quick question for those of you familiar

[kaigou]

...with yaoi-girls and/or (female) m/m fans. Of those you've known/met in the subculture who prefer the m/m and avoid the m/f, have any of them ever explained the reasoning behind their preference? Beyond just the younger version of "well, m/f is icky" or the lazier version of "I just don't like m/f". Anything more in-depth, more honest, more insightful?

Because the only explanations I've ever gotten amount to variations on those two, and that's not much substance when it comes to deconstructing what, exactly, is going on for readers with the preference.

the Micky Mouse/Tom doujinshi

Wow, and here I thought I'd seen it all with the Muppet Movie doujinshi. Hold on, I'll reply to the rest of your post once my brain has finished processing Mickey Mouse and... Tom. Uhm. Processing. Processing.

*explodes*

THANK YOU I DIDN'T NEED THAT PART OF MY CHILDHOOD ANYWAY OMFG.

My bad, Tom and Jerry. I was brain-dead last night. No Mickey, if that at all makes it any better...
