Sherlock Fandom. A Word?

So it’s homophobic to cast Lucy Liu as Watson because then there won’t be gay subtext.

Oh. Okay, so it’s not homophobic when producers give a wink-wink-nod and fetishize gay people, when we exist as long as we don’t have sex, when we exist only as something to be laughed about but never stated? 

That’s harmful. When gay people are only on television to titilliate, when we’re made into jokes. When Sherlock Holmes doesn’t admit to being gay but calls his brother a queen as if it’s a big jolly joke. When a gay woman says she fell in love with a man because he’s just so dashing.

Dude, like. It’s cute that you’re trying to hide your misogyny and your racism but I see you. I also see your homophobia even though you want to pretend you’re all ~radikewl~ and down with us gay folks.
