AYRT - I get that some people are as sensitive to this stuff regardless of gender or sex or any other form of identity.

I'm still squicked by injustices towards men in fanfic, but the sensitivity is dialed down a bit because I'm less self-identified with the characters than I am with a female character. And because I, as a woman, have dealt with a lot of sexist shit directed at me due to my sex/gender, whereas I've never been a man (gay or otherwise) and dealt with the specific stuff that gets directed at them.

Everybody's different about this stuff. But IMO the tens of thousands of women who like and reblog posts talking about how they enjoy m/m because it frees them to enjoy fantasies without a lot of the baggage that comes with m/f for them, are expressing their honest experience. They're not saying it because they don't want to admit that they just like dicks touching (in fact most of them will freely admit they like dicks touching). They're saying it because it's true for them.

Yes, this.
Basically, if there's a M/M romance and things get warped, I close and downvote the book. If it's a M/F there's probably a big chance I am going to waste my time writing discourse and being really angry at the world at the large when maybe I should ... just close, instead. But I can't.
