how come straight women love to ship male idols together?

  • why do some women have a strong obsession with shipping male idols who aren't publicly gay together?


    ships like larry, taekook and jikook are very popular and I noticed majority of their fans that believe they are together/married are straight women....


    why do they like reading explicit content and make 18+ edits of two men who aren't together? I find it very off

  • Have you heard about yaoi/bl?

    Yaoi (/ˈjaʊi/; Japanese: やおい [ja.o.i]), also known by the wasei-eigo construction boys' love (ボーイズ ラブ, bōizu rabu) and its abbreviation BL (ビーエル, bīeru), is a genre of fictional media originating in Japan that features homoerotic relationships between male characters.[a] It is typically created by women for women and is distinct from homoerotic media marketed to gay men, but it does also attract a male audience and can be produced by male creators

  • fujoshis are annoying, not all I've met fun and nice ones however it is rare. In general better not to think about it too much they are weirdos anyways

    soooo weird

  • Same reason some straight men imagine two women together

  • They ship male idols together because they can control that fantasy. It means any dating rumors or even confirmed dating with any woman can't possibly be real so women cease to be any kind of threat. And the ship is usually in the same group so that the fan becomes intensely focused on the group on several different levels. Companies do this stuff on purpose.


    The ickiest part is that m/m shippers (and f/f) will tell themselves they are lgbt supporters or allies for this. Yet there is an openly gay idol who gets paid dust. And any current male idol who came out as gay would probably lose his fanbase and career.
