why

[identity profile] atelierlune.livejournal.com 2012-01-15 11:28 pm (UTC)(link)
I'm no encyclopedia of fandom, but I know of no wank surrounding f/f or yuri pairings and plenty around m/m or yaoi ones. It is very possible that it exists, I just don't know of it.

Perhaps "starting wank" was a bad choice of words. It just seems like there is a lot of back and forth about age, power dynamics, and other issues people find troubling about m/m pairings in anime vs. teh hotness in a fandom like, say Kuroshitsuji (where, yes, the age gap is bigger but Kirika may or may not be the age of consent according to profiles online), and to recast Noir with two men would open it up to the same conflicts. Why aren't those conflicts being leveled at Noir right now? I don't know.

It seems to me that OP wishes that Noir had a bigger fandom (please correct me if I misunderstand, OP) and that Noir being about two males would have brought that, but I don't think that's necessarily a good thing. I think they should make more series like Noir featuring two women instead. Kirika and Mireille ought to be able to stay who they are.

I think the OP is merely pointing out the hypocrisy in that it'd have a flourishing fandom if they were guys; not that the OP wishes they WERE dudes, if that makes sense?

At least that's how I interpreted it.

That's what I'm saying, that perhaps OP wishes they were dudes because THEN the fandom would be bigger and more active.

Yeah that's how I read the secret too.

How is liking one thing better than another hypocritical?

because apparently people don't have different interests.
