Yaoi Fans Hate Girls?

[Yumi_Kirei]

I've never done that. o.o I just watch the anime(And of course I slash), but I never actually got to the part where an anime girl ruined the show...I mean they have to be there, it's their plot. >.>

Kairi, from kingdom hearts should die .
sora and riku should go out 4laugh

I used to think that way too until Kingdom Hearts II. I realized the fact that, since she was mostly in a coma (in a sense) in KHI, she couldn't contribute in much of a way other than the princess in need of rescue. In the second game, she did somewhat stand up on hew own two feet - as much as she could.

And hey, if it weren't for her, Sora and Riku wouldn't have been together by the end of the second game. biggrin

I have never liked the main female of anything, ever.
It's not because of me liking a slash paring or anything... because i hated the females even before i knew what Yaoi was.
I just find them annoying. I mean, they ALL need to be protected, or care about feeling too much, or are way too obsessed with the guy they like.
See, thats why the android of the Xenosaga series is awsome... she practicaly has no emotion. (Robin from Witch Hunter Robin is cool, too...)
Its always about love with the main girls... it drives me nuts!

I think the main problem here is that most anime is made by men who do little to look into the minds of females or they are selling to male majority and female stereotyping can be overlooked.
That and there is the difference in Japanese and American culture on viewing females (too lazy for that).

There used to be the whole silent, innocent, damsel-in-distress-ish, strength thing which I think Yuna and countless others were based on.
Then there's the hyperactive, caring airhead, etc., etc.

Guys also have their stereotypes in anime. But usually it is the male that is the main character and it is the main character that usually gets the main character development or at least get the story focused and that means pushing others into the background.
The female lead also plays a special role. I mean, who else would always be there for the male lead no matter what? If she is strong, stays innocent, and maybe doesn't think too much, it would be a guarantee. And a hell of a lot easier to write.

Females who watch can feel insulted, I think, on some level. Heck, some males who watch felt insulted.

And if that female lead is too...flat? of a character (no pun intended), what would anyone see in her? And having her win the main guy's heart is kind of threatening. Something to do with male lead usually=the representation of all that is good male and female lead=all that is good female. It says they are supposed to act that way or could be interpreted so. I think this thing also goes back in religious stories and so forth.

Then of course, there are the people who really do just hate because of the yaoi pairing. There has got to be another reason for hating besides that. People can't be that airheaded?/shallow?/petty can they? I don't know. I hope there really is no such person...leave me to my delusions damn you xd

edit: and I would also like to defend post-time skip manga version of Sakura. I thought she was awesome. She helped kill an Akatsuki member, that's something, and became a lot more focused.

I dislike some anime girls, but for diferent reasons. Exampl: Sakura from Naruto. She's annoying, i dislike her personality. Also, Kairi, from kingdom hearts, she's really annoying.
But i like most of the girl characters in final fantasy, and the ones in digimon too.

3nodding yeah i agree.
the girls in digimon are really cool
but got sakura's personality is just so week  

[Palomino_Tenechi]

Some anime girls do have a tendency to become annoying. It always seems to be the damsel in distress needed rescuing by the guy. In regard to yaoi, some girls can ruin a certain atmosphere but then again, they can add to that atmosphere. Especially if a guy is coming in terms with his sexual preference.  

[spykitty93]

I don't HATE them, I just dislike. I only hate girls when people destroy the best yaoi couples by pairing one (or both) with girls. Like, personaly, I don't like SakuraXSasuke or SakuraXNaruto, because Naruto and Sasuke is one of the best pairings in the show. Sakura can, like, have Kakashi or something...
Also, SoraXRiku is another great couple, and I hate when people put Kairi with either Sora or Riku.
Okay so I mainly dislike those two or their annoyingness, but still...  

[Nobility Glistens]

Yes, I love women in anime. I may dislike Sakura because of her personality, but I do like Kagome. She, while not physically strong, is quite tough mentally. I like that.

I don't see why it's that big of a deal. Sure, it's irrational for them to hate the girls over something so petty, but isn't that the point of a fan fic? To delve into whatever little disturbed fantasy you have and blow things out of proportion. Yes, I know, because of them we have all been stereotyped and I think it sucks, but I guess I don't see the harm in fan-girls hating hetero-pairings.

I think the logic behind hating a female just for Yaoi action is stupid, but as I said before, I don't see the problem. Also, it’s as someone else said in the topic already, some idiot will just take his or her's place anyway. Besides, people are always going to hate a character for whatever reason. Hell, there are people who hate the main characters from Suikoden 5 because of their names.

Oh and, I want to make my position on this matter clear. I, in no way support hating a female character simply for Yaoi butt sechs. I find that idiotic and pointless; besides, if you want Inuyasha to hook up with Vash then go make a fan fic about it instead of hoping Kagome gets sucked into the wind tunnel. I simply don't see an issue with them conducting in the same practice that others have for years.

I agree, but I liked Sasori! Why can't they just kill off Orochimaru. He’s like freaking Naraku. He needs to die already.

There are quite a few people who want to destroy Ayaka-chan from Gravitation. I think she's okay, but lots of people don't like hetero Hiro.

And you do need some guy/girl relationships or it gets too unrealistic. All the guys can't be gay. That just gets too far out.

You just described every BL game in Japan. X3

[..If you cannot bite..

There are some anime girls that I can't stand.
Like Winry from Full Metal Alchemist.
She's okay at times, seeing that she have helped Edward and Alphonse a lot.
I like Lt. Hawkeye, but it annoys me that so many sees her with Colonel Mustang.
Darnit. He's with Ed!
gonk

..never show your theeth..]

 

[A Gentleman Caller]

Ha.
Although they can be annoying,
I don't really hate the girls...

But sometimes I do dislike them,
but it's never cause they ruin anything.

It's as other people mentioned,
and their personalities drive me insane [in the bad way]

Heh. I'm not a big fan of Kairi from KH,
just like a couple others in this thread,

but it's not cause I think Riku & Sora should be together.
I just don't like her personality.
