I don't watch Teen Wolf and I'm reblogging this: I Am Stiles: A Campaign for Bi Visibility in Teen Wolf. The FAQ makes a careful distinction between shippers wanting to see their favorite pairing canonized and bisexual fans wanting to see a very important part of their identity acknowledged as a real thing onscreen, not just used as a meta-teaser for the fanbase. I have no arguments against this idea.
Succinctly put, it is an effort started by notmissmarple to bring the issue over overall bisexual visibility to the attention of Jeff Davis and the production team of MTV's Teen Wolf . . . I've seen so many posts going around by amazing fans, amazing writers, talking about their own experiences and their past, and how much it would mean for them to see a bisexual main character on the show . . . Jeff Davis himself has insinuated that he was leaving Stiles' sexuality open and perhaps hinting at his bisexuality intentionally. Do I think this project will result in him coming out in the show? Well, no. But hopefully it'll at least communicate to Jeff and others on the production team how important it is to us to have that representation.
So: if you watch Teen Wolf, read this LJ, and haven't yet checked out the Stiles Campaign, go and do that. It sucks having people believe you don't exist.
