user4484: Why is this
What is the equivalent of "seme" and "uke" in yuri culture?
really on-topic here and not that this should be migrated to japanese stackexchange? Just because of the genres yaoi and yuri? Not saying it should be migrated. Just wondering.

user63: Topics about the subculture of anime and manga are on-topic. In this case the terms, along with "Riba" are generally on-topic, with some exceptions (such as requests, and recommendations, content that may be overly explicit).
While they are terms prevalent in the gay community in Japan, it is a generally accepted fact among the (anime and manga) subculture that the terms originate from BL genre industry and especially the male/male doujinshi community in Japan.
