It could be misogyny, or it could be the fact that most people are attracted to men and what's better than seeing 1 man? 2 men of course.
Also some manga/hwa/hua fans are lowkey lesbophobic as well so it might be that too.
I think most readers(wc r females/gaes) r just more inclined to goon on hot guys. For straight male...well they go for straight smut too. So ig it's really mostly down on the preference of the majority..
Yess, I was just having a conversation about this, this world is very male dominated even in the queer community where everyone is supposed to equally accepted, I think bl kinda dominates the queer community because there is so much of a variety, you can read about twinks, bears etc, you don’t get that kind of variety with gl
A 100% rooted in patriarchy never let anyone convince you otherwise. Cuz I've seen Thai bl "fans" crash tf out just cause their favourite bl series had a lesbian couple kissing for 2 seconds. And the worst part is, they don't even realise how homophobic they are being lmao. Another hot take is that there's a shocking number of bl fans that are homphobic af towards irl gay ppl.
Why do every mangago users keep trying to find random problems in order to use the word misogyny. Buzzword buzzword, holy shit get some new vocabulary i see the words misogyny and patriarchy on this site 20 times a day
Maybe because patriarchy and misogyny aren't "buzzwords" when they're describing actual patterns. If you're seeing those words 20 times a day, you might want to consider whether the problem is the vocabulary... or the subject matter.
As for new vocabulary, may I suggest: denial, dismissal, and willful ignorance?
grow up.
am i the only one who thinks that bl being more popular than gl is sort of rooted from misogyny what abt yall though ? do u guys have any explanation why bl is more popular than gl
