Should heterosexual people read/write homosexual pornography?
Respectful responses only, please be kind in the comments.
As a lesbian woman I think heterosexual people shouldn't write homosexual pornography (including yaoi/yuri). I see it as a form of cultural appropriation and disrespectful fetishization of homosexual individuals. I think that homosexuality should definitely be portrayed and consumed by heterosexual people in other forms of media, such as non-sexual comics, television, movies, etc. as long as it's respectful.
However, I recognize that this is an issue that concerns both heterosexual and homosexual individuals so I would love to hear the opinions of other homosexuals and heterosexuals.
p.s When I say homosexuals I also include bisexuals and pansexuals, since I think they can have authentic homosexual experiences. I would also love to hear some opinions from bi/pan folks since they have a unique perspective on the matter.
Summary, I disagree. I think the problem is perhaps more with people bringing fetishization or stereotypes into the real world than the media itself. But respectful representation needs to exist in abundance!
To start with, I wish that there were more respectful responses in the comments. There is some awful hateful stuff being said... So I wanted ...... 2 reply
