the thing is shounen jump relies on its large female audience while simultaneously publishing content that is degrading towards women.
No internet, Shonen jump never hated women. They just weren't the target audience, and as such the stories focused on male perspectives a lot.

i think one of the big reasons some male anime fans struggle to connect to shoujo series is because the can’t relate to women, and they also can’t relate to beautiful men.

saying haikyuu isn’t political when a major theme of the series is how socioeconomic status effects the opportunities you get in life is certainly a take.
it's literally just volleyball. it has no complex themes or moral issues or great conflicts. it's weird to compare it to battle shonen. also the ending of hq was just fanservice, which doesn't equal to amazing writing imo.

when shoujo and josei series are given the same respect and acclaim as their male demographic counterparts, i will tolerate your lecture on how “women read shounen too”.

maybe i’m crazy but having a female character who likes ‘perverted’ things isn’t that ground breaking if she’s still the object of sexual desire instead of the one desiring.
Throughout this series, Marin is always the one pushing societal boundaries of what is considered acceptable for girls to like. She plays eroge, watches ecchi anime, and loves underboob. This is who she is. And this is why the series has fanservice.

it’s crazy how yuri and shoujo fans are the only manga communities that have to prove their virtue before people will even consider reading their stories.
This is incredibly disingenuous. People promote separating the fandom from the actual works but when the work is centered around women suddenly people don't want to read/watch it because "oh the fanbase".

no cause why is it that there is so much demand for battle shounen with a good romantic subplot, but when a shoujo series does just that it’s not marketable?.

everyone who says “utena was made by men” owes chiho saito 200$ and their first born child.
So apparently Citrus is bad because it reads like it was made “by men for men,” despite being written by a woman (who is likely wlw). Meanwhile, Revolutionary Girl Utena is revered as one of the best yuri works of all time, despite being written and directed by two men 🧐
