Go read an actual yaoi work and see why everyone hates the fujos

Fujoshi is not a name. It is a derogatory word to describe women who are exactly like the brain rotted incels.
All they think about is sex, sex, and sex.

Every yaoi I've seen holds a very callous perspective towards relationships. It is toxic, manipulative, and is advertised as ideal amongst the fujos.

Even normies know about Umibe no Étranger, Summer Hikaru Died, and Killing Stalking. I don’t think the same can be said for any yuri, so if we’re judging purely based on recognition and popularity, well…

Why do (You) think yaoi is more popular?

I agree yaoi sucks, but yuri also sucks. It's both about pedophilia, moral nihilism and gender bending. Fetishizing homosexuality as a solution to dysfunctional heterosexuality is arguably homophobic.

I do. That's why I don't like yuri and yaoi. It's straight people and straight authors mocking homosexuality and misrepresenting it as a hotbed for pedophilia, rape, and sexual objectification. Gay people and lesbians aren't straight people's entertainment to mock and belittle. It would be like if a lesbian purposely wrote stories about pedophilic, abusive heterosexual relationships to try to ward women against it. It would be offensive, right? So how do the depraved faggots of the internet who watch too much anime who claim to be gay/queer/whatever act so permissive towards anime? It's because they're straight people who mistake themselves as gay because of anime. It's not autism. It's deliberate corporate brainwashing to stupify the youth and the poor who can afford nothing but to consume passive entertainment in their spare time. But then again that's 99% of anime.

This might be true of yaoi, but a lot of yuri manga are written by women and pretty standard romances.

Real lesbians don't exist. All women are by nature bisexual. Some of these "lesbian" japanese women also write yuri.
I don't know about homosexual men. I think with some of them being abused is the reason for that but some of them are also involved with yaoi.

Because yaoi and fujo stuff is accepted by normalfag women, its literally popular culture for women to be depicted with a gay man as a friend
It's barely accepted for men to like moe, let alone yuri without someone spazzing out, and lesbians get lumped into fag hate among men

Right is a way better list, but the thing is, it's not really representative of the usual yaoi slop. If you check out other manga thinking that's what yaoi is like, you'll be terribly disappointed. Hell, even the chinkshit/gookshit is leagues above the usual gookshit/chinkshit, it's some of the best output they've ever managed.
Left has less masterpieces, but on the other hand you can expect more of the same if you pick up a random yuri manga. You won't be disappointed.

Yuri have completely dominated the otaku market nowadays. It's completely unrecognizable from 20 years ago where people are latching onto Sailor Moon because nothing else exists

Fujo has their own designated place where otakus do not go
They have their own street in Akihabara

Try Heart of Thomas, it's from the era of melodramatic shoujo set in boy's boarding schools, but has less bullying/abuse than the other classic shoujo named on the list. Patalliro on there is a comedy with a recurring scenario that a very beautiful British secret agent always beds pretty trap spies told using lots of rose petal euphemisms ("bara" or rose used to be the Japanese equivalent of calling someone a fag) - however it's a gag series and the MC is a fat little boy from a made up third world country who is always an annoying shit to everyone, so enjoyment depends on your sense of humour. Heaven's Official Blessing is one of the most popular Chinese novels in the west because kids figured out it doesn't have sex scenes in it, just gore, tragedy, and drama, and some genderbending side characters who look like a lesbian couple. If you liked the part in Howl's Moving Castle where Howl takes Sophie's hand and walks her through the air, the first meeting of its main couple has a similar dokidoki feeling, just that the protagonist is dressed as a bride and is being escorted by a ghost through a forest raining blood from decorative corpses. How romantic. Little Mushroom and No. 6 are both science fiction set in a far future, and No. 6 is especially dystopian in themes - expect far more plot than romance. The Summer Hikaru Died is a horror mystery where the MC's love interest is already dead and replaced by something in his body, so that's more exploring the abject whenever it deals with potentially romantic/kinky scenes. Tokyo Babylon is classic CLAMP action. Rose King is a historical drama with an intersex Richard the third as the protag, avoid the anime and you're good. Mo Dao Zu Shi is a reincarnation cultivation murder mystery with politics between martial arts sects, where everyone has long hair and some anons argue look like women, but be warned the novel ver has full on porn scenes with rough sex/rape kink and putting a sword hilt up the ass.

Its not a issue of guys not being as much into rape and more that the appeal of the lesbian fantasy isn't compatible with having random dudes who aren't you in it.
I'm not watching lesbian porn for more man asses, then its just regular rape porn.
The fact its not popular is easily visible in JAV though. There is metric truckloads of lesbian and rape JAV, but only a miniscule amount of lesbians being raped (by men) JAVs.

>yuri vs yaoi
honestly is this even a question? It´s not my cup of tea but yaoi has some great drama.
From a writing perspective it´s yaoi>het>>>>>>yuri.
I don´t know why though. Maybe it´s the tension. Maybe yaoi actually goes into the darker aspects, of societal expectations and characters and their faults.

Honestly the more i think about it greater the cliff between yuri and yaoi quality becomes. Imagine someone confessing their love in a yaoi story. The difference of what could happen in the worst case and the best case makes for great drama.

