>>19498I don't feel the need to. The interaction was that I was replying to a post with updated information regarding a specific geological event related to plant-induced erosion during the devonian, they replied to me saying I was incorrect because there was massive erosion during the permian-jurassic bridge along with less plant biodiversity. So the problem is is that they could've just looked up what my comment was referencing and see that a lot of scientists agree with this theory and also the permian-jurassic extinction was marked with high sulphur levels, correlating to volcanic activity, which wasn't as significant during the devonian so these events most likely did not have the same cause for the measured release of marine carbonic acid.
Anyway, I'm not replying to my 4 month old comment about this for someone who deleted their message to see, lol. Silly

>>19494> I don't get to talk about plant evolution with anybody often, or anybody at all. Nobody talks about it.I know that feel very well.
Plant evolution is a very interesting topic, I wish I knew more about it, but I know nearly nothing. I work with plants, too, and I have been interested in the technical details about them: their anatomy, their chemistry, their taxonomy, and of course, their evolution.
I have sitting with me a few books on related topics (Raven's biology of plants, Cowen's history of life), but they are a bit too technical for me at times, me being focused on other stuff at the moment.
But whatever, if you have anything you could tell me, please do!
I also have this sort of trouble with people being wrong on the internet. I particularly had a discussion TWICE online with people who think there is just an endless supply of energy, their being so wrong really takes me back, because I just don't know where to start, or if it's at all worth arguing because they are seemingly set square in their beliefs, that even if I do make an argument, it wouldn't help much. It's not my place to educate random strangers on Burmese decorative knotting forums.

Whenever I see any gay content online I mentally remember this one chart I saw that graphed (fictional) gay couples into "gay yaoi for men", "gay yaoi for women", "straight yaoi for men", and "straight yaoi for women" and I always want to bring it up to my friends online but I don't because I know 100% for a fact they won't know what I'm talking about.

No.19597
>>19593Yaoi for straight women is easier to explain. The men look a very specific way and they often look very similar to one another within their media, like how boyband members may have a similar look to themselves.
Straight yaoi for men is harder for me to really explain but the examples I've seen of it has always been from media that either have homoerotic subtext rather than being explicit. Like maybe Batman and the Joker or something. I know someone online who has a better eye for straight yaoi (for men) because he's a heterosexual fudanshi but I don't really understand it all that much.
It's even harder for me to pinpoint "lesbian yaoi" which always throws people off when they see that phrase. You just know when you see it.
No.19598
>>19587I never had a yaoi phase, but I was chronically online as a kid & I know exactly what you're talking about. Even weirder is when you can tell a mainstream piece of media was written by someone who was or is pandering to straight woman yaoi fans. Even weirder when the gay couple is 100% inspired by fanfiction tropes.

>>19597okay, thanks
overall eh
i operate under the assumption that yaoi represents the homosexual relationship
its understandable how yaoi could be for homosexual or heterosexual women (though i suppose i never thought about what lesbians would like in yaoi and WHY they would watch it of all things - since they are lesbians and are not supposed to be particularly attracted to men as opposed to heterosexual women) - the yaoi is there to satisfy the heterosexual desire
but (likewise i guess) it's completely beyond me why a heterosexual man would have an interest in yaoi. if it's only an "implied" (like with the "yaoi goggles") yaoi when there is actual no homosexual relationship in place then i do not think it can qualify as yaoi, because there is no homosexual relationship
though if it isn't about the target audience and more about aesthetic to which some imaginary audience is attributed, then it kinda makes sense. tho again eh, gachimuchi is gay, i wouldn't want to call it "straight men yaoi", there is nothing straight about it. likewise, homoerotic subtext isn't enough to qualify as yaoi but even if we accept it, the heterosexual men wouldn't be the audience of that aesthetic, as opposed to the straight women in the opposite quadrant - i suppose it's a bit of a logic degradation overall, like, one could see what you are talking about but it shouldn't be presented like this at all then and no, i cannot get behind the wording of "lesbian" or "straight men" yaoi at all
also on a related note, what kind of "category" would a trap yaoi (like crossdressing, feminization) fall into ? gay men ? straight women ? what if it's something like shota on shota ? yea, i know, super pervy
No.19602
>>19601okay
straight women/gay men yaoi aesthetic categories (which perhaps come together with real audiences much like shoujo/shounen manga does) do make some sense tho, like there is nothing too strict about them but maybe some real people could fall into them (as in the audiences for them)
thankies

>>19597Straight women yaoi: the men are all pretty boys.
Gay men yaoi: the men look like actual men, but cute and squishy.
Lesbian yaoi: the men look like scene girls.
Straight men yaoi: the dudes look like dudes, but love each other in ways that could pass for bromance.
