- Me when people say the dragon knights is fujobait while they’re probably jacking off to underage draph tits and totally okay with oversexualization of young girls [image of the cover of Barack Obama's The Audacity of Hope with the title altered to The Audacity of This Bitch]

- I won’t deny that East Asian media does sometimes include “fujobait”, but, considering the current cultural climate (a good chunk of Asia is still socially conservative), most works have to use subtext when it comes to depicting same-gender relationships.
- 2020, Cristal Marie, quoted in Sandy Enriquez & Andrew Lippert, "Fandom and Sexuality in the Archives: Collecting Slash Fan Fiction and Yaoi/Boys’ Love Manga", Journal of the Fantastic in the Arts, Volume 31, Issue 2, Spring 2020:
- As fujobait, or fan service for fujoshi, becomes a trend in mainstream anime it can sometimes blur the line with queerbaiting. It can easily slip into fetishizing the LGBTQ+ community. Many feel that BL itself is a kind of queerbaiting, although many feel that BL is also about female sexual empowerment and catering to the female gaze, which almost always complicates the issue. Especially, if you’re like me, you’re both a fujoshi and an ally.

- Ngl ppl who say that Free! is "oversexualized fujobait" have not only never watched it but also succumbed to internalized misogyny. Their deeply seated belief that "pandering to women is bad actually" is very transparent and especially sad to see FROM OTHER WOMEN.
