Oh, that makes sense. I would consider Xena pretty queercoded. And the ending of Some Like It Hot is pretty on the nose. I guess queerbaiting to me felt like Lexa getting killed RIGHT AFTER she and Clarke finally had sex, although I still get JUST SO ANGRY when I think about it I might not be clearheaded. But the actress apparently had to/wanted to leave the show (I think she went to the Walking Dead prequel?), they wanted to yank heartstrings, so they killed her off. But IDK if that counts as baiting, since they did actually have a love scene.
