do you ever see yaoi fans that get weirded out by actual gay people?
I knew some girls that also liked bl and were weirded out by a lesbian and then were basically??? fetishising some bi guys we knew? needless to say I cut them off and was super disgusted by those girls. I dont know if thats a double standard or something needless to say people are weird. Have you guys seen anything like this before? I know its a thing that some "hyper masculine straight guys" like lesbians but get defensive around gay guys.
Yeah......... I had this classmate who read mm books (not yaoi) and we started bonding over that when she asked me what I felt about lesbians. I told her that they felt the same to me though I didn't really read any les fiction. She seemed really dissapointed and also made a disgusted face...... and expressed (not in the exact words) that female co...... reply
Fact: Yaoi has nothing to do with LBGT. This is the most common believe of foreigners. yaoi is written by women for women, most of them straights. Some japanese woman use to fetishize gay men/relationships. This is why yaoi was created. The "Bara"/ML genre is the one written by gays for gays. Bara/ML is the LBGT related.

I've never *seen* a yaoi fan in my entire life, ever, I think.
I know a few young women who give their pets names like "Kiba" and "Sasuke" but who knows what's on their reading list.
Online tho... yeah, wow. The cognitive dissonance is insane.
I bet they're just young and opinionated, they're not a dangerous or powerful opressive force, it's j...... reply
I have seen many instances of it online but not in real life. Well, fujoshis has never really been my kind of people since a lot of them are immature teenagers. I love when I actually get to talk to someone who is more mature. reply
I enjoy BL a lot but I do NOT fetishize real gay men at all lol. I used to in like 6th grade?? But that was several years ago and I just grew out of that weird phase where I was like “omg !!!! Gay guys are so cute!!!” I just find it cringe now LOL. I enjoy BL a lot still and even mm novels, but I separate that from real life. I’ve always supp...... reply
fortunately no, not in real life at least. in the internet, more than i want to see. not on this website though i dont really 'talk' to other people. sites like tumblr have too many straight fujoshis that need a talking all right.
yaoi is a fantasy that people read to have fun and i have no problem in that. I enjoy them too and obv i dont support...... reply
Never met somebody irl, nor online tbh, only heard about people being like this. It is prolly due to me blocking or only interacting with those that seem open minded.
I don't mind fujoshi at all, nor being a cishet and liking homosexual stuff, or even getting off by it. IT is only natural. But being a homophobe and making people unfomfortable is s...... reply
I was very much like that when i was younger, but soon realised it was toxic behaviour and decided to change how i acted. It was more so because at them time everyone made fun of me for still holding hands w my friends, making them slow dance with me etc and i guess i thought it wasnt normal?? reply
I don't know anyone that reads bl in real life so I haven't experienced it there. But on basically every site ever, yes. It makes me feel really gross to be honest. It can feel like I am an accomplice when it comes to their fetishizing gay men because I also read BL and love it. I have sometimes tried to correct people if they say something wrong, ...... 1 reply
