Shades of our continuing conversation :| Yes, there are chicks out there writing "yaoi" whose ulterior motives submarine, sophomoric and transparently, just beneath; they tend to use one of the male characters as a female proxy, and they tend to uke him out. They aren't interested in teh awesome and undeniable hawt of male-male carnal relations- they're just too jealous of canon female characters to write het, and just conscious enough to disdain the construct of "Mary Sues".
And we know the archetype. We recognize her from each other. I won't cite individuals, they're as easy to spot as whores in church...or virgins in a brothel, to wax more apropos...
