I agree in the abstract that we should have more sensitive male friendships and more emotionally open male characters

I'm not sure about framing it as a competition for space in the ecosystem between that and female characters

But the anon they were replying to is not framing it as competition for space in the ecosystem. You are reading into it that way.

What the original anon said was, "I just like the idea of boys caring for each other, platonically or romantically. And here in the good ol' repressed US, you don't see much of that."

Which is generally true, besides the "bro" stuff.

If you are citing that as a reason to wish that Eleven actually had been a boy - which is what the secret actually said - then you're setting it up as a competition

Apparently that's not what OP actually meant I guess so whatever

I have a hard time figuring why you take

"For a moment"
not still, continuously, currently

"there was a tiny little piece of [OP]"
not all of OP, not wholeheartedly

as "OP did entirely and still do entirely" wish Eleven were a boy instead of, I don't know, "for a second there OP kind of wanted to see that."
