when the gay pals pressure you into queering it up, by getting really short bangs or a septum ring, for example.

The widespread fan observance of a fanon queer (relation)ship as part of an accepted body of work in a piece of media due to an a priori assumption that the characters within the fanon (relation)ship are or will be confirmed queer and circular argumentation where the inevitability/conclusion of the (relation)ship is assumed as true, often to convince or mislead a non-viewing audience that the show includes and delivers on queer representation.
Queer-leading is done in place of providing or supporting actualized queer representation in media and often leads to the phenomenon where individuals begin engaging with a piece of media expecting queer representation and then get disappointed when media that never promised queer representation fails to deliver on that representation.

Person 1: "I can't believe ABC's 9-1-1 keeps queerbaiting us! How can it give us bi-Buck, but not canon buddie?"
Person 2: "Girl, that's not queerbaiting; it's queer-leading. 9-1-1 and ABC never promised canon buddie; fans on Twitter just misled you into thinking it was endgame."

A word that used to mean 'gay or lesbian', probably excluding bisexual and pansexual people. Nowadays it's a catch all term used to mean 'transgender, nonbinary or gender nonconforming'. Personally I do not like the widespread use of this term because transgenderism and gender conformity are both issues that are important enough to be treated separately, even though they can of course intersect. It's a bit like having a catch-all phrase that means 'woman or black person or both'. Also encourages gender essentialist thinking which is a problem on the modern 'left'.
Person A) Bob is queer.
Person B) Does that mean Bob is transgender, or gender nonconforming, or both?
Person A) I don't know.

A phenomenon wherein self-described leftwing, queer, and LGBT "allies" condemn and demonize heterosexual fan service for normal people while maintaining explicit double standards for homosexual, trans, and female-oriented fanservice. Such individuals will often engage in gaslighting tactics, equating physically attractive female characters to pornography or maintain that ugly female characters are better because of "realism", even in otherwise fantastical settings and despite the fact that much of fiction is meant to be a form of escapism. This is a bizarro mirror image of conservative Christian puritanism that such groups often found themselves opposed to in previous decades when they campaigned for sexual liberation.
"OMG, what do you care what Mary Jane Watson in Spider-Man 2 looks like? Shut up, you're a porn-brained incel."
"You have pronouns and pride flags in your twitter bio and your likes are full of futa, why are you such a queer puritanist?"
