I'm gonna go off on a tangent here, but just to let others know. I just learned that "fujoshi" is a bad term. I didn't know they used that as a derogatory word meaning girls who fetishize gay men. And I changed my username bc of that, I thought it meant a girl who likes BL. So guys, please don't refer to yourself as fujoshi, it's not used as a good word. And I don't really get shipping real men, especially if they aren't gay. That's why I don't read fanfic. Lastly, I think some people, like you said, just can't differentiate fiction from reality.

Hello, sorry that I'm late, but Fujoshi is not a bad term, some people use it as a slur.
Fujoshi means female fan of BL.
2 tumblr users who were known for being TERFs, released the idea that Fujoshi means the fetishising of gay relationships, this is a TERF agenda and transphobic idea. Also, early gamers used, Fujoshi as a mysoginistic slur against women who were shipping male anime or video game characters together. It was used against Doujinshi readers as a slur, 'They are unmarriageable and rotten', and not against BL readers.
Don't the two ideas that,
"Men don't know anything about the hardships of women's daily lives and the biology of women"
(A TERF agenda against trans women)
And,
"Women don't know the hardships of gay mens lives and the everyday homophobia we face and the reality of our lives"
(An argument often used by gay men against Fujoshis)
Sound somewhat the same? Because they are both transphobic. Many women who read BL actually find out that they're lesbian/trans. Yaoi is and has always been a safe way for women to express their sexuality.
Again, Fujoshi is not a bad word, some westerners are just appropriating a language to use it as a slur, that's all.
It has come to my notice that alot of the people on this website only support the G in LGBTQ+ this is because yall sexualize them and that's why yall sympathize with them.
GAY MEN DO NOT NEED YOUR ATTENTION AND YOUR SYMPATHY.
DO NOT SEXUALIZE GAY MEN IN REAL LIFE.
LEARN HOW TO DIFFERENTIATE BETWEEN FICTION N REAL LIFE.
SUPPORT NOT ONLY GAY, BUT THE WHOLE COMMUNITY.
How do you support? Do not make or tolerate homophobic and transphobic comments. Respect the LGBT community and support rallies, donate whenever you can. Contact helpline numbers if you know of any incidents where a sexual minority is being harmed.
IF I HAVE GONE WRONG SOMEWHERE IN THIS COMMENT PLZ TELL ME SO THAT I CAN LEARN MORE.
