why does this happen?
>>
women are more likely to shamelessly buy weird degenerate crap
>>
fujos are actually willing to pay, unlike yurifags
>>
>>289684282
Women are the most powerful race in the world. Fact.
>>
>>289684282
Fujos actually spend money on the things they like instead of trying to take over 4chan's anime board with constant dogshit posts and generals
>>
yaoi is shrimply way more popular
>>
>>289684282
women proving they're the superior gender yet again
>>
>>289684282
Men watch porn while women read it. That's why lesbian porn is far more common than gay porn.
>>
>>289684480
funny how I barely ever see yaoi threads but yuri threads are everywhere
>>
Eastern fujos learned a long time ago that you catch more flies with honey than with vinegar.
They also don't interact with their western counterparts as much since western fujos tend to be batshit insane even by fujos standards.
Yurifags in comparison tend to be very angry, annoying, and vocal, and the difference between western yurifags and eastern yurifags is much smaller than the difference between western and eastern fujos.
Basically, it all depends on a group's proximity to culture war retardation, the closer you are, the less popular you'll be among actual normal audiences who actually pay for shit.
>>
>>289684282
Real women love yaoi
Fake women love yuri
There are more real women than fake women, do the math
>>
>>289684637
fujos are far more well-behaved and keep to themselves (homos can be pretty annoying though)
even in Japan other otaku hate yurifags
>>
>>289684282
think about it, the genre of "yuri/yaoi" is about sexuality, in other words, romance. And romance is typically read by women.
If guys want the kind of yuri they want to read, it would be hentai and thus not part of that bookshelf(even if some feature adult scenes).
>>
>>289684575
Then why do they buy works with men in them?
Checkmate, radfem
>>
>>289684637
I hate to use this as an example, but it's kind of like how in bi-gender gacha games you'll see people talking about how [male character] gets tons of likes and views on social media, but makes absolute dick for money compared to [female character].
This makes sense when you realize that a lot of the people posting about shit online are poor third worlders with no money, especially a lot of the women online these days, they tend to gravitate to social media since it's basically free and lets them I retract with groups well outside their typical sphere of influence.
>>
Women spend, men save.
>>
>>289684673
Didn't the fujos just recently harass another author off social media? They both suck.
>>
>>289684763
I thought the exact same.
>>
>>289684282
Men hate women and women also hate women. So who would read a work with only women in it?
>>
>>289684282
When a woman buys a manga about boys having gay sex it's just normal, if a man buys a manga about ANYTHING people judge and decide to make it that man's identity. You buy shonen manga? You're a shonenfag, a woman buys the same manga? She just has an interest, whatever. It's social cliche, about judgement being so biased for seemingly no reason, until you actually pay attention and realize there is some truth to it. A woman really doesn't care about shit like this, it's just buying for fun and that's that, a man will buy things to reaffirm whatever identity he designed for himself in his head. Basically, a woman is going to stay a woman even if she's deplorable in every way, and a normal man will never be caught buying gay shit.
>>
>>289684833
weren't those western fujos?
>>
>>289684858
This doesn't make sense considering how much money men drop on gacha games, which also generally isn't socially acceptable.
>>
>>289684909
Emphasis on NORMAL men.
>>
>>289684282
Yurifags spend hours a day convincing themselves everything under the sun involving two girls is yuri so that they can avoid buying actual yuri.
>>
>>289684871
Different case from months ago
Jap fujos just harassed Nippon Sangoku's author for telling fans not to send him shipping porn.
>>
BL is just more popular, there aren't as many yuri fans in general
>>
>>289684933
I don't think you understand my point.
The point is that the opinions of society and normal men do not stop the guys who are into gacha from playing and spending money on gacha, so clearly if it's something guys are actually into they're going to be into it regardless of what society thinks.
>>
>>289684990
You have a very confused definition of "normal" work on that then we can talk.

