I don't want to see Sam or Dean in a relationship. I really don't.
Not because it messes up my Wincest or because... actually, I don't know why non-Wincest people don't want to see Sam and Dean in a relationship.
I don't want there to be any romance because in my experience, it doesn't work. It sounds forced or doesn't make sense or any other number of reasons. It' very rare that I like romantic relationships between characters on TV or in a book.
So yeah, when it came out that their would be recurring female characters in s3 I was biting my nails and praying that I'd still like the show afterwards (because nothing gets me off a show faster than bad romance). I haven't seen s3 yet, but what I heard sounds pretty good. So here's to hoping.
Also, I like pretty much all the female characters that appeared in s1 and s2 (even Cassie) and wouldn't mind seeing them again. Even if they turn out to be romantic interests.
Yes, there are some bat-shit crazy people in fandom who'd rather kill all the female characters before one of them might maybe under circumstances be considered a love interest but those are a very small part. Quiet vocal, yes, but very small.
I do hope that Kripke and the others know this. I agree with that argument about writing letters when you hate something but still, given how well-liked Katie Cassidy and Lauren Cohen are now in fandom, surely the SN crew know that not everyone's that fanatic?
