something ‘vague’ and ‘up for interpretation’ WHICH is what hollywood & tv companies has been telling us for fucking years instead of actually including some decent fucking representation! 

I honestly don’t care if op wanted to defend some grown ass men’s comments to make themselves feel better, but to deny the real harm those comments have caused, AND to claim that ‘destiel fans are worse actually’ is just such a shit move and makes me genuinely angry tbh
