I thought that the "representation" she wanted was queerness, which would apply to the m/m pairing. The fact that they're white and sexy doesn't invalidate the representation. It's a false dichotomy often used to discredit women liking slash, I know, but in fact, writing what you find sexy and being able to see yourself in it in some way is a fine and GOOD way to do representation. So yes, it's entirely likely she wanted to do m/m for queer rep and also for sexy guys. The two can coexist. ("But why not write f/f with sexy girls, then?" You'll say. I don't know, ask the multitude of lesbians who prefer to write m/m and have already answered this question a million times.)

Yessss... I do agree with everything you're saying but it does seem a teeny bit rich to grind the representation axe, when your main diversity points are being scored in a way calculated to get your rocks off.

All of this, but also I believe Pacat is actually non-binary and male-aligned (though I don't believe they have a preference for pronouns) so it's entirely possible that they feel m/m queerness is what represents them best.

Of course she is.
