( No Title )
I wish more people in fandom understood (or would make the distinction between) a character who is queer coded, and a character they have a queer reading for.
I think that many fans do understand the difference, but insisting that a character is queer coded gives them a feeling of the right to enforce their interpretation on others in a way that a queer reading does not.
I saw this start popping up in my Fandoms like 6 years ago, and now it’s everywhere. Queer readings are fun! But it is not the same as queer coding.
