and hating gl bc gl like Citrus got popular is also very narrow minded, homophobic and misogyonistic.

I don't know if the term Himejoshi exists in the same conext as Fujoshi but I know that just like in bl, not every manga is like that.

Saying that every fujoshi is a 'misogyonist that fetishizes gay men' is not only very narrow-minded of the genre, but in itself is VERY misogyonistic.

The term "Fujoshi" in its conext came about when women read a lot of bl in Japan and men called them 'unfit for marrige' for that reason.

All of these forms of bigotry are not a characteristic. They are SYSTEMATIC issues that everyone is born and raised into. You don't pop out of the womb woke. It is your JOB to LEARN and understand these things and if you refuse to, then I do not have sympathy for you

I do have empathy for ppl who just don't know about any of this bc at one point I didn't know about it to. I used to hate ships like BakuDeku or AppleDash bc it was ppl of the same gender who didn't get along in their entire relationship (I even started fights and ship wars due to that).

Ik I'm over emphasizing the MHA fandom way too much but these aspects of the fandom are in almost every modern shonen anime fandom and when you ship men and women together in those fandoms, ppl have the same talking points.

06.08.2025 23:04 โ€” ๐Ÿ‘ 1    ๐Ÿ” 0    ๐Ÿ’ฌ 1    ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

Then you guys like anime like A Silent Voice where a female character has a crush on someone who used to be her bully and completely over look those aspects bc it's a romance between a man and a woman.

06.08.2025 23:04 โ€” ๐Ÿ‘ 1    ๐Ÿ” 0    ๐Ÿ’ฌ 1    ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

but you don't put that same context into ppl who ship any male character with MHA with a woman even though it's not canon and when it's even between a minor and an adult and even when Horokoshi HIMSELF sexualizes minor girls in MHA and makes SA and pedophellic jokes about them.

You guys seethe and boil over BakuDeku and TogaChako shippers bc ppl are 'sexualizing underage characters' and the ship is 'problematic' bc Bakugo used to be a bully and Toga killed ppl.

-high school but when a straight anime has those things (and even heavily sexualizes teenage girls specifically), it gets overlooked.

Why is it that you don't like queer ships in shonen but you will ship the MC or any male character with the first female he even talks to?

Actually since we are here, why is it that ppl over emphasize the problems with bl and gl to hate on those groups for things like shipping characters but it is very over looked when it is a straight romance.

You guys HATED Twilight out of Focus bc it had sex scenes between men in-

It's just like how not every anime is 'a fetishtization of cartoons and children made for ppl living in their mothers basement.' Some animanga have harmful tropes and it's not bad to highlight that, but saying that is all anime is very narrow minded and bigoted.

Also I would like to highlight that I don't support generalization of fandoms in ANY capacity. This thread is on why I think the yuri vs yaoi discourse is very stupid and shortsighted at best and unproductive at worse.

Using that to hate on EVERY fujoshi and EVERY himejoshi is not right.

I like JayVik too and I don't hate Mel at the slightest. She is one of the few west African represenation in a popular franchise and I love her character.

I like CaitVi but I hate the fact that ppl hate on black ppl (especially black lesbians) who don't like their writing.

Yeah and I really REALLY hate that tbh. I'm making a whole thread on topics like that right now so I'll tag you when I'm finished. I just want to emphazie the fighting between Yaoi and Yuri spaces and highlight the problems in both spaces with the context of the Arcane fandom.

hard for me to tackle topics like these especially when it comes to fandoms. I do not want to spread any harm or misinformation here so if I say anything wrong here, please let me know.

and harshly judge each other for enjoying queer stories when this keeps happening!!!
Idk it all just seems so weird to me. Iโ€™m sorry if I said anything wrong. Despite me being chronically online for basically my entire life, I still donโ€™t know anything sometimes and itโ€™s-

when Dudebros are still making fun of us for shipping characters in shonen anime. Homophobes are still in the comments/reviews of queer shows to attack it to no end. Both BL and GL authors are being mistreated by publishers.

We cannot just keep turning a blind eye to our faults-

06.08.2025 20:02 โ€” ๐Ÿ‘ 1    ๐Ÿ” 0    ๐Ÿ’ฌ 1    ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

shippers will go and harass those ppl and attack them at every angle.

The worse part about this discourse is that this is we really donโ€™t have time for this???? The world is unveiling its bigotry towards everyone and that includes queer ppl. We are fighting amongst ourselves-

them bc they โ€˜get in the way of their shipโ€™ and bc this is also a black woman, we have to add in the good olโ€™ antiblackness to the picture.

When black ppl point out how harmful CaitVi's writing was in S2 and how it didnโ€™t handle their relationship well, CaitVi-

I feel like a perfect example of this is Arcane fandom. Both CatViโ€™s and JayVikโ€™s spaces are extremely toxic. JayVikโ€™s will be so disgustingly racist and misogynistic towards Mel (as well as other black female characters) to the point where they would write the most disgusting fanfic involving-
