Random gay anime guys
After all, although I might be a straight woman who has read BL it doesn’t really matter to me as long as the story is good and I hope that it’s okay to be this way ( I’m open to criticism if you are a gay or lesbian person and find it bad of me to ever read/watch GL/BL).Īnyways, as an example using myself let’s look at the hit romance movie “Call me by your name”, which features two men in love. However, I watched the anime “Barakamon”, which featured a character named Tamako Arai…and she was a fujoshi, so naturally I was like “Wtf this is what a fujoshi is?” and then I read the manga “kiss him, not me” and decided to look up what a fujoshi was, and I felt pretty badly calling myself one from then on because I personally found it a tad bit creepy because the idea of being interested in something or someone simply because of their sexual orientation was disturbing to me. I, for one used to think I was a fujoshis back in middle school because I used to read/watch BL and GL stuff (I still do) sometimes ( As you can see I had no idea wtf a fujoshis was and thought it just meant that you were fine reading love stories with characters that are not straight…). In summary, to be a fujoshi you have to be someone who is attracted to the idea of two men together for your own pleasure (while not being a gay man)…I’m sure you can see why this would distress the gay community.
Reading/watch yaoi/BL just because it’s a gay love story.Shipping random guys together on the street.
Befriending people because they are gay.YouTube video on what a fujoshi is! Common Fujoshi Behavior ( if these apply to you, you might be one) Over the years, the controversy that came out against those diehard BL fans is that they are fetishising the gay community and fujoshi even means “Rotten woman”.īut first we must ask the question, what the heck makes these people specifically fujoshis? If you enjoyed BL/yaoi before or ship two characters together…are you one? A lot of people like romance animes, but some people like yaoi specifically.
