Why does everyone hate fujoshis/fudanshis so much?
(Ps: I don't know if this happens everywhere but these past few months a lot of people from my country suddenly decided to hate on every single thing that has to do with yaoi) I'm not saying there aren't problematic people in the community, but why does everyone have to keep attacking fujoshis so much? Recently I've been seeing tons and tons of accounts to hate on yaoi and those who like yaoi. Some people from my country even criated an anti-fujoshi flag and keep attacking random people who enjoy yaoi and telling them to kill themselves on twitter and other social medias. This shit has gone to an extent where being called a "fujoshi" is now some kind of insult. I understand that some fujoshis/fudanshis romantize rape, pedophilia and fetichize on real gay couples but seriously? Why generalize it so much? Why do people have to go as far as telling others to kill themselves just because of a messed up sense of justice? There's an specific account (which is really popular where I live btw) that started disseminating the idea that *all* fujoshis hate lesbians/trans people, support pedophilia and enjoy sexual harassement and rape. They stuff as if we're some kind of LGBTQ+ hating cult. And worst of all, everyone just fucking believes that shit without questioning and keep disseminating that negative idea, and I'm sick and tired of that. This account says stuff like "all fujoshis should die" or "have you beat up a fujoshi today?", then whenever they get called out for saying mean/offensive stuff or for lying about some yaoi mangas [Exemple: they said that in Love is An Illusion Hyesung rapes Byul to make people hate on a fujoshi who said she loved their father-son relationship], they just respond with "GuYS wE NeVEr TOld YoU TO HatE On FujOShiS" or "EVerYthINg wE PosT iS 100% TrUE, We ALwaYs LoOK iT Up To MaKE SuRE NOthiNG fAkE geTS DissEMInatEd". I HATE THAT SM UGHHHHH (╯°Д °)╯╧╧ At least this account calls out to toxic fujoshis and try to make them understand why certain things are wrong (such as rape romantization and all the other bad stuff I previously mentioned), and that's the only thing I find good about this account. Everything else they do makes me super mad.
K, I think I could finally let my anger out. Sorry for writing so much, it's just that this shit's been getting on my nerves recently (=・ω・=)
Here I'll explain.
It's because first of all the name fujoshi/fudanshi means "rotten girl/boy", making being gay seem like a taboo.
Second of all it makes liking gay sex as a straight person into a personality trait, therefore making it seem like gay people are kind of fictional and drowning out gay voices with straight ones. (Makes straight peop...... 3 reply
personally don't call myself a fujo because most fujoshis are known for invading personal space, shipping gay men, romanticizing rape, and being toxic asf, and i don't really like identifying myself with a label which is associated with that kind of bs, and don't want to make my personality "mlm fetishizer" or just "bl reader" yk?
but it's the peo...... reply
Smh not this "not all fujos" bullshit again.
If you're incapable of figuring out on your own that if you're not contributing to the problems then people aren't fucking talking about you, that's on no one but yourself. No one needs to spell this shit out for you every time they're calling something out, y'all need to put in some more effort into us...... reply
okay I am asking just bc I am curious (no hate) why is calling yourself a fujoshi is bad? isn't it the same thing as calling yourself a weeb?? but the yaoi version? I really don't get why it's a bad thing 2 reply
All of the assumptions I am reading here about Fujoshi/Fudanshi are all incorrect!
There is no fantasizing, there is no over imagining and thirsty girls who ship straight men.
THIS IS NOT THE ORIGIN OF THE WORD FUJOSHI/FUDANSHI. This is just the fans assuming things because of what they see in Manga and Anime, which btw is Japans "point of view"...... 2 reply
I came across two people who hate fujoshis and they both said the same thing. That the term "fujoshi" meant 'rotten girl' and that they all fetishize gay people. And also that there's a difference between people who like yaoi, and fujoshis. or idk.
But those people are just straight up harassing fujoshis wtf 1 reply
Because we have too many tumblrtards here who are wired to act with mob mentality. They will hate anything and try to justify it in the process. The other side of the coin are the straight male anime/manga elitists, which are most common on other manga/anime sites. They categorise everything, even completely censored works, as 'gay shit' while ver...... reply
Fujoshi basically means disgusting woman (It's always been an insult). They don't like us because we read gay porn, and romanticize gay relationships.
That's basically it, if I wasn't one I would find them pretty gross. I even cringe when people say they like yaoi , manga, anime, or even kpop in irl, even though I like it and am probably an bigge...... reply
Also, thank you all for the comments. it's really nice debating about this topic with other people. Please keep showing your points of view so that we can all talk and maybe learn something with each other (づ ̄ ³ ̄)づ reply
