The current perpetual outrage in Supernatural fandom boils down to "Sam is having sex with a girl that isn't me, so I am pissed off because he is supposed to save himself until I am magically transported into the show and/or I am projecting my stalkery lust for the actor onto the character and plan to marry Jared one day, so bitch better step off! Also, she is a complete whore and is not good enough* to give him an orgasm, which I don't understand is a biological reaction and therefore think must always (and only) be an emotionally fulfilling Event that is shared between loving, pure of heart soul mates who will be together forever!!!!!!!!!"
You can substitute "Dean" and "Jensen" in the place of "Sam" and "Jared" in that mess of a paragraph any time Dean has a sex scene, too.
Seriously. There are people out there discussing gender issues with the show, but that's not what ever causes the big hubbub.
*which is its whole separate gender issue regarding female spn fandom's hatred of women, but - like viv - I like to pretend that all doesn't exist because I deal with my own crap in real life and turn to tv and the internet for fun and games.
and objectification of hot people because I'm shallow and a hypocrite.
