Guys what is yall's opinion on the term fujoshi/people being fujoshis, bc i used to be a hater for the sole reason that it has a derogatory history, but other than that i couldnt rlly care less... and idrm anymore... but ive seen people say its fetishizing gay men... imo that is stupid.. but id like to know yalls opinions on this, bc maybe i just need to see it from someones POV

Gay¹ man² here, fujoshi’s are okay. Fetishizing gay men is different from reading about gay men. Fetishizing gay men is shit like porn, etc. Obviously, lesbians and sapphics are more subject to explicit fetishization of their identity, but I can’t speak on that

¹ Eh…? I just use the achillean label, I’m not sure.
² Not a man, but vaguely man-shaped. [Reference]
