Re: But what are your thoughts on yaoi?
I think if you get down to a lot of yaoi manga/anime, then yes it does have a lot of old tropes and clichés - but even that is overestimated.
However, if you're talking about fanfic for Western Fandom vs. Manga, I think the difference is smaller, and it depends on the author. Like, I feel that an author who has the tendency to write clichés will do so regardless of the fandom, while with an author who doesn't it will also be noticeable in all their fandoms.
