Well, it's surely because yaoi stories are riddled with rape and pedophilia, and that makes most "hetfags" with weak sexualities turn into "yaoifags."

Rape yes though that’s a common trope in female aimed media anyways but pedoshit? Nah, shotas are a niche among fujos with Black Butler being the only real popular pedo fujoship, meanwhile lolis are a common occurance in anime aimed at moids.

It was always like this all over the world. Women read more and buy more books. Many times more.
>>
>>291267254
That's a stupid way of looking at things.
'Het' doesn't mean anything. Everything is het. Only shitposting trolls trying to bait use this phrase on 4chan.
'Yaoi' is mostly about shallow smut stories. Basically softcore porn akin to 50 Shades of Grey or whatever.
"Yuri" are mostly character driven drama stories which actually require a brain to enjoy, unlike yaoi.
So basically porno with two hot chicks are basically yaoi which is basically perfect for straight men.

If you look at light novels, there are two yuri ones that are popular right now.

Perhaps I worded it wrong. What I mean is: Most Yuri has one girl who is an outright sexual abuser (this is erotic). I do not desire that with my OnixShota content though, every so often is nice, who am I kidding, I'll take anything I can get right now. We are the most oppressed class.

Indeed, in the first season, there was a canonically lesbian couple; if I recall correctly, one of the older magical girls was in a romantic relationship with a young, tomboyish magical girl. The latter ended up committing suicide after losing her girlfriend—who had died following bad advice given during a battle.

Believe it or not, that is very true; most men dislike stories with female characters but feel truly comfortable with an all-male cast engaging in activities like fighting, to the point where many heterosexual men end up hooked on a yaoi series like Wind Breaker, and Shonen Jump is well aware of this.

There are two yuri airing that season: Murcielago and Green Yuri. And while I don't want to jinx it (but nor I do really care for it), the later is probably going to be one of the most popular series of the year.

>>291268666
It's kinda subjective, but for me at least, yuri has a lot of advantages over other straight romance for guys. Namely, it has faster romantic developments, more on-screen intimacy, and more side couples. It seems to me at least that modern seinen/shounen romance is more built around the fantasy of having girls attracted to you rather than the fantasy of actually doing anything romantic with those girls. Even something like isekai usually skips over the romance and just has the protagonist fuck his slave harem. So I'd rather just watch over a cute yuri relationship rather than self-insert myself into the modern romance protagonist.

>inb4 just read shoujo
Yuri has advantages over shoujo in that the fanservice isn't focused on male bodies and the protagonist aren't really designed for the audience to self-insert as.

>>
>>291265680
Except there’s dozens upon dozens of yuri or yuribait anime airing just this season when it’s like pulling teeth to get a fujo one, fujos are literally and unironically THE most oppressed sector of anime fandom, that’s why fujo hating cunts like Naoko Takeuchi are being allowed to retcon cute & canon fujo ships like KilluGon and no one tried to stop her meanwhile no one would ever dare pull that shit with an established yuri ship.

It’s the reason why fujoGOD Ikuhara was cucked out of his own rights to the IP by both her and Toei and the fujo friendly 90’s anime has been shoved back into the vault never to be treated as equally canon as her fujofree yuritroon manga, and it’s also the reason why the entire Magical Girl genre has turned into nothing but yuritroon incel bait driving all the fujo fanservice and us original fujos out only to be replaced by smelly old men incels instead, can you imagine the outrage and riots if we fujos dared to take over the yuribait CGDCT genre and made it into Cute BOYS Doing Cute Things? We would never be allowed yet somehow moids feel like they have the right to colonize and take over our exclusive female spaces and make it catered to the male gaze instead.

>>291267574
>Madoka
>female-oriented yuri
Except it’s not and belongs in the right column instead because it’s the very result of a genre Naoko Takeuchi ruined and even takes direct inspiration from the Sailor Moon manga (the Stars arc in particular) in being male-gaze pandering yuritroon trash. That’s why all the character designs are pedobait moeblobs and there are barely any male characters, it’s even labeled as seinen instead of shoujo.

So does gay sex between men, so does that make it better than straight sex? Theoretically, futa with both parts would be even better because they can do and receive anything possible. Sex is going to do different between people. Not every sex scene needs to focus on the penetration, even in straight stuff, as different ones who focus more or less on the foreplay leading up to it.
>>
>>291265934
The actual reason is aside from a minority of fetishists, actual cuckholds, women like being cucked more than men. If a man is powerful and loved by other women, women like that, but if a woman is loved by other men, men hate that and call her a slut. Keys and doors. Moving over to Yaoi, women can remove themselves from the scenario entirely and still be really enthusiastic. Men like to self-insert more into erotic material, which is why so much ecchi stuff is 1 guy and 50 women. Being cucked by another woman is better than being cucked by a man, but male generally want to believe yuri allows for the girls to be bisexual and into us. If it's TOO yuri then it's like a soft low level cuck.
