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.
