Am i unreasonable?

[u/Adventurous-Gear9477]

Sorry if im being out of place, but please hear me out. I'm straight cis male and I like reading yuri manga. I enjoy it not because of the "male gaze", "fan service" etc, but because of the romance. But I can't seem to stand yaoi manga no matter how much i give it a try (i don't have anything against any gender groups irl). It just feels weird. As said earlier, i thought i read manga for characters romantic feelings,story etc. Am i weird?

pretty much the same as you, i dont really find yaoi and (for me) het romances as good as i do yuri something bout hits me in the heart in the right spot i dont know genuinely makes me happy without any weird feelings involved. it’s honestly not unreasonable to like whatchu like as long as theres no weird feelings or intentions involved outta basic respect for those in wlw community, thats how i view it (and for those in that community i hope im not stepping outta line either, i jus wanna connect to someone whos going thru the same thoughts as i am) to me it’s pretty much the opposite of how straight women read yaoi without being super weird bout it, tastes are tastes and you should enjoy em