Nta, but BL tends to be darker in that aspect. Picrel is about a guy just finding out his addict friend died a while back in prison. Most of the story is from the addict's perspective and his descent into drugs and homelessness because he doesn't subscribe to societal expectations. The addict isn't a saint by any means, but you do feel for him knowing he dies at the end.

I can never find something this dark in yuri.

Is it I Love your Cruddy? I've read that one. Kinks devolving into a lover's suicide is not an easy topic either, though I felt that Cruddy softened the blow a lot with its artstyle imo. For instance, the puke scenes didn't make me feel much, as it looked like a drink got spilled on the girl. The darker BL I've read tends to not soften it as often.
Also, perhaps out of sheer lack of quantity, the variety of darker yuri is limited. Though the puppet(?) fetish yuri I've been hearing lately, along with the monster girl yuri anime that's gonna come out, makes me hopeful that more darker settings will be explored in the future.

Nta but while I think both genres have their merits when it comes to dark tragedy, I think yuri can be a bit more "sweet" while yaoi can be bit more "bitter".
It's hard to say which hits harder as "tragedy" though. Just because something is bitter doesn't make it mature. you can just be eating bark.
I'd say it would depend on somebody's mood.

I mean, I do agree each have their own merits. But the maturity aspect was never a point of contention.
I am simply stating how, as the other anon said, BL goes into even darker aspects of societal expectations with its characters and their faults. Whether it's more mature or not isn't the point, it's just that it's an interesting topic to explore that allows for some great drama. Meanwhile, the darker aspects aren't as thoroughly explored in yuri, and its variety is limited. This might change in the future, but as it stands, those sorts of darker topics are limited.

So i am i, but yuri has been normalized so much now (The Last of Us, Batman, Hazbin Hotel, Life is Strange, Tomb Raider, The Walking Dead, Higurashi, Owl House, She-Ra, Avatar the Last Airbender, Madoka Magica, Lyrical Nanoha) that it's no longer a interesting topic unless the society is heavily sexist against women in the story. Whereas BL is a inherently taboo and immoral subject which makes the idea of a plot around it much more interesting and prone to darker subject matter

I asked a AI to decide this based on artistic merit and impact alone and they said this

1. The Heart of Thomas (Yaoi) - Moto Hagio’s masterpiece features exquisite art and was pivotal in establishing Yaoi, influencing countless works.
2. Revolutionary Girl Utena (Yuri) - Known for its symbolic, avant-garde art and groundbreaking narrative style, a major influence on Yuri and anime.
3. Kaze to Ki No Uta (Yaoi) - Another Hagio work with stunning historical art, significantly shaping Yaoi’s emotional and aesthetic foundations.
4. Onisama e... (Yuri) - Pioneering shōjo art with dramatic visuals, influential in early Yuri development.
5. Tokyo Babylon (Yaoi) - CLAMP’s distinctive art style and supernatural themes left a lasting mark on Yaoi and manga.
6. Yokohama Kaidashi Kikou (Yuri) - Hitoshi Ashinano’s minimalist, serene art style influenced slow-paced storytelling in manga.
7. Bloom Into You (Yuri) - Modern art with a fresh, realistic style, impacting contemporary Yuri aesthetics.
8. Mo Dao Zu Shi (Yaoi) - Rich, culturally inspired art and its donghua adaptation boosted Yaoi’s global influence.
9. No. 6 (Yaoi) - Distinct dystopian art style contributed to Yaoi’s visual diversity.
10. Requiem of the Rose King (Yaoi) - Unique Shakespearean-inspired art added historical depth to Yaoi visuals.

>10. Requiem of the Rose King (Yaoi) - Unique Shakespearean-inspired art added historical depth to Yaoi visuals.
Highly disagree with this on the list. the AI has no idea what the fuck it's been fed.

baraou is more lgbt themed due to the fact that richard is intersex and masculine presenting. It's a far cry from BL but likely to be a hit with they/them faggots on twitter.
It's a very good series but i wouldn't put it anywhere on a list for someone interested in bl.

Richard explicitly identifies as a man, therefore under 4chan rules he would be a man

did you even read the series? it's discussed if he can even get pregnant. I don't disagree he's a man but it's more in the lgbt category not strictly BL

Nothing
Many already tried it, but yurifags act just like ordinary otakus.
Otakus have many bad behaviors, but yurifags have never done anything that makes them stand out

Does being obnoxious shits infesting any show featuring more than one female character not count? Same modus operandi as fujoshis.

Call yurifags delusional. Fujos are in an entirely different level

In fact, one can argue that the common otaku is often always a yurifag too

My point is 80% of fujo ships absolutely do not exist.
Eren x Levi, Yugi x Kaiba, Deku x Bakugo, Shiji x Kaoru, etc
Absolutely none of these exist in canon, but fujos have no sense of reality.

The levels of delusion between the fujo and the yurifag is just incomparable. And the worst part is that fujos don't think that there's anything wrong with themm

Isn't it more that they do have a sense of reality, but simply don't care if it doesn't line up with what they like/prefer?
