'THE PA IS UNBEARABLE': SUPERNATURAL FANS SHARE THEIR FURY AND HEARTBREAK AS THE CW SHOW FALLY NFIRMS A GAY ROMANCE AFTER 12 YEARS OF TEASG - THEN PROMPTLY KILLS OFF ONE OF THE CHARACTERS

Sure, fans love to wre about the male/male pairg of Dean and the angel Castiel (monly known as “Dtiel”), but the show self don’t have a great track rerd when to reprentg gay men. Supernatural is no stranger to queerbag (let’s be real here: there is a lot of “no homo” humor between Sam and Dean), but recently there have been hts that Dean and Cas might jt make the leap to non romance. Was Ackl’ script alteratn another ht of possible homophobia, like when he refed to answer a fan’s qutn about Dtiel?

Dean’s uber-macho behavur and slightly homophobic attu are often terpreted as signs of nial, and many longtime viewers feel wouldn’t be much of a stretch to adm that Dean Wchter is to dus. Supernatural fans are all over the place after last week’s episo nfirmed the show’s longstandg gay ship … and also nfirmed s terrible handlg of LGBTQ characters.

The wrg self even played to , wh gay jok and circumstanc that would lead anyone to raise an eyebrow. Unwillg to discs the subtext of his character at fan nventns and opposed to slash fictn that puts his characters homo love, his stance agast the Dtiel ship has been so adamant that lerary journal articl have been wrten about .

SUPERNATURAL GAY ROMANCE BOOKS

Worst of all, the Dtiel nfirmatn scene falls to one of the most timels trop for gay characters, dubbed “Bury Your Gays. ” Acrdg to the trope, gay/queer characters are simply more expendable, and th more likely to be killed off on film and televisn seri, often via exceptnal circumstanc. As poted out by the Daily Dot, given that Castiel was sucked to a hell dimensn right after clarg his love, the origal choice also led some to acce the show of followg the "bury your gays" trope (whereby gay characters are nsired dispensable—though this se, Castiel survived until nearly the seri fale).

After the most recent episo of the long-nng horror drama Supernatural, one of the stars of the seri nfirms that the angel Castiel is gay. Supernatural star nfirms that Castiel is gay.

So Castiel mak his homosexual claratn of love and then di, which plays to a timels Hollywood trope of 'Kill the gays.

Dean don't appear to return Castiel's feelgs, which embodi the "unrequed gay love" trope that is often ed to monize LGBTQ people who velop feelgs for their heterosexual peers. Then, Castiel is killed, which embodi yet another harmful trope: "Bury your gays.

The fact that he's immediately taken to Hell after nfsg his feelgs also suggts a e-and-effect seri of events: If you're gay, you go to Hell.

In fact, Castiel throws Dean agast a wall before he's taken, which certaly isn't unual for the pair -- vlence is par for the urse when they need to save each other om big bads -- but the overall amg of the scene is wildly homophobic. Unfortunately, this scene don't read as anic storytellg or even fan service -- reads as homophobia masqueradg as reprentatn. As The CW show Supernatural heads toward s seri fale after 15 years on air, longtime fans are celebratg and spairg a double plot twist the third-to-last the episo, which aired last week, the character Castiel (played by Misha Colls) adms his love for Dean Wchter (Jensen Ackl) — and then tragilly whiplash-ducg end of their relatnship has many viewers feelg heartbroken, but a few are fur that the show nfirmed the gay romance before immediately takg away.
