I wish straight people knew how heartbreaking queerbaiting actually is for us. Like, you’re not just teasing a relationship. You’re dangling equal representation in front of our faces, being treated like human beings in front of our faces, with amazing and varied characters whose storylines are more than how straight people kill us (bullying) disease kills us (hiv scare) or we kill ourselves due to the tragedy of our story.
You dangle it and go “am I gonna? Am I gonna? ….Lol no, a show with gay lead characters?! No one would *ever* watch that!” and don’t see why it hurts us.
Legit. The message it sends is “nobody wants to see people like you”, no matter how much anyone says otherwise.

And worst of all are the people who seem to think that queerbaiting us is somehow just as good as or the same thing as actual real representation

ZOOTOPIA POST #4: NICK’S APARTMENT. In the earlier version of the movie, the story revolves around Nick’s point of view instead of Judy’s. He had a sequence showing his dingy apartment at the basement of a building. I had to pull up references from photos of utility rooms, dismal service floors, and abandoned building basements to design his space. Fun.
