I just learned of a specific moment in the latest Doctor Who episode (I've been too busy to keep up). And if anyone uses it to essentially go 'See! He can't be ace!' or treat it as a 'win' for queer rep like we aces aren't queer...
Folks, we can tell people are hot. We just don't find them hot to us subjectively on a personal level.
I'm not saying there can't be interpretations, I'm saying please don't use it as an excuse to erase ours.
