Go To

Basic Trope: A character is a fan of lesbian romance.

  • Straight: Bob enjoys reading Yuri manga during his off time, and may have a few pieces of Yuri themed merchandise around
  • Exaggerated: Bob reads nothing but Yuri outside what he needs for work.
  • Downplayed: Bob enjoys Yuri stuff but he has other genres he enjoys more.
  • Justified: Girl on Girl Is Hot
  • Inverted: Heteronormative Crusader Bob loathes Yuri stuff and tries to destroy it whenever he finds it.
  • Gender-Inverted: Alice is a major Yaoi Fangirl.
  • Subverted:
    • Alice finds what looks like a Yuri manga in Bob's house. She looks it over and finds that it's a standard action manga.
    • Bob's interest in the lesbian pairing is a result of finding Girl on Girl Is Hot. He doesn't care about the emotional or romantic aspects of it.
  • Double Subverted:
    • Alice missed the pages detailing the female protagonist's love for another woman.
    • At least, that's what Bob claims to others. He's actually interested in the emotional side of lesbian relationships but keeps it hidden out of fear it makes him seem unmanly.
  • Parodied: Bob's entire life revolves around lesbian romance to the point where it's all he talks about and all the stuff in his home is Yuri-themed.
  • Zig-Zagged: ???
  • Averted: Bob has no strong opinion about Yuri works either way.
  • Enforced: ???
  • Lampshaded: "Ogling the lesbian lovebirds again?" "Yep!"
  • Invoked: Bob's love interest is bisexual, so he tries to impress her by engaging the femslash that she reads.
  • Exploited: Alice needs to get her hands on Bob, so, knowing he's a big Yuri fan, she sets up a Box-and-Stick Trap, baited with popular Yuri Doujinshi to catch him.
  • Defied: "Girl on Girl Is Hot? Man, it's not for me."
  • Discussed: "Here we find the wild Yuri fan in his natural environment. We must be quiet, for they scare easily."
  • Conversed: ???
  • Implied: Bob's interests aren't directly discussed, but he is seen reading a book that has two women on a romantic date on the cover.
  • Deconstructed: The Yuri manga that Bob reads is an Author Tract of Romanticized Abuse, and Bob still finding it's hot.
  • Reconstructed: But Bob can distinguish a real-life rape from the Romanticized Abuse manga, so it isn't problematic.

Maybe you'll find more fun Yuri stuff back at Yuri Fan?
