fabjoylove replied to your post:are we really not allowed to use ‘broTP’ anymore?...
WHAT??? did someone really say you couldn’t use ‘broTP? you know I think screw ‘them’ what could possibly be offensive about true friends? Like Stiles/Scott or Stiles/Lydia or Allison/Lydia? Not everything in fandom has to be sexual.
Yeah, apparently some people think it's homophobic, like the term 'bromance'. It's been all over my dash today. And I don't even get how it can be homophobic when most of the time I use it for m/f friendships??? And I call everyone bro, regardless of gender. It's one of those words that has lost gendered connotations in my mind, like dude and 'hey guys'. But, whatever. Apparently it's offensive to some people and that's enough to make it a no-no now.
