Funny that you bring up sexuality headcanons, because I've actually seen those in particular devolve into claims that if you don't think that, for example, Wei Wuxian is bi, you're engaging in bi erasure/biphobia. Still without textual evidence or an evidence-based argument of any sort! Just, now we're calling people bigots over it. I guess it's because fandom spaces are often also social justice spaces, and some wires get crossed? People confusing stuff that they don't like with oppression? Idk, I guess that's a whole different can of worms. But I think it definitely comes from that same place of "well I like it, so". It's almost like sometimes people think that headcanons have to be collective or they're invalidated somehow, so maybe that's where that desire to push really personal iddy stuff onto everyone else comes from. Especially when it's a big part of their identity that they think is being invalidated.
