     to me what makes something yurislop instead of just yuri is when it portrays sapphic desire in simplistic and idealistic terms, either as superficially desexualized or sexualized, without any hint of the reality that sapphic desire is often defined more by being in a state of tension than by the realization of some teleological end. I think this genre of post is so popular mostly because of how many transfems there are who have little to no experience with being in lesbian relationships, or at least not of any substance (i.e. not a Discord server polycule where you just play League of Legends together for 12 hours a day). which is not their fault of course, and yurislop provides some sort of space for these things to be expressed, but it also has a sort of infantilizing quality to it
     
     the trvth is that if you want to kiss girls you must be prepared to go through the most hellishly stupid tranny drama imaginable that will leave you an emotional wreck for years and that you will never fully recover from, where things are rarely ever resolved amicably and where you are left with a history of being so intensively entangled with other girls that you wouldn't even know *how* to express it to anyone without getting really good at writing poetry
