Yeah, "queerbaiting" to me sounds like all those shows from the 90s/00s that would have two same-sex characters be overly friendly with each other and they would get tons of slash fics about them on fanfiction sites lol I think the logic might be it was acceptable back then because it was either that or nothing, but these days full LGBTQ+ romances in media is accepted so the past "queerbaiting" isn't relevant anymore. Or something. Just spitballin'. Idk with fictional characters it could be a way for thr creators to let the fans decide for themselves. Like poison in SF. Capcom has flip flopped back and forth on her but at one time iirc they said they where gonna let everyone just decide for themself if she was trans or not. --- Cid- "looks like that overgrown lobster just got served!"
