genuinely curious abt what bigoted themes yuri have, cuz i know u dont mind age gap or incest n that type of content i know the racism but aside from i cant think of other
this a friendly question, i dont want to question u or smt btw
also its the first ive seen someone say that so what u consider heteronormative in yuri ?? sowwy to yap this much lmao
Bigotry as in racism and transmisogyny. About heteronormativity in yuri, as I said it depends on the author's intent + I don't see how yuri could be totally immune from heteronormativity if yaoi can be heteronormative? I think anything people consider heteronormative in yaoi can be heteronormative in yuri too and it's hypocritical to say otherwise. Like I think the whole "it's two girls so it can't be" is a stupid argument because two men isn't inherently heteronormative but the content is what makes it heteronormative or not. This is an example from an f/f fic on ao3, not from yuri manga but I think fic counts for arguments like this-- it was the most disgusting thing I've ever seen (I didn't read it lol I clicked off after being jumpscared by all the bullshit in it) I'm so serious it demonized butches and it was misogynistic among a billion other things omfg but anyway it was about a butch abusing their femme and the fic opened up with the butch being with a group of friends talking about women the way men talk about women like straight up disgusting misogyny it made me nauseous. So that's what I mean when I say f/f content can also be heteronormative.
