A-fucking-men for god's sake. This is how anyone is supposed to think!!!!!
I'll print and stick this everywhere until everyone gets a fucking hint.
FIRSTLY, It’s hilarious how 99 percent of you either haven’t watched the show or you haven’t seen it in years and are just jumping on the bandwagon to believe a rumor started by fans whose ship did not get validated by him.
Jensen Ackles is NOT homophobic.
You know where this rumor has started? The fans of the ship have started it. And why? Because Jensen was true to his character? If the character was written straight, and was written in a way that Dean perceives Castiel as his FRIEND or brother ( as he has himself mentioned) Jensen will HAVE to speak for it as it is. That is how Dean Winchester was written, loyal, a good human, a badass hunter, a selfless being, who loves his family, and most importantly his brother to death. He’s loyal to a fault and once he befriends someone he doesn’t leave their side. THAT is what Dean Winchester is. And that is how he played him. Jensen Ackles has played characters with varied sexual preferences before, you could probably research - He’s done so with Patrick Dempsey. More than anything Jensen was just being true to his character - Whether on conventions or as he plays it. Dean was written straight and Jensen has always maintained he’s played him with that in mind because it was originally written.
Last I checked it is not a crime to be straight and neither is it a crime to speak for a character you have played for 15 yrs. What he speaks for his FICTIONAL CHARACTER does not define his real persona.
Moreover, even if Castiel has feelings for Dean, IT IS okay for Dean to nor feel the same. One person can love another without it being romantic. No matter how Cas views his relation with Dean or perceives his feelings for Dean. Dean Winchester has EVERY RIGHT TO FEEL DIFFERENTLY. Secondly
Hypothetically even if Dean did feel the same about Cas, mind you EVEN IF (I DO NOT believe he does) BUT IF HE DOES - HOW do you expect him to respond. Castiel is basically giving him a goodbye speech. JUST seconds ago he told Dean about a deal he made - with the price being his life. Billie is knocking on one door, The Empty is coming from another. Dean had no time to react. HE was stunned, shocked and numb. He has no time to let the news of Cas’s deal to sink in, then Cas is praising him and talking of the good Dean has done, of how Dean should value himself. MIND YOU, THIS is not the first time Cas has said I love you, he’s said it to Dean and all of the Winchesters a while now. So this isn’t news to Dean. But it is news that Cas is about to sacrifice himself, his friend is about to die in a matter of minutes. God forbid you are in a similar position with SO MUCH going on, will you be able to react or do ANYTHING in the span of 15 seconds? GET FREAKING REAL. Since you don’t watch the show, let me tell you - Dean has always reacted dumbfoundedly when praised or his positive aspects highlighted. THAT is how Dean always has been. His low self esteem and self deprecation always makes it harder for him to respond to praise. If you would have bothered to see the full episode, you’d see Sam praised him earlier and Dean did not accept or found it hard to accept the praise. THAT Is just how Dean is. I think Cas and Dean even without talking know this, that the way they view their relation or fondness for each other is different. Castiel knew this. HE SAID IT. THE SCRIPT SAID IT.
So just stop accusing a good person, an incredible actor for doing something he hasn’t done. IT IS NOT HIS FAULT that all of you do not understand that love can be one sided. Relationships can go far and beyond romance. Relations can be profound in friendships, they can be platonic. NOT EVERYTHING IS SEXUAL OR ROMANTIC. This is in no way, any disrespect to the people who feel represented, who are from the LGBTQ community or even who aren’t but feel strongly for it. I DO TOO. I stand for it, I want it to be as normal in the world, as breathing is. BUT by bullying a character and most importantly a PERSON/ A HUMAN BEING for just being honest to how his character is written, how he was told to play it. AND for simply speaking his part of the truth to the fans so as not to wrongly bait them is NOT HOMOPHOBIC. If at every convention Jensen is questioned about a ship or the character’s sexuality is specified to be something he knows it isn’t - SHOULD he just lie to you to please you? When he knows Dean was NOT written like that? As shippers you have every right to feel validated, and to view your ship the way you see fit. BUT then Jensen has the same rights over a character he knows since it originated. Once again - feelings can be one sided and relations/love can be platonic… A joke or accusation that started in the fandom just because Jensen chose to stay true to his character and not lie has turned too big and notorious. PLEASE STOP. Jensen Ackles does not deserve this.
the brown eldest daughter conditioned response to suppress thought expression coz either it's gonna be blown out of proportions as hysterical reactions or the trauma is gonna be trivialized. sometimes both
As opposed to what Puki?
Feeling very unethical today, might spread hate
Yes.

sometimes i think about the golden record and i want to cry
I read this fic with Destiel on ao3 and I can't find it anymore. It's where Dean, Sam and Cas retire, with Sam going back to college, Dean and Cas moving in together. Cas works in a soup kitchen, and dean is a mechanic. It ends with them having their first kiss. Anyone has an idea? It also has a dog and a swordfish in it somewhere.
Damn straight
currently writing my dissertation on Holmes and sexuality and thinking about how wild it is that Elementary a show where Watson is a woman and Holmes a man (meaning they are statistically as a male and female lead of a show incredibly likely to end up having something romantic between them), still managed to make Holmes and Watson more obviously friends than BBC Sherlock in which they are both men and just so ridiculously Not Friends that it is almost funny, like it is genuinely mind blowing. like I’m sorry but how hard is it to just not make them gay if you don’t want to make them gay like my guys
I found this on my dash again and this time I'm reblogging
sorry everyone
straight boys are weak and pathetic, queer girls walk into the ladies changing room and see ten women naked, do they stare? do they say something inappropriate? do they make them uncomfortable? no because they have the common fucking sense to recognise when a situation is sexual and that people deserve the most basic level of respect to not be harassed, yet here we are banning shorts and low cut tops in school because straight boys are weak and pathetic
Mind block - Me thinking nothing else would suffice the filter that says – “good enough to write upon”. Then it hit me, how about I write on the mindblock itself? Yes, I know, very original.
Read the rest here.
Honest comments, guys. That's all I want.
Chaotic neutral. bi. writer. The (b)log of everything that catches my magpie-ish fancy. How many fandom references in your bio is too many?