>>289684637
I would assume most yaoifags are on twatter
>>
>>289685057
those are for gay furries, not women
>>
>>289685063
Most yurifags are also on twatter.
Fujos just don't show up on 4chan since it's a site that's like 95% male.
>>
>>289685109
I've only ever seen actual fujos show up here for the osomatsu-san threads
>>
>>289684858
It's kinda similar to sex toys or pornography/erotica. It's ok for women, it's not ok for men. At least in public's eye.
>>
>>289685146
I think I saw one or two in the Elusive Samurai threads, but I dunno if they're still around since some anons tend to react pretty negatively to the gay shota art they post.
>>
>>289685109
>4chan is mostly male
>littered by yurifags because they are 100% male
Pretty much yeah
>>
>>289685176
I mean I don't really want to see the gay shota art
that's the real problem with omnipandering, you end up seeing stuff you DON'T want to see
>>
>>289684282
Straight, bi lesbian women love yaoi which comes with being born as a woman in blood for some reason.
Small amount of straight and bi men and even smaller amount of straight, bi, lesbian women like yuri.
Do the math.
Plus like someone said men who like yuri prefer to support it digitally like I do than showing it on my bookshelf as my precious secret.
>>
>>289685216
Thankfully I am both a lolicon and a shotacon, so I'm fine with art of either being fucked.

Coward.

I know, nobody in my family knows I like anime and manga, especially yuri kind and it gonna stay that way till they discover my remains and check my computer and accounts.

the counterpart to yuri is bara not yaoi

Men don't spend money on manga.
Women do.

Because love between 2 men is the purest form of love, that's why they have the lowest domestic abuse cases and divorces.
>>
>>289684282
Real answer for a bait thread:
Yuri fans have unintentionally stifled the genre by pretending the main audience isn't men. This has led to the industry failing to make yuri that appeals to men despite the obvious demand. See Mahoako, Watanare, Murcielago, etc.
>>
>>289685773
There's no demand from men, most yuri is literally gender swapped versions of your wishy washy romcoms with no serious plot line. Yaoi just has way better stories.

Tons of men, should that not attract the fujos like ants to honey?
>>
>>289684282
Yurifags are a vocal minority, I can guarantee you that there are probably more men who read yaoi than yuri.

>yuri is totally for women

very funny whenever people try this point in japanese yuri discussions people just post pictures of irl yuri events. The movie screenings of Watanare and Kaguya-hime being 90-100% men the most recent examples.
>>
>>289684282
because you call BL yaoi because you learned everything you know about Japan from 4chan archives and don't watch new anime
>>
>>289685896
BL and yaoi are the same thing tho, bara is different.
>>
>>289684282
Fujos bought more I guess. Fujo strong.
>>
>>289684858
Because men are constantly performing for other men. Men told other men liking certain things makes them gay or shounenfags or poor or third worlders.

As disgusting as Fujos are, they are far more supportive of what they like than Yurifags.

this is cope, btw. yuri is 50/50 men + troons and women while BL is 90/10 men/women
the real reason is most women are straight and men getting it on is sexy to them while women getting it on is just uninteresting

Post something actually based like some Samson covers.
>>
>>289684282
>Yaoifags
Two men? I buy. Simple as. As long as they stand at a 5km distance on the same room it's yaoi.
>Yurifags
>A gorillion quintillion buts and ifs and maybes and whens about how it's not "real yuri" and "doesn't count" or because of other crap like "le heckin' male gaze"
>They didn't fuck, have a IPS child, and then spend half the volume lecturing the viewer about lesbian relationships? It's not real yuri
>Extremely loud, picky and whiny and yet never walks their talk

There's nothing more painful than being a yurifag because you have to deal with the yuri fanbase. Yuri will never truly grow because its biggest enemy are the yurifags themselves.
It sucks being the 1% without these retarded, yuritard, as the kids say nowadays, mentalities.

Females are degenerate and have money to spend. Also, lesbian porn is fucking boring by nature.

Yaoi actually delivers the goods, it considers the vagina of the audience, Fujos shamelessly self insert or want to be sandwiched by their pretty boys. Yuri by contrast is too afraid of the presence of the reader’s penis, as if that defiles the appeal of the girls, and is therefore usually all bun no burger. Yuri would become more popular if it accepted its reality as male fantasy, or at least hybridized it like the magical girl genre did with male otaku.
Fantasy lesbian characters work best for a male audience when they are allowed to adopt, in part, the masculine eros. Without the wandering eye desiring the female form, the intense desire to pursue and possess and become one, all you’re left with is a very childish and safe depiction of love. Two wet-eyed awkward doe-deers blushing and admiring each other’s shampoo smell. What little drama remains tends to be an unwelcome annoyance, made even worse when it’s just “subtext” or “hints”.
The penis desires the whore as well as the virgin, most male-focused genres understand this and provide a well constructed synthesis. Yuri trends too far towards the virginal, most suitable for fluffy feelings if any at all.
