A lot of them weird me out ngl. Excusing fucked up tropes that are being normalized in this community just because "its yaoi logic", or looking at gay men as gay men rather than individual people. There are way more reasons but they rub me the wrong way. That being said, you can read yaoi and not be a fujo, straight women can read it but its when ......   2 reply

The hate given to the community as a whole deeply hurts me. The negativity towards fujoshis involve an unfortunate stereotype. Like almost all stereotypes, their will be individuals that fit into it. I don't see my love my BL as fetishization. I relate to it more that with just a man and a women, but at the end of the day what it means for somethin......   reply

not at all. don't worry about it, every one has a different opinion on what makes a 'good' relationship, but it really depends on communicating with your partner about your boundaries! everyone loves differently, so don't stress about it   reply

Hello! I’m a gay male who reads BL/yaoi anyways I can see why there is discrimination towards the fujo community but there shouldn’t be any discrimination towards us!

I agree with the definition of the term itself. Which just means someone who enjoys BL. I do love it reading BL but idk I feel like so many fujoshis fetishize gay men. And some people say “well it’s not all of use just some” but I feel like it’s a least half of y’all. You need to call out the toxic people in your group, instead you just a......   reply

As a lesbian with many gay friends I strongly dislike most fujoshis. Yaoi is often very fetishizing and tends to romanticize abuse, toxic relationships, ectera. It's just gross to see queer men like,, existing in general and the comments just filled with (usually straight) girls bragging about how much they get off to them. Like they treat gay rela......   reply

Back in 2015, when I started reading BLs, fujoshi was not seen as a bad word. Nowadays people conflate it with fetishizing gay men, because of 'fujoshis' being predatory towards real men(plus the portrayal of fujoshis in anime like Kiss Him Not Me). So I would opt to not use the word if you don't do that bc it conflates you with the negative stereo......   1 reply
