i wish people stop referring doujinshi as those porn things
it's so fucking harmful to doujin creators like musicians, writers, and artists who don't ... work in nsfw content
they should be understood as hobbyist or indie circles :-(

you know what's considered doujin? the touhou series and the many fanworks inspired by it
but people constantly refer to their eromanga as "touhou doujinshi" and it's ridiculous to see this still in common parlance
it's genuinely one of the worst things in western fandoms

i know i've complained about this many times and this must be deja vu but i can't stop stressing how harmful the common usage in the english fandom is
to me, this is like hearing "indie/alternative media" are just porn forever in a different language

there are Many People who now hold influential positions and they should know better but they keep perpetuating really ridiculous caricatures of what doujin media is
the doujin media i know is random cooking guides for bachelors in melonbooks, not horny tentacle shit

yes, there's ero doujinshi based on both derivative and original content and they can exist freely as it is
but the diversity of doujin media is huge and goes beyond just content based on anime
look at COMITIA which houses original doujinshi content, practically an indie con

the doujin world doesn't stop at eromanga
you can go to pixiv booth right now and read TRPG scenario replays published by doujin circles

any niche you can think of has a subculture in the doujin world

there's so many fascinating things within the doujin world and a lot of it is unfortunately translated
so i can totally understand people being misinformed by it
but when i hear people who should be in the know caricaturing doujinshi as Porn, it just makes me sick

and i know people are going to tweet about how porn's okay and we should be cool with adult content
but the issue is that everything doujin-related is considered "adult content", not that adult content needs to be accepted which is another issue altogether
