Question : am I the only one to think that talking of "yaoi" as a subgenre of "slash" is horribly ethnocentrist in that it considers the Western brand of homoerotic fandom as the more global, universal genre and considers the Japanese brand as a subset of it regardless of historical developments of either genre ?

PS : I'm not saying that penknife is ethnocentrist since she's only asking the question.
