What's in a Name? MLM Romance vs. BL vs. Yaoi & Shonen Ai

Join hosts Author Carola and AichiYume in a fun jaunt to The Yaoi Shelf: an exploration of yaoi, shonen ai, and boy's love while discussing tropes, media criticism and more along the way. Grab a seat and get comfy, welcome to The Yaoi Shelf. In this episode of The Yaoi Shelf, hosts Amanda and Carola discuss naming conventions in the boy's love and queer media space, talk about how these naming conventions have changed and answer whether this all does or does not fetishize gay men.
