it's made by women for women, what the fuck did you expect

there is a subgenre of manga aimed at actual gay men, but i can't remember what it's called. lgbt subculture in japan isn't like it is in the west, though, so there isn't much of it.

it's called geicomi, anon, and there's more than you think, it just isn't usually scanned, much less translated, for western audiences.

it's also, like, 90% porn, but hey, that's how it rolls.

one of the best, non-porn examples (that was actually published in the US! and was nominated for an eisner award!) is My Brother's Husband by Gengoroh Tagame. i'd recommend it to anyone, it's beautiful and touching and made me cry a fucking lot.

yaoi/bl is part of slash, but really if they want for us/by us gay male content, anon was just giving an example of something they can look into.

don't get so defensive on op's behalf.
