Queer Fandom and Bad Graphic Design

Kiki’s YouTube Recs

Gaywatch

Brittany Diamond is an avid Kirk/Spock shipper that I found via The Commentary on TOS for KS, originally published in 2009 on Fanfiction.net. Gaywatch is her second YouTube adventure and she currently posts regular reaction videos to Star Trek: The Original Series and The Untamed, with plans to add more shows and movies to the lineup in the future. She is also very responsive to questions on Tumblr.

Welcome to Gaywatch, where we watch gay things.

Are They Gay?

Addressing queerbaiting, popular ships, and the subtext we’ve come to know and love, Are They Gay has been publishing videos since 2015. I found the channel recently via the “Last Minute Gays” video, linked below. This is a fun channel that started with Kirk/Spock and has branched into LGBTQ representation in several fandoms.

Were the writers like, “what if in the last season, we did GAYS?”

Rowan Ellis

Self proclaimed queer, feminist, and geek, this channel has it all. From books and fanfic to tv and movies, Rowan has shared her takes on queer fandom for 6 years. My favorite is “definitive proof captain marvel is gay” but all this creator’s content is golden.

Fact number one? Carol and Maria are in a relationship. They are raising a child together. That is fact number one. Fight me.
