The definition of queerbaiting has varied heavily (Nordin, 2015), perhaps due to the subjective and evolving multi-dimensional nature of the phenomenon.

酷儿诱饵的定义差异很大（Nordin，2015）， 可能是由于该现象的主观性和不断发展的多维性质。

Previous studies have used virtual ethnographic and close reading methodologies to explore individual views and examples of queerbaiting (see Nordin, 2015; Brennan, 2018a).

先前的研究使用虚拟人种学和细读方法来探索酷儿诱饵的个人观点和例子（参见 Nordin，2015；Brennan， 2018a）。

Queerbaiting was thus originally understood and coined by queer activists as an unrealised queer subtext or plot used to lure queer audiences (Nordin, 2015).

因此，酷儿诱饵最初被酷儿活动人士理解和创造为一种未实现的酷儿潜台词或用来吸引酷儿观众的情节（Nordin，2015）。

This is especially important, as it has been argued that outside of social media sites such as Tumblr and Twitter – where fan and queer activism is high – queerbaiting may not be recognised (Nordin, 2015).

这一点尤其重要， 因为有人认为， 在 Tumblr 和 Twitter 等社交媒体网站之外——粉丝和酷儿激进主义很高——酷儿诱饵可能不会被认可（Nordin，2015）。
