Quality

This article's quality is terrible, comprised of primarily regurgitating one source from 1997 and full of random notions and OR. It lacks a current scholarly understanding of gender and has a strange focus on a home-brewed "history" of futanari while nearly entirely missing that googling futanari here or on Google books only brings up pornography. It also neglects to clarify the pop Western fetishisation of futanari or to cover the transmisogyny of the genre. In short: a train wreck. Ogress _smash! 22:29, 13 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Six books are cited here, if you wish to expand upon the article to include "Western fetishisation of futanari" feel free to do so. - Knowledgekid87 (talk) 23:56, 13 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Um, I am, and I'm trying to point out the flaws here. A 1997 book about homosexuality in Tokugawa Japan, repeated seven times. A 1965 book in German. These are not about futanari per se. The apparently salient works are a Portuguese-only article, a 2007 book, and "Sex, Love and Women in Japanese Comics" entry in the International Encyclopedia of Sexuality. A book that ranks anime is also relevant. This is hardly sufficient and the article is mixed with tons of OR and highly dated material. Ogress _smash! 02:06, 14 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I think examining the difference between the articles futanari and shemale illustrate the lack of weight and thoroughness at even the most cursory of viewing. Ogress _smash! 02:16, 14 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I don't really know much about the subject here, if you feel the article is a mess I wouldn't oppose a merge to Glossary of anime and manga until more sources can be found. - Knowledgekid87 (talk) 02:18, 14 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
