Nutzen und Gratifikation bei Boys’ Love Manga – Fujoshi oder verdorbene Mädchen in Japan und Deutschland

Präsentation bei dem Workshop „Glocal Polemics of ‘Boys Love’ [BL]: Production, Circulation, Censorship“ an der Universität Oita, 22.-23. Januar 2011.
A presentation of my research on the use of boys‘ love (BL) manga. Based on an interactionist perspective that builds on theories of media gratification, entertainment and emotions, my research focuses on the „how“ of the usage and understands media preferences (including BL) as arising from historical, biographical and situational contexts.
