Exactly, otome games are meant for straight women, yet devs are adding a female lis and it's still not appreciated. I've never saw a female lis in bl games, or a male lis in yuri. Besides, fmc games that are not otome have more female lis then games made for straight men have a male lis. Besides, fujoshi is always criticized but himedanshi? Never.
Actually, I don't really mind the addition of Female Love Interest in an Otome game (even though it's meant for straight women); I remember reading it's because the developer wants to increase their game's popularity by having both Otome & Yuri genre (to attract people with respective interest = more people). So for me, I'll just go for her route if I'm interested in her; if not, just ignore.
It's also ok for me that the developer added a BL in an Otome game (because I accept BL & GL too, though maybe not to the liking of straight women, especially if they are homophobic), but I 100% cannot accept the inclusion of female mc to them to MMF! I don't have NTR fetish, and as a true Fujoshi, we are supposed to ship them, not NTR them; I would like to MFM with two straight male love interests as Otome, TQ. I have played a very great Chinese Otome game before that female mc had a male teacher with his boyfriend (which I don't even know the existence of BL at that time); later I completely shipped them, such great pair!
I do understand why Fujoshi is criticized tho, as I have met quite many fake ones, that bother real life straight men / gays, even spread their privacy etc. (I'm just mind-blowned); a true Fujoshi knows the difference between Fiction and Real Life, and we are supposed to ship them quietly by ourselves, not creating any trouble for them.
Although, it's just so common for homophobics to accuse stuff like:
all BL = Feminine Men (guess they don't know the existence of other artstyles, even Bara, huh),
or how Hentai BL is (by taking example of an extreme hardcore Yaoi game - like Hetero porn is fine but Homo can't have porn, huh; I don't like hardcore, so I ignore them, so why complain hardcore when you choose hardcore? guess they don't know what is softcore; some of my Fujoshi friends can't even really accept / enjoy gay sex, and they only admire pure love between males),
or Fujoshi accept her boyfriend cheat on her with another male (like, seriously?? no matter hetero / homo, betray is betray, unless she enjoys real life NTR, okay?), etc. etc. etc., so yeah, just o(╯□╰)o~
