2 days agoPeople are really accusing Jonathan Bailey of 'straight-baiting'
Essentially what it refers to is someone or something presenting as straight but in reality is not. It's the exact opposite of 'queer-baiting', where someone or something presents as being queer without actually identifying as such. In 2018, people said Brokeback Mountain was an example of 'straight-baiting' as its advertising used the film's mixed-gendered couples in its marketing. This appeared to have lured numerous people in who probably wouldn't have gone to a gay film had they known that was at the its core.
