It bothers me to have come to read yuri and that it is not, it is disappointing.The prince is cute and everything but I feel that he is in the way, besides that the villain and the protagonist seem friends more than lovers...Sometimes you come to a story to read a romance of two girls or sometimes you go to a story to read romance between a boy and a girl, and it's annoying when it's not what they give you

This isn't what I'm talking about. I'm speaking of the times when people are outraged that this site would even host something other than their "pure yuri," whatever the hell that is. The people that literally sound like the bigots who have hated us our entire lives simply for who we are.

that's not a problem, if they upload other things besides yuri it's fine,this clearly is not,but even so it is tagged as one
and what do you mean with "

I'm not against bisexuality nor polyamory but this just felt plain.

Totally agree. I'm open to read almost any other genre/tags, and I've done it. But I was hoping for a nice yuri story and this is everything but yuri. Also is kinda disappointing to see that the yuri tag is still there, is like that Transistor Venus thing all over again

"Yuri:Female + female relationship(s).
Should be mostly explanatory when reading the chapter/series.
Does NOT matter what the setting is, just needs to have a relationship involving two women (including transgender women)."
It doesn't matter if the girl is bisexual or lesbian it has to involve two females,and this is not a relationship between two girls,it's a polyamorus or a friendship idk everything but yuri

This ending seemed really abrupt and out of nowhere, was this supposed to have been wrapped up so quick?

Yeah, my main problem with the prince isn't even that he's a dude it's that he's just kind of a cardboard cutout that is also present.

Exactly. There's either sexual nor romantic relationship between females here. Also usually the works including the bisexual and yuri tag usually ends with the female couples together. I guess the yuri tag can be difficult to use when combined with certain tags, but for example, I really doubt someone here would classify a porn movie into the lesbian genre just because it includes a FF scene, specially if it evolves into a FFM scene. It would be classified into its respective genre so the consumer knows what to expect.

If you haven't seen those people yet, be thankful for the mods. They appear every once in a while and attempt to spread their bigotry.

This is satire guys, its taking the genre and invalidating the core conflict entirely

Sure its not hilarious But whatever

Ngl I loved this. It did feel kinda weird because there’s no clear romantic love going on except between the prince to the villainess and maybe from her to him, while it seems like the two girls just don’t want to leave each other rather than love each other. Even so I was surprised and I’m a sucker for “happy” endings.

Except tags are not genres. Tags are there to give you a heads up to the content of the specific work. If there's a relationship even hinted at between women, it can be tagged with yuri. People might want to take a look at the tags for this work as of right now. I think it's a bit more than when people first started ranting.

I wonder what causes more discourse here. People mad that bisexuality and polyamory exist, or the cheating-themed stories we occasionally get.

Don't forget teacher-student love stories. And incest.

Except this work didn't have a yuri relationship. Also what is subtext?

I don't like het generally, including in this one, but that aspect is fairly minimized, so this one doesn't bother me too much.

'side, it's my own darn fault for reading a work tagged with het anyway.

Personally, I didn't get the sense that the protagonist has any feelings for anyone. If you'll notice, they carefully avoid ever actually using the word "love" between the two women.
You could probably infer that there's romance there, but at that point it starts feeling like subtext. Strong subtext, but just subtext nevertheless. Maybe it's just clumsy writing.

Trust me, I really wanna yuri-goggles it up here and get some good gay reads in, but I'm just not feeling it here. Clearly other people feel differently, but clearly I'm not the only one either.

"My precious one" seems pretty darn gay to me. Maybe it's just me. I've never called by best friend "my precious one" ever.

Recipe to a long thread for a One Shot : - Include a tag like Bisexual or Lolicon or an author like Itou Hachi -??? - Profit

There shouldn't be any discourse involving people mad that bisexuality and polyamory exist. Or heterosexual relationships for that matter. They should simply be banned from this site. Nobody has to put up with that garbage.

Just to follow up. There can be some measure of reasonable discussion about tagging choices, genre expectations, and/or their relation to story content. Open biphobia, transphobia, etc. will not be tolerated. Do feel free to get in touch if you see that lurking.

I feel like there was a good idea here, but the story was simply too short to execute it. Most likely can't be helped if the author was given a page limit for the omnibus though.

I'm willing to bet this is exactly what happened with these. Especially considering we got a similar reaction with another not-so-fleshed-out annulment story a few days ago.
