Ship Male Friends Together

yaoi itself was literally porn created by straight women for straight women. whether its fictional or not, yes yaoi and bl have its bad aspects. is it fetishizing gay people if you simply read it, no. but what is fetishizing is when people start comparing these characters to REAL gay men, go out and objectify them, and start actually obsessing over......   2 reply
