This is what being a fujoshi in 2024 is like

"You wouldn't last an hour in the asylum where they raised me" is what I answer about how being a swiftie is

i know we make fun of aatwt here but it is legitimately so fucking funny how SCANDLIZED them and their tiktok friends get about shingou. theyre like THATS SUCH A FUCKED UP SHIP WAAAAHHHH WHY WOULD YOU LIKE THAT and its like hello? hello??? defense/prosecution? the thing we do here? doomed lovers? one of them literally fucking killed the other? what is more homoerotic than watching the fucking life fade from the eyes of your nemesis? watching his blood spill onto his lapel and stain his clothes and know it was your hand that did it? the fucking shoulder bullet? the physical weight of your dead lover, who you killed, staying there behind flesh and bone for fifteen years, until your own demise? haunting you? paining you? poisoning you?

THEY LITERALLY HAVE A SON? TOGETHER??? THEY RAISED A CHILD?

two characters that are obviously together but i don't feel like i can ship because they're like real people to me. its like rpf i cant

[francy-sketches]

Doing yaoi research on asoiaf fandom rn it's actually kinda surprising to me that joffrey/robb isn't really a thing I feel like that's obvious toxic yaoi material...like not saying I ship it or anything but it feels like a no brainer...if this was a more yaoi oriented fandom I feel like it'd be a thing

i genuinely cannot comprehend how some people yearn for blatantly hetero and/or unstated celebs to be queer when there are SO MANY existing artists that are openly queer and ik this is a basic take but im only saying this because i recently realized that i listen to a shit ton of queer musicians and i dont even actively seek them out. like, i just accidentally stumbled upon tons of really good queer musicians, some with queer centric music but many without. i didnt even ask for this. so why are people itching to put a label on basic white singer #25 when trans breakcore bangers are RIGHT THERE.

something about both of Theo’s former boy best friends fitting the same archetype in the story and therefore both being Kitsey’s type

I mean the fact is, people who want Gay Eddie will happily raise us the voices of violently homophobic individuals because they're on your side. So you can write all the poorly formatted essays you want on how important Eddie coming out as gay is, but unless you're all going to do the work to make the fandom welcoming to mlm again, you're all just Fujoshi's in the same old font.

“you’re all just Fujoshi’s in the same old font” <- did you read what you wrote before sending it because this is the funniest sentence i have ever read in my life

[yinyuedijun]

wow okay so 146 chapters later I've caught up to wind breaker. I read that all for suo crumbs and only got that, just crumbs no backstory nothing else 😔 also if you had told me 3 days ago that this series has some of the most positive and earnest queer representation I'd ever see in a shounen manga, I'd have called you a lying liar. but this series has some of the most positive and earnest queer representation I've ever seen in a shounen manga so huge W there

[milkbreadtoast]

random but i resolved to post abt it every time i find a webtoon that I enjoy... and lately I've been having fun reading this one...

*rubs nose* heh... I do dabble in het from time to time... no but seriously it's a p straightforward lighthearted enemies to lovers romcom, not groundbreaking or anything yet im over here kicking my feet and giggling the main couple is SO cute to me... i luv them... I actually couldnt wait to find out what happens next so ive been slowly reading ahead in the kor whenever i have time and they're sooo cute😭😭 I also like the art style and costume design a lot!! it gives me like. a nostalgic 90s shoujo anime vibe tbh... w the puffy hair and babyfaces...

why did drix do this? what is he stupid? gay? both?

[cowboy-robooty]

imma be so fr rn i think its homophobic when people are fine with yuri but go up in arms about yaoi. like seriously. because its so fucking stupid to act as though yuri is somehow less fetishistic than yaoi when legit the entire fetish appeal of lesbianism in yuri is the fact that its "so pure and untainted by men". Straight men who consume yuri love it because they have a thing for purity in a similar vein as straight women love yaoi for being guys "sinning" and shit. I think both of these sentiments are foul in their own respective ways and its plain ignorant to act as though the "purity" of yuri is made out of a respect for lesbians instead of fetishistic appeal. And dont get it twisted rn and think im saying yaoi and yuri both suck; you know i love both of these genres, but i can criticize it without saying the genre as a whole is some evil demon shit. Straight erotica also houses a plethora of problematic themes and sentiments because every genre is going to have issues, especially when its lewd content. Lewd content is made TO BE fetishistic because well... its lewd; the problems that arise are not black or white matters and I think that if people are willing to enjoy straight erotic manga critically but unwilling to give the same grace to yaoi or yuri then thats plain homophobic. Because when people act as though yaoi and yuri having these problems means that the genres as a whole are unsalvagable while straight erotica can still be excused, it implies that homosexuals are obligated to be BETTER than heterosexual content to be accepted. It creates this idea that homosexual content is somehow inherently more dirty and needs to make up for this fact by being morally superior in other ways. 50 shades of gray and twilight can exist with a littany of foul tropes and problematic themes that are completely put into a fetishistic light, and yes it recieves mockery and is called cringe (because it is), but how come thats all it gets while some yaoi has the same shit going on and is treated like the entire genre as a whole needs to be exterminated??????? nobody has ever said that all shitty novels made for lonely women need to be demolished because of twilight and 50 shades of gray, and anyone who has gets called out for their misogyny because its fucking stupid to act like an entire genre of content should be killed for some cringe loser shit being mixed in with it. All porn has problematic tropes, and its so homophobic to act like specifically the genre of gay men having sex is the most egregious offender of these tropes while passing off yuri as fine because the problematic tropes it houses feed into the idea of purity.

Like oh my god, the majority of yuri is not made for lesbians. Even though it is made by women, these women are not fucking queer women. They're straight women who are feeding into the misogynistic ideals of pure, feminine women remaining pure and feminine by keeping untainted by men while exploring eachothers bodies. thats why yaoi and yuris problems mirror eachother in that you see an abundance of heteronormativity in yaoi (big semes, small ukes; with the smaller feminine one being lured into a tainted world of sin by being gay or whatever) while yuri has the opposite problem with a lack of body diversity because it focuses on ideal feminine ladies remaining untouched by "sin" by only touching eachother. Why do you think that around the same time yaoi was full of shit like junjou romantica bullshit yuri was also notorious for being boring as hell with two girls thats have no personalities making out together? Because BOTH of these genres had these issues much more severely in the 2000s-2010s. Yaoi was too crazy with that sinning fetish while Yuri was too boring with that purity fetish. Its also so stupid when people keep using examples from that era of yaoi as evidence that western mlm work is sooooo much better and superior compared to the entire fucking genre because its comparing shit from ten years ago to shit made now. Idk if you remember but literally ten years ago pedo bear was a normal thing that was goddamn EVERYWHERE online. Culture changes and i can assure you western gay media was not so squeaky clean during that time either; but this is a whole 'nother enchilada to be devoured another time.

Anyways in short; its homophobic as hell if you embrace yuri but shun yaoi. All you're doing is showing you have a fundamental lack of understanding concerning the roots of yuri and who yuri is actually made for. You're acting like gay men having sex is inherently "dirtier" than straight people having sex and that they need to compensate by being more morally righteous. I'm not saying that the different problematic tropes found in each type of erotica is good and shouldn't be changed, but its homophobic to excuse straight porn while refusing that same grace to yaoi. And it disgusts me seeing people continue to perpetuate the sentiment of gay men being seen as sin and lesbian women being seen as pure (in an almost baby-fying way) only wrapped up in a new convoluted form of packaging while acting like theyre protecting homosexuals.
