I'm a little puzzled by this myself. I admit I haven't watched SPN for a couple of seasons. I was thinking about getting back into it, and after watching an episode the other night I was moved to go Google Dean/Cas, just to see what the status of their relationship was on the show. I came across this quote, supposedly from Misha Collins:
"You know, we know what it is, what’s going on. We don’t talk about it. The actors don’t, Jensen and I don’t. But we’re all perfectly aware of how the relationship is, the writers are completely aware of how it’s being written. It may be unspoken but that doesn’t mean it’s not there or not true."
If they're going to play around with shippers that way, they can expect people to wonder if Dean is perhaps bi, and if he might eventually become more comfortable with that. It seems like a logical question to me. (And I will add that I get really annoyed with shows that tease m/m ships as a sort of joke, a la "The Big Bang.") But perhaps I'm missing context, as it's not my fandom *shrugs*.
