a lot of manga men would read gets adapted, but a lot of manga remains unadapted and a lot of it is for women (ex: shoujo/josei, much of the yuri/yaoi genre)

this is also goodreads, so i expect a moderate western bias and tgirls are probably a non-insignificant amount of this readership

it would be funny if instead of a special cutscene for succeeding in an unwinnable cutscene, you get one for losing where they call you a weakass

to be more clear, im asking in the "fictional lesbians are material for neckbeads' male gaze" i hear all over the place including the original comment which seems legitimately unsubstantiated. himejoshi/danshi as terms i am familiar with (my name is a pun on this actually)

im not sure what sapphic relationships men like reading about or watching. i know they watch lesbian porn for men but im not sure that extends to yuri manga. i keep hearing about this but dont really see it much in the wild even on plebbit.

yeah, danshi here means boy. himedanshi is princess boy, probably taken from yurihime the largest yuri serialization.

its not the purpose of this post but the yuri image drawn for wikipedia is really cute
