Is being a fujoshi wrong?
Okay so yesterday I admitted to myself and to a public discord server that I was a fujoshi cause I was a fan of reading mangas with romance between two men. Shortly after I got replies saying that it was fetishizing and It was bad to fetishize that kinda thing. I apologized stating that I didn’t know it was fetishizing and I thought the term fujoshi was defined as a simple definition of a girl liking and reading mangas that has romance between two men. Is being a fujoshi really bad? I dunno If I used the term wrong or if I didn’t properly understand what being a fujoshi is, but I really need some clarification about this.
If I start a whole conflict about this I’m sorryyyy┗( T﹏T )┛ I really don’t know anything about fujoshi
being one doesn't automatically equal to you fetishizing, but fujoshis are pretty known for fetishizing hence why i don't recommend you use the term as the name has already created a double meaning for itself. in my opinion, i honestly don't see why its important to create or label yourself as something just because you like to read bl. reply
Most fujoshis do fetishize gay men, a lot of people are going to assume you are one of those mfs even if you are not so it is better not to call yourself that cause it is just straight out weird. reply
Fujoshi is a girl who enjoys reading bl. There's nothing wrong about it, but next time don't call yourself that, Sorry but it's cringy, u even said u don't know anything about Fujoshi but admitted that you are one. reply
Y'all really saying "just say you 'enjoy bl'" as if that isn't literally code for being a fujo at this point, lmao.
If you say shit like that you're for all intents and purposes going to be considered a fujo and as such are going to be treated like one. reply
Anything can be fetishized. Feet, hair, hands, height, weight, age, etc. I think some people think of "Fetishizing" and "Fujoshis" in the same spectrum because they see it as "Well, you're turned on by gay men, so you're fetishizing gay men" But I personally think there's a line, although thin, between the two. For example, I am attracted to tall g...... 6 reply
New gen fujoshi term is a person the fetishizes mlm so just consider yourself a person that enjoys mlm, liking mlm doesnt need a title like fujoshi anyways reply
being a fujoshi isnt really a bad thing but the term has been extremely westernized/changed, people think fujoshi means a girl that fetishizes mlm (which it doesn’t). reply
