the term ;; fujoshi/fudanshi
i don't really get how people pinpoint the term 'fujoshi/fudanshi' (going to use fujo/fuda for the sake of keeping it short from now on) as a label that automatically means you fetishize gay men?
to keep it short n' sweet ; fujo/fuda means someone who is into mlm content. that's all there is. it is a label that means you read,,, bl. it doesn't mean that you all of a sudden stalk men and ship them together for the sake of your own enjoyment. and frankly, those stereotypes really are quite ?? dumb. sure, a better term would be 'bl lover' or, something like 'bl reader' but it doesn't quite fit yk? i don't understand the people that automatically not want to associate with people who are fujins, they're just reading g a y shit.
tl;dr fujoshi, fudanshi, fujin, etc, does not mean 'people who fetishize gay relationships, people, etc'. it simply means you like bl.
ty for coming to my ted talk, lol. feel free to voice your own thoughts n opinions; whether you disagree or not.
Fujoshi and fudanshi means rotten girl in Japanese. Calling yourself that in Japan would be the same as calling yourself an ass anywhere else. You like BL, okay, so that's that. It's not a personality trait; it's just an interest. I like classic literature, so I won't label myself as a classic literature lover. I just like literature and that's tha...... reply
yeah. i think the community (here, at least idk know about anywhere else) has grasped the fact that there are and always will be homophobic hypocrites everywhere and not everyone in a group of people who like watching men fuck is defined by some insane batshit fujo who worships yaoi and hates irl gay men or ships them, or hates the lgbtq+ community...... reply
"Stereotypes", as you put it, are either based in some sort of truth or the result of propaganda. And there is no propaganda effort against BL or its readers, so... you do the math. reply
