Danmei and BL/GL fan whose journey started with Western M/M romance but got severely sidetracked after discovering MDZS/The Untamed
Yes, and that's the point, the way it completely erases everyone who doesn't fit into the notion that "only straight cis women read and write MM romance" (or any romance). Perpetuating the stigma, telling potential readers that "this is not for you".

Brilliant, you adressed everything that infuriated me about that article, and much more eloquently than I ever could have.

I love this thread! You articulated so much that I've been struggling to put into words when listening to people who are obviously totally unfamiliar with the genre (or with subtle storytelling).

Thank you for updating here again! I really want to leave twitter ;_;

I'm actually on Discord a lot more than I'm on Facebook so no problem for me!

I *am* bothered by chewing sounds and I agree that making it so intense was a weird choice 😭

Huh, none of the big platforms or YouTube? TT_TT

BTW, @blupdate2020.bsky.social how did you import all your old tweets from twitter? I'm looking for options to do that, it would be great with a rec though! TY!

It's on either WeTV or Gaga depending on your region, I think!

I joined and then I looked for you and @blupdate2020.bsky.social and you were here! So that's the important accounts settled.
