The LBGT laws in russia are most certainly discrimination, probably one of the most discriminating develop countries in that regard. If you want to call access to basic information 'propaganda' I get the feeling that you're not quite unbiased on this matter. What bothers me is if I'm trying to have a conversation about a subject, in this case the specific sport of that anime and I'm interrupted to just talk about one gay ship. For god's sake I have alot of ships myself so I get it.
So with respect I say (like I said many times, and like you said) "sorry not really into that, I was talking about the actual game" and I either have two reactions: 1) they completly shift the conversation to just the gay ship ignoring my comment about the game, 2) get pissed at me for not sharing the same passion for yaoi.ĭo I really care if people love yaoi? No, ship wtv you want to ship, that doesn't bother me. What I'm trying to say here is it annoys me if I'm talking about a specific anime let's say Haikyuu right? And I'm talking about a certain game and one of my friends starts talking about a gay ship. I have friends who love yaoi and who have gay ships in these type of animes. And I can't blame them for doing what they enjoy, but I can blame all the salty males who see these shows through the same lenses as the fujoshi but constantly complain about I'll repeat what I said before.

The mindset of how to watch sports anime has gotten far bigger than just them. So you can't really blame it on just the fujoshi. On the other hand I've encountered a lot of grumpy males complaining that gayness is overtaking recent seasons because of these sports anime and that only fujoshi watch them and males could only enjoy them if they are gay themselves. Fujoshi like the gay ships, but most of them won't tell you it's the only thing you can watch it for. The idea that they can only be enjoyed if you like gay shipping is actually stronger among males.

Just look at any thread related to Kuroko, Haikyuu or Free or just generally modern sports anime.
It seems to be the consensus that these shows are all 100% gay and you can only watch them that way even among large parts of the male anime community. In fact, because I don't frequent tumblr or any fujoshi circles, I see more male fans calling any sports anime gay these days. If fujoshi ships are part of the deal I'm totally down for that.Īlso it's not just the fujoshi.
I love sports anime and I don't care why they are produced as long as I get a healthy dose of them each year. That includes ships if I have any.Īnd I'm just glad that the fujoshi boom made it so much more sports anime are produced. The stuff I enjoy talking about are the characters, their development, personalities, and relationships. Personally I don't really feel like I need to discuss the sports aspect in sports shows so it doesn't bother me in that regard. That is a bit out of place if you ask me. Which is more or less what this thread seems to be about. But I'm not gonna tell them SHUT THE FUCK UP AND DON'T TALK ABOUT ANYTHING BUT SPORTS OR I'LL MAKE A THREAD ABOUT HOW MUCH I HATE YOU. I'm like 'I'm just watching this for the sports so idc about ships.'. I don't usually participate when female friends of mine talk about ships in shows like that. You don't have to participate in these discussions. Surely there can have homophobic hicks there who beat up anyone who behaves differently, but those people exist everywhere in the world and you shouldn't blame just Russia for it. In my knowledge only gay propaganda is forbidden there, and otherwise gays have the same rights that the rest of the population have. Both interpretations are correct (at least as long as there is no season 2 to define the relationship more).Īnd in one of your comments you claimed that Russia has "abused" their gay citizens, which I'd like to see proof of. But it doesn't justify attacking other people who don't see the romance in it and want to see Victor and Yuuri as just friends and as a skater & coach team. LGBTXYZBBQwhatever people may want to treat it as some sort of epitome of progressiveness, and they're completely entitled to do that if they wish to interpret it as a gay romance. Therefore, it's just the same as other sports anime with lots of male bonding and shouldn't be treated any differently. Sure, they tease it a lot but the creators have stated that it can all be interpreted in any way the viewer likes it. Sorry to burst your bubble but nowhere is it stated that Yuri on Ice has an "official" pairing.
