**PLEASE READ BEFORE ANSWERING** Hello, asker here! I just wanted to say that when I wrote this I was in a really bad mood. I had just seen an entire thread on how fem gay men in yaoi where gross and basically women. And a lot of people agreed so I wanted to vent a little. ALSO, I didn't know that fujoshi was a general term for all female yaoi r......
Bro, I feel you here (I'm also a hella feminine gay man - like, I-routinely-get-mistaken-for-a-young-girl feminine).

I'm a woman and I'm straight. 1. I agree. Can't relate. I enjoy being a woman. I enjoy being straight. I love dick. 2. I agree. Though I could write you a book on why people talk shit about fem boys.
