im a lesbian and this doesmt offend me at all. read whatever u want and its none of their concern(except if u read degenerate stuffs)
Bro it's all cool to read w/e because it boils down to how you treat the leads/how you view people irl. Honestly reading about same sex couples will just gives you a different perspective on relationships and doesn't affect your personal sexuality
If it's just pure gooner brain towards it then yeah you might be leaning towards fetishizing. If you end up liking GL but gag at WLW IRL then I'd personally put you in the fet box.
My hot take is that more guys gotta start reading josei/shojo stuffs to round out how you consume themes. After a while you'll be able to tell if something is written by a person who hasn't talked to the opposite sex for more than 3 minutes. Usually this means you'll be able to clock if a dude wrote something lmao
Read whatever you want. What's important is separating fiction from reality. Be a horny debased freak on the illegal sites, and then go back to your real life and just be a respectful and normal guy.
Do you want to read GL exclusively because of the sex? If the answer is no then you're fine lol I mean at the end of the day is just romance, if it peaks your interest you should read it (it's a very cute and lovely story btw, you'll love it)
Reading GL/BL as someone who's not part of those minorities is only a problem when you start to put your fantasies abt it onto real lesbian/gay couples or speak of them as if they exist for the sake of your own sexual gratification (which some BL female readers do, which gave women this reputation in the anime/manga community). You reading GL bc its cute is not creepy, weird or bad
Im a gay man id read gl as long as its cute
I’m a lesbian. Himedanshis are always welcomed by sapphics in the yuri community, at least, from the spaces I’m in. Keep reading yuri, it’s an underrated genre and needs the attention
I’m a lesbian and I don’t see anything wrong with it.. I think it’s ok even if you were fetishizing it as long as you understand it’s just fiction and don’t apply it to reality that’s when it becomes a real problem.
In the end read whatever you want and if you’re still worried what others think just read it privately :)
If women read bl why cant men read gl. It doesnt matter read what u want yk. I also recommend kill me now its actual peak
(Im pooping rn and I’m locked in so my typing might be bad)
Okay, so this might be a stupid question. But as a male, I genuinely want to know if it’s okay for me to read GL manwhas. I’m asking because of the male controversy that men fetishize lesbian couples. I want to be clear that I usually read BL manwhas, I have never touched any GL one’s. But I’ve recently seen a whole bunch of edits of “The guy she was interested in wasnt a guy at all” (Don’t know if that’s the right name?) And thought they were super cute.
I am also a unlabeled man, but I have more of a male lean. Though that doesn’t mean I don’t also prefer women obviously, so would that still make me weird?
Again this would be my first girl-love story I’ve ever read because of the fear of being called creepy and weird.
— I brought this up to someone and they told me it would almost be equivalent to women fetishizing BL. If that’s true then I promise I won’t touch anything related to GL. if this is like some insensitive topic or I said something weird then I accept all hate in the responses….(´༎ρ༎`)
