Re: Lol this wank ALWAYS comes up!

[(Anonymous)]

90% of the fandom wants to pretend it's a totally legit queer LGBT romance representation extravaganza

Made-up statistics don't prove anything about the fandom. js.

And tbh I'm pretty sure most people who jumped to the "it's so progressive!" boat did it because it's the "right" thing to do in the current environment on tumblr.
It's a way to not get attacked by antis that go after all evil cis-fujoshis who dare to watch something for the wrong (aka not SJ approved) reasons.

Also:

I do think YOI isn't above criticism

And no one is saying otherwise? The problem here is people like you acting like the show is offensive by not having the perfect, realistic representation you want to see.
It didn't try to be that from the first place (which is my point), and enjoying it instead of complaining that it isn't something else is perfectly ok.

(FWIW IA with " LGBT people shouldn't be relegated to a special bookshelf and special indy production companies" but I also think that, in entertainment media, normalization is far better than realistic representation, so I'm pretty sure what each of us want to see in media is pretty different)
