Let’s begin, shall we? Top Five Worst Yaois You Should Avoid: I’ve never watched a real yuri, so this is gonna be a little hard. All of them are mlm, since I am an mlm non-binary transman, but in the future, I’ll probably have a top five best and worst yuris list.
Here’s my list that goes from worst to best. However, that doesn’t mean that good lgbt+ anime doesn’t exist. Yaoi is not only homophobic for fetishizing gay men, but also portrays some really predatory and woobify tropes. (I said horny instead of straight because some identify as bi). Yaoi, BL, Boys’ Love, Shounen Ai, however you might call it, is a form of Japanese mlm media for horny women, as known as fujoshis. Just because it has gay in it, doesn’t mean it’ll be good representation. An example would be Call Me By Your Name and Blue Is The Warmest Colour. It’s pride month, and we should be aware of what is really for us and what is really for an audience who visualize us as a hypersexual fantasy.
