However, some BL-like MDZS-actually have good plots, nuanced characters, moving stories, etc.
This concept really irks me because queer relationships (especially gay ones) are not meant to be fetishized by women and/or cishet people in media.
It's generally written by straight women, meant to be consumed by straight women, and followed by straight women. I'm not a scholar or an edukatid person on these topics I'm just purely speaking from observation and emotion.Īs many of us know, the genre of boy's love (BL) is marketed towards women. This will likely just be a compilation of my incoherent thoughts about this matter, so my apologies in advance. CW: spoilers, mentions of r*pe, p*dophilia, non-consensual sex.
