the funniest thing about the homophobic Spn fans and ones that despise Destiel and Cas being queer is that they seem to think that was the first big queer statement that Spn made which is insane considering;
-Spn had casual representation of men kissing men with Crowley and Bobby pretty early on, and they don’t make it into a massive “ha! Gayyyy!” Joke despite the fact this was the 2000s when that was the main type of humour.
-Casual gay rep with the Sam and Dean cosplayers, and the Dean and Cas actresses in “Fanfiction”, again both of these examples are actually incredibly sweet.
-Sam doesn’t bat an eyelid when deans siren is a man even before the siren mentions what Dean really wanted was a brother
-Gabriel flirting with just about everything that moves
-Charlie. Which has gotta be one of the best queer women I’ve seen on screen representation wise.
-Godstiel killing a homophobic pastor for spreading the wrong message.
-Dean actually being pretty proud of the fact he thought a gay guy had flirted with him to the point that he’s visibly saddened when he finds out it was a ruse.
-“a study in werewolf transgenderism”
-Cas taking the form of a man AND the form of a woman.
This show was actually doing queer rep consistently. Was it always perfect? No. Has some of it aged questionably? Yeah a little. But was this, at its core, a very popular show making sure to represent its fanbase in a respectful way? Hell yeah it was. So how the fuck homophobes managed to miss the obvious allyship of this show is beyond me.
