I've thought this for years ever since witnessing the catastrophic meltdowns people had when Sh//iro Volt//ron was revealed to be gay but truly... why does fandom get so weird about masculine characters potentially just being gay.

#like I'm all for bi/pan hcs but sometimes with really masculine or man's man kinda male characters I feel like people just REFUSE #to think he can be gay due to internalized shit they don't wanna acknowledge #it happened so hard with sh///iro like people were screaming crying malding that their fantasy of him being with a woman like them was gone #bc in a patriarchal society masculine men are seen as being that way for the benefit of women or w/e #and i feel like i've seen that here and there with guys like wr//iothesley and alh///aitham too who i personally hc as gay and have had #people get annoying at me about it #guys who in canon are like largely avoided by other people and have very few genuine connections who see them for who they are with the one #that will always go to bat for them explicitly being another man who sees beyond the surface which i find significant #idunno this was just on my mind recently as i saw some stupid shit and also was reminded v//oltron existed #|| ooc
