Soon, there will be no walls left

Okay, right, the lack of female fans was atrocious, I was seriously expecting more crossplayers and somebody to be genderswapped Dean and Sam and stuff, the lack was disturbing, and it was particularly awful that the ghost actress was a Hooters waitress instead of a fangirl there fangirling, but I do wonder, um.

Was the multiplicity of Deans and Sams, and particularly the elevation of, a recognition that multiple interpretations are possible and valid? I got the feeling that maybe the gay Dean and Sam cosplayers were Kripke going, "Okay, your wincest Dean and Sam are not how I think of Dean and Sam but if it works for you..." Was that? Possibly intended as a conciliatory message?

(Though why Girl Dean and Girl Sam and Drag King Dean and Drag King Sam could not have been part of that multiplicity is beyond me...)

Agreed with the lack of female fans, it was kind of skeevy. It seemed like Becky was practically the only one there, though I think there might have been one or two crossplayers mixed into the crowd. Alas.
