I find it quite interesting how common the "spiteful homophobic girl gay couple" trope is in yaoi, especially given that it was mostly women (lesbian and heterosexual) who helped men during the AIDS crisis, and are indeed propping up the BL industry today.
Perhaps it's a case of internalised misogyny? Regardless, it's strange how women primarily produce and consume BL/yaoi/shounen ai/gay fanfic and still portray themselves as the enemies and men as the heroes.
