Read MoreI think too the idea that so many on ‘your side’ share- that ‘I don’t believe it, but I’ll certainly enjoy it if it happens!’ can cause strong reactions. You get to either be right, or you get your ‘ship. Meanwhile, ‘your side’ either calls them things like ‘unrealistic, delusional, crazy’ or stands by and watches while others do it.You get all the benefits, and none of the risks. You also position yourself as ‘not one of those fans- I’m a *cool* fan’
Anon, that is shitty. Not you; you’re not. I mean that if that’s the case,…
Read Moreim not sure if the conan doyle estate would raise a stink since there are published works of sherlock holmes gay porn from the 70s – i think the famous one is the sexual adventures of sherlock holmes – where badically all the male characters have sex and mrs hudson is young and sits on sherlocks knee (this is what ive heard)
You can’t just tell us things like that and then not give us any pointers…
Read MoreI don’t know if TJLC is true. And I definitely think there are some flaws in the theory. but I don’t think the idea overall is flawed. And I definitely believe in it. But I have never once tried to pass it off as fact? I choose to believe because the show gives me the evidence I need to make that choice. And thats all there is to it for me.
The idea is not flawed! And believing in it is not intrinsically irrational. You’re absolutely…
Read MoreIn response to an earlier anon, the BBC commissioner is called Ben Stephenson. Here are some sources on his stance on gay characters in the BBC: digitalspy(.)co(.)uk/tv/news/a554335/bbc-needs-more-gay-characters-says-drama-controller-ben-stephenson(.)html | bbc(.)co(.)uk/ariel/26340756
Lemme parse those for you guys: Ben Stephenson still after ‘great gay script’: http://www.bbc.co.uk/ariel/26340756 BBC…
Read MoreIn response to that last person. Canon Johnlock would be real progress. Not only in its on existence, but also the fact that it would at least open up doors in media. and that IS REAL progress.
It’s cool. I think that anon knows that. They were just acknowledging that the outcome…
Read MoreThe thing is, I respect people’s choice to not believe in TJLC. If they don’t interpret the show the same way I do…okay then. But what I don’t respect is people that don’t believe that feel a need to inflict that opinion on people that do, are minding their own business and having fun. if you don’t believe fine, share it with others that don’t and bond with them. because people that do believe don’t care that you don’t. they are just enjoying themselves. and same goes other way around.
Precisely! Which, somewhat hilariously, was precisely the point that the original post that kicked all…
Read MoreA few things. The BBC controller (can;t remember his name) is openly gay and wants more queer representation. What the Conan Doyle Estate thinks is irrelevant as Sherlock Holmes is public domain in the UK. Also international handling for BBC Sherlock is done by BBC Worldwide and does not influence local/domestic product such as BBC One. So what other countries think has no affect on what the writers actually do.
I don’t think I knew that about the BBC controller, but that is badass. The…
Read MoreBecause, as we all know social change a progress begins with ‘it would be nice, but I don’t expect change’. Look- not saying this canon jonhlock is the same as ‘real’ social progress, but the ‘just being realistic’ is toxic, and is seen many other places, and I think is what people are reacting to
I can understand that. They can indeed be deadly words. I refer you back to…
