tbh i think there’s a problem with how some of you see queer rep where you seem to think queer rep means “a queer character being in a happy m/m or f/f relationship by the end of canon” rather than just “a character who is canonically queer”
this is shown by the countless occasions where i’ve seen people act like queer characters don’t ‘count’ as rep if they don’t have a same-gender significant other, where they acted like a character suddenly stops being queer rep if they were in a same-gender relationship that did not last (particularly if it ended badly), and especially those of you who have viewed multisexual characters in m/f relationships as not being ‘real queer rep’.
like…don’t get me wrong, it’s 100% okay to want to see queer characters in f/f or m/m relationships in canon. it’s okay to have slash and femslash ships and be disappointed when they don’t make it to the end. but please stop acting like a character’s queerness is dependent on them being in a f/f or m/m relationship and that they’re suddenly not queer the second that’s not happening. this is especially bad when it comes to canon multisexual characters (who are still queer no matter who they date) but it’s also really devaluing to canon gay and lesbian characters as well.
a queer character is still a queer character if they’re single. they’re still queer if they have a break-up. they’re still queer if they’re multisexual and end up in a m/f relationship. queerness is not a thing that comes and goes depending on who someone is dating at the moment.
