Majority of people who write bl are women, and they don’t realise it but they apply gender roles to the ukes and the semes. That’s why in a lot of bl (especially the older ones) ukes act almost feminine and are smaller and ‘innocent’, while seme’s are written to be over masculine. It’s really messed up
…you are completely correct to assume they’re virgins omfg a lot of yaoi is written by Japanese writers and statistically like a quarter of people over 40 there ARE virgins so yeah ur literally right, a lot of this stuff is quite literally just fantasies and really rEALLY innacurate and weird portrayals of relationships
They have one of the lowest birth rates in the world for a reason, no one there is doing it . I feel that the teeny tiny percentage that are aren’t used to seeing healthy depictions of relationships which I guess is why the cheating culture is so bad, it’s probably also m why in a lot of manga the relationships can sometimes just be..really weird.
I hate semes who sleep around!!!!
