i did not go through years of racism for the color of my skin and my curly hair just to be called white. i hated my skin color as a child and i still hate having curly hair because of racism but when i finally accepted who and where i was from, tons of strangers online called me white? i just don't think its fair at all... ya'll even excluded most Hispanics from being able to call themselves a POC. people learned Hispanic/Latino wasn't a race and ran with it. i know i cant turn Latinx/Hispanic into a race but if someone asks for my 'race' i will not say i'm white. i don't have anything against white people but as a Latina with years of trauma connected to racism and sexism about my ethnicity, i really hate being perceived as american/white because it makes me feel left out and lost since i finally feel connected to my culture. this just makes me so upset, especially with all the equality movements going around

just because a couple isn’t hetero doesn't mean that people who read the story are fetishizing homosexuals. even if a gay or lesbian story includes smut or sex, it isn't 'fetishization' to read it. Fetishizing a sexual orientation is different from watching/reading smut.. if you compare real gay/lesbian people to the term "yaoi"/"yuri" or if someone sexualizes sexual orientation(s) then THAT is fetishization. an opposite gender reading gay erotica or lesbian erotica is no different from anyone reading straight erotica. In a way saying "reading lgbtq smut as a heterosexual is fetishization" really sounds somewhat like you're comparing and neglecting lgbtq+ representation. same with gay or lesbian porn, do you feel the same way if [lesbian] non-binary person gets turned on by "yaoi"? or if a [gay] non-binary person gets turned on by "yuri"? ..porn is porn. no one's "sexualizing" anyones sexual orientation, (some) people can get turned on by whatever. i can see how you find an opposite gender/sex reading LGBTQ smut uncomfortable but don't speak up for the whole community because in a way, it is LGBTQ representation. if a person ACTUALLY fetishizes and makes "yaoi" their whole personality then of course, that's not wanted representation and we as a community can all [insult/] educate them.

personal opinion: the manhwa "sadistic beauty" is so toxic but people look over the toxic parts because they like the femdom + BDSM sex scenes. the MC sucks. she raped one of the love interests because they were vulnerable and in an unstable condition, MC practically forced her lesbian friend to have sex with a man... i didnt even finish it but i know there's even more that i'd hate about it. one of the whole points of BDSM is CONSENT. yall suddenly just excused the part of her raping someone because she's a woman and because 'it's hot'...
-- most popular eroticas are toxic.

mine are gender benders. specifically the ones where the MC is disguised/transformed into the opposite gender and the love interest is also the opposite gender. i hate those so much because in the end it's just a straight romance that's queer baiting.
