\\\"Het is Ew gets a lot nastier in the US fandom. Any girl who is seen as getting in the way of the Ho Yay will instantly draw the fire of a thousand fanfics in English, leaving the Japanese fandom to wonder what all the fuss is about (a lot of yaoi fangirls there actually are happy to pair the girls up together at the same time).\\\"
This isn\\\'t true. I\\\'ve come across [[NotSoDifferent many Japanese fangirls]] who believe HetIsEw. The fangirls are less vocal, rabid and numerous simply because they tend to be older. And what does pairing the girls up have to do with HetIsEw? If anything, that\\\'s very common among fangirls who think HetIsEw.
Also, this example reads like it\\\'s saying that Japanese fangirls don\\\'t bash the female characters in the way of Yaoi as much because they\\\'re more mature and enlightened. Perhaps that\\\'s true to a degree, but one has to note that homosexuality in Japan is not accepted in mainstream, most instances of it in anime/manga are merely [[GirlOnGirlIsHot shallow]] [[GuyOnGuyIsHot fanservice,]] and the characters involved are [[BaitAndSwitchLesbians rarely actually homosexual]]. So Japanese Yaoi fangirls don\\\'t militantly obsess over their ships like western Yaoi fangirls do, but not for very good reasons.
