And yet it's interesting that so many women introduce those power problems into a male/male relationship, often mangling characterization in the process. I don't intend this as an argument or anything, the comment just made me think when I read it.

I think it's less about trying to code m/f gender roles onto m/m couples and just writing what you know - I mean, the media is saturated with m/f couples, so where are you going to get the kind of context and experience necessary to be able to write an m/m dynamic?

I don't think it's about coding one character as the "woman", either. With het porn, the reader is assumed to identify with the woman, but with slash, you don't necessarily identify with the "uke", so to speak. I mean, just look at any number of fangirls squeeing over some cute uke character and - to quote one of the secrets posted here in the last week about Kuroshitsuji - "feeling like a pedo."

Er, I don't really know where I'm going with this, but I think it's more complicated than "Yaoi equals hot dude and chick with dick". Not to say the stereotypes are positive or any less lame, just that it's.... complicated. >_>
