This is the first Ive heard of bara being an insulting word. So ill wait for the experts reply as well coz Im ignorant on this topic.

Honestly it was my first time as well but this girl told me it was https://imgbox.com/hddSy7TH When I asked her what’s the correct term to use she never replied...

I heard that it was just like yaoi but like for men because it’s a more like masculine art style but I don’t know for real it just what I read

I've just searched it up and its a jap manga for gay and bisexual men. So i dont know how its insulting in any way. Its just like yaoi but directed to a specific audience. I still dunno tho. Maybe some os insulted by it?

I don't know... yaoi is more preferred by women; bara I don't know, all I know is that the genre has shown that, in the ones about story and love, it's okay to be muscular, gay, and not be dominant; it helps gays that way be more comfortable about the stereotypes of gays being feminine and the like; I didn't think it was a bad thing
