why does josei smut sexualize women more than men
i read male gaze hentai, i see detailed drawings of fully naked girls blushing crossing their eyes screaming out and everything. they barely show the guy and if they do he's always fully clothed and expressionless
im like "ah makes sense this is for straight guys" i try reading smut written by straight women thinking it would be the complete opposite. its literally the same thing. they dont even bother drawing men's nipples
like im not some porn addict but it makes me super confused. do women just not find men's bodies attractive? they have no problem sexualizing men in yaoi so why not in straight romance?
Lowkey I know what u mean in straight smut designed for women I often feel like the guys aren’t even enjoying it sometimes?

My assumption is to bc they wanna cater to both audiences. Hentai or overall porn industry is very much male dominated and women will read male catered series but the opposite? Rarely. Add a male gaze fmc and boom you attracted male audience as well meaning more sales ¯_(ツ)_/¯ reply
Idk I think they compensate that by making it more about the situation, or being a bit more story based. Thats kind of the reason I don’t really enjoy it that much. I’d I want smut that genuinely is good and actually feels sexual not silly I go for novels. I definitely recommend novels for smut. And if you want to find sexy guys it depends on y...... reply
