Should heterosexual people read/write homosexual pornography?
Respectful responses only, please be kind in the comments.
As a lesbian woman I think heterosexual people shouldn't write homosexual pornography (including yaoi/yuri). I see it as a form of cultural appropriation and disrespectful fetishization of homosexual individuals. I think that homosexuality should definitely be portrayed and consumed by heterosexual people in other forms of media, such as non-sexual comics, television, movies, etc. as long as it's respectful.
However, I recognize that this is an issue that concerns both heterosexual and homosexual individuals so I would love to hear the opinions of other homosexuals and heterosexuals.
p.s When I say homosexuals I also include bisexuals and pansexuals, since I think they can have authentic homosexual experiences. I would also love to hear some opinions from bi/pan folks since they have a unique perspective on the matter.

I personally think that lgbtq people write better stories then straight people when it’s a mlm story or a wlw story. Just because cause they are experience and will clearly have a better understanding of us (same with writing poc characters but;;). But I think it’s straight people REALLY try to get us they can write good stories as......
