Instead of American Psycho it should be Fujoshi Psycho and instead of watching lesbian porn, he watches yaoi and instead of killing ppl, he goes to gay bars and says squee and nosebleeds.

Confessions of a rotten girl (by Sawtowne)

An Hatsune Miku fanart, this one based on the song "Confessions of a Rotten Girl" by Sawtowne.

I really appreciated It tbh, especially for all the references about the early 2000's fandom culture😆

To the people who are trashing fujoshi's by saying that we are making men the center of our universe: FUCK YOU SO FUCKING MUCH!!!!!

Like if you feel uncomfortable with Yaoi in general as long as you are not homophobic that is ok, I'm not going to force it onto you, it isn't everyone's cup of tea and that is ok, you don't tell me how to live and I will not care either, but if you are hating on us and the whole genre because you think that we are making men our whole thing, in most cases you are ignoring and erasing a big part of who we are and why we like it.

I will not speak for fujoshi's as a whole as I'm just one person, who yes happens to be female, but has made a lot of interspersion and talk to people with similar tastes to understand where I and some others come from.

While we do have a lot of good female representation nowadays, may I remind you that this was not always the case, there is a lot of old media that sidetrack women to just a few stereotypical roles and didn't use them as much, many times being reduced to being love interests with not much development, making in many shows the closest relationships between two men.

Most times when shipping we want an emotional connection, and a lot of media with mainly male characters still gives them a lot of close connection that is lacking in most hetero-depicted couples.

Queer representation and media are also something that is just being normalized, Yaoi like it or not helped a lot of women to realize that liking other women is an option, that ''Hey if two men can kiss, why couldn't two women do the same?'' because most sapphic coded characters in the past were fetishized for the male audience, and the fact that most of the fandom is queer is very telling.

A lot of women that like Yaoi are queer. Most of the women who like Yaoi have not been hetero, I'm pansexual, I used to talk to an asexual who liked it too, and a lot of bisexuals, and lesbians, why? because queer relationships/coded have only become more open and unfortunately most relationships between women used to be more of a fetish and directed to men, making it unappealing to most women who like women as they tend to objectify us.

There are a lot of reasons why someone may feel more attracted to Yaoi as a whole, but I hate that even though it is an outlet, hobby, or just interest that doesn't have any real consequence in real life and doesn't harm anyone we are shamed for it, and most of the time tamer than men with a similar taste.

I don't like that I sound so hateful, because honestly? I don't care all that much what men do in their own time as long as it isn't harmful, but it is tiring because the excuse to hate on us is that we have internalized misogyny without viewing the bigger picture or giving us a bit of grace.

And honestly, I think it is more misogynistic to attack women for a mainly female-like genre while men liking a similar thing has been normalized, as it is usual that something mainly liked by women will be attacked even by other women.

I'm sorry for the rant and if it isn't all that coherent, or if I missed a point, English is not my first language, I don't hate men, and I'm just tired of having to defend my likes because of someone else believes.

Also, Yaoi was the first actual time I realized that being hetero was not the only thing I could be, or that it was not wrong to feel for others who weren't men, the community helped me find so much of myself, that no, men weren't the only option and that it was ok, it helped me not to feel so lonely or weird, especially growing up in an already hard and confusing environment.
