queer baiting

When delusional people in fandoms want to say "I'm butthurt my favorite pairing didn't happen", but they want to sound noble while saying so.

"I can't believe those two didn't end up together after so much teasing!"
"They barely even talked to each other-"
"QUEER BAITING!!!"

Queer-Baiting

Queer baiting is a marketing strategy that utilizes fictional media and/or entertainment to draw attention to LGBT/Queer members in order to benefit and/or make money while attracting the attention of more people.

Person A: Have you heard about the celebrity who posted a sexually suggestive photo of themselves with other females with the statement "I love girls"?

Person B: Yeah, it's a little odd because she isn't even a lesbian? It's like Queer-Baiting.
