So a while back, someone on a forum called me a fujoshi because I gave Black Butler a 10, to which I then looked up its definition (i didn't know what it was at the time). I then responded with a message similar to this:
"I gave Black Butler a 10 because I loved the show. Everything about it is unique. And while I do ship Ciel and Sebastian, I'm not one of those crazy fan girls for it."

So If I may ask your opinions...
Why do you think the anime community show hate towards fujoshis?

Because there are loads of hypocrites in anime fandom...they're no worse than other anime fan groups. They're not even that vocal on forums etc...leave them alone I'd say

Have you met any of them?! I think they're annoying as heck. They're literally everywhere at my school.

I have nothing against yaoi and shipping, cause I too am guilty of reading yaoi/shipping, but damn.

Also every fujo I've met watches the same gosh darn shows and refuse to watch anything else. OooooOoOoO this is one of the only things that bug me about the anime communtiy.

I don't interact a ton with the anime fandom but I know at least in the LGBT+ circles I've lurked in, fujoshi (and fudanshi) are hated because it's seen as fetishizing a marginalized group. They kind of get lumped in as a special "straight guy with a lesbian fetish" type. I've heard stories of gay people getting gross comments from fetishists about wanting to see them make out or getting too intense about how "cute" they find them, including at anime conventions, and it's creepy and crossing a line. I personally don't know how common that is but at the very least I've seen some less-than-great posts and comments of that nature online.

Outside of that, people just tend to find fans annoying when they get too intense about a topic, especially if it's one that's not mainstream. This happens with anime fans in general (weeaboos) and fujoshi are just the anime community's subtype of that I think. Media that's popular with those types then gets branded and if you happen to enjoy it as well people sometimes assume you're "one of them". (And to be fair, there's a fair amount of vocal fujoshi in the Black Butler fandom in particular, which makes it an easy target. I enjoy that series as well but these days I wouldn't touch any fan material with a 10 foot pool for fear of the pedofujoshi somehow transmitting their cooties)

It's also possible some of it might be linked to homophobia since I see less hate for fudanshi than fujoshi (gay men are usually considered grosser than lesbians), but maybe that's just because it's not quite as big or vocal of a crowd.

The anime community shows hate towards everyone.

You gave an anime a low score? you will get hate;
You gave something a high score? you will get hate;
You are an elitist? you will get hate;
You are a casual? you will get hate;
You talk shit about an anime? you will get hate;
You like an anime? you will get hate;
You like lolis? you will get hate;
You like tsunderes? you will get hate;
You like old anime and think new anime is shit? you will get hate;
You like new anime and don't want to watch old anime? you will get hate;

Anything you do, some part of the community will hate you for it, but I see mostly fujoshis complaining about getting hate, or threads asking why they're hated.

So, you and them need to learn that this is the internet and no matter what you do, someone will hate you for it, grow a thicker skin and stop letting words hurt you.

Simple. There are lots of male anime fans compared to female ones. Obviously it'll be mostly voiced out by tons of male anime fans.

Them having gay ships aren't the problem, but have you ever talk to some? I'm not saying all of them are bad, I have friends who are fujoshis and I am was a fudanshi myself, but trust me, they can potentially be the most obnoxious side of the anime community.

I am okay with people being gay, with that I don't want to see a man make out with a man or a women make out with a women. From what I have experienced fujoshis, tend to be really perverted and weird and are extremely annoying

I am going to be more clear. I don't care if you are gay or not, I just don't necessarily go out searching for people of the same gender making out, and for that matter, anyone making out in public makes me uncomfortable

I was half-joking (just half tho)

anyone making out in public makes me uncomfortable


It's probably due to internalized homophobia and shit

I dont think that necessarily follows. I'm also ok with people being gay, but given the choice I'd rather not watch two guys bang each other. Being ok with it happening and being ok with witnessing it are different

Because I've talked to a few of them extensively and their minds were like broken records with nothing on them but yaoi couple pairings (even in things with zero subtext) and their favorite "sexy" sounding male VAs. For me it doesn't even have anything to do with homosexuality, it's just that people with one-track minds are just incredibly annoying.

You ever tried talking to a fujoshi? They are not really nice to talk to. They are probably the worst part of the Anime community.

Don't mind me voicing out my thoughts but . . .

Okay so I'm also a fujoshi and yes we already get the hate we deserve, but tbh, I'm not that very pushy or too much fangirl on my gay ships unless you count the kiss scenes bc I'm so innocent for the sex part XD and also there are not much fujoshis around me irl. Sure, we can get ahead of it, but I believe it's something that piques our interest a lot. What else . . . Ah, yes, I know people are so self-preserve on their beliefs, but that doesn't mean that you should be close-minded about it. The world is constantly changing so everything around us changes. So it's up to you to catch up with the change or not.

I guess that's all. You can hate us more but ofc, in any fandom, there should be always respect about it. ^^;

Because they tend to be extreme with their shippings and they like to fetishize gay couples.

Some fujos have shipping wars on who is bottom and who is on top which is very silly to be honest. It really shows that the people shipping them don't really care about the characters' chemistry. They only care about what looks the hottest.

Its largely because most of the anime community consists of heterosexual males. Watching two males having sex as a heterosexual male is like admiring world contributions created by cancer. Another reason is fujoshi's have a insane obsession with shipping male characters that often have zero romantic chemistry in the source material. Imagine having a large dedicated community that ships every male character together in anime with a sizeable presence that the author gets death threats if they make characters not gay.

People will receive hate no matter why.
In case of fujos it's a little bit worse because there are some people out there, usually men, with close minded view out here that don't mind voicing their opinions- liking gay stuff is bad, disgusting, gross and you all should stop whenever liking lesbian is not because it's hot.
In the end, all you can do is to ignore the haters.
I'm watching anime since 2012. I also play games, sometimes.

Don't bother me if you want to 'become friends' or things like that.
It's tiresome. I know you just want to collect some meaningless numbers.

Several reasons. Most prominent ones being:
1. Ignorant fucks who judge the entire fandom based on the extremists, who also happen to be the loudest ones in the community
2. Double standards. It's okay to have yuri ships but yaoi ships are disgusting. Fetishization happens with yuri ships too, but hypocrites conveniently never see that bc it's easier to hate people for doing smt wrong, than accepting you're part of the problem yourself.
3. Entitlement - Incels cannot stand that there's a market out there that doesn't cater specifically to their needs.

To quote myself: "It only takes one idiot to ruin something"

Even if it's just a small percentage that act a certain way, if enough people see them,everyone will assume they all act that way.

I don't know how much that applies to this situation though as I've never encountered any fujoshis. Either that, or I've just been overlooking them the whole time.

See? The Tokyo Ghoul one reaches everywhere and I don't see anyone posting this anywhere. Simply double standards. Because it's completely ok to lewd every anime girls and ship yuri ships and people going batshit crazy over their straight ships but god forbid whenever it comes to fujoshis they automatically become obnoxious for doing basically anything. There are extremists in every fandom but of course people will judge an entire group of people based on them. I won't deny that there aren't any extreme fangirls in the fujoshi fandom but isn't that the case for like every fandom? There are obnoxious people everywhere if you do interact with each one of them.
