yea no stop doing this pls
ok i'm going to be straight forward with this and ik a lot of people are probably not going to like me after this but yall really need to hear this.
there have been TONS of post about how "women who read bl are automatically fetishizers"
yall do know what it means to fetishize right? fetishization of mlm and wlw is when someone thinks that homosexuality is OK in fiction but still shames gay people IRL.
and half the people on here don't do that so stop using fetishizer as a buzzword.
You can't go around calling someone like that just because you don't like the content that they either create or like.
also just because someone define as hetrosexual doesn't mean that they can't enjoy mlm or wlw content. sexuality has always been fluid.
but if they only think of it good as fiction and are hateful towards those type of people irl then that's when you can consider them fetishizers.
so stop throwing around that word thinking that you are doing something.
i am in no way, shape, or form trying to defend fetshization. I am saying to stop accusing those who read bl or are just here to enjoy the mlm or wlw content that they are automatically fetishizers . because a lot of those people have no malicious intent behind it.
so don't my words twisted and start to accuse me of doing so.
I thought fetishises was someone who treats (in this specific case) gay men as mere objects for sexual fantasies instead as actual people. I agree that being a hetero woman who enjoys BL doesn't inherently make one a fetishizer. Just don't project yaoi standards onto real life gay men, as in don't harass them, and just don't sexualize them! Then yo......
