Yaoi

Do you think yaoi (NOT bl/shounen ai) sexualizes and glamorizes gay relationships? I’m genuinely curious because some story’s are so so unrealistic. And some are just straight sex the entire manga. With no plot. (I understand it is strictly fiction.) I would like to hear opinions because, to be honest, I’ve gotten to a point where I’m just confused about what im reading. And I’m feeling mixed feelings about reading those story’s anymore. (Maybe the word I’m looking for is uncomfortable??) but anyways your opinion is very appreciated on this taboo subject. I know it’s a lot haha.

I think some yaoi fetishizes gay relationships the ones without any plots just smut all the time and where the characters are very stereotypically feminine or musculine. I don't like those ones. Even though most of the yaoi kinda is like that but there are also a lot of good ones. The ones I have read are either the uncomfortable ones or really goo...... 1 reply
