    Afaik, Anne Rice was not trans. Many women identify with gay men in my experience. Her writing was very typical of women writing men.

    Her writing doesn’t represent the bara-type content shown in the second panel of the post, and to that point, your counterpoint is to the graphic in the post rather than to me.

    The picture in “gay mens yaoi” is characteristic of bara, for which there is already a term. I was just pointing that out. I wasn’t picking a fight.

      I was just joking around :)

      Her writing definitely falls under the “straight woman” yaoi stereotype in my opinion. I just think she’s neat and very silly.
