This doesn't reflect reality at all. I know far more lesbian couples (including myself and my fiancee) who are both feminine than I know couples with a "seme/uke" dynamic, to maintain the otaku metaphors. -
Interesting. I actually found these terms offensive when I heard them. It just implies that there must be someone dominant over the other, which leads to a bunch of patriarchy stuff dead horse. >.>
