Boy Band

A boy band is a vocal group consisting of young male singers, usually in their teens or twenties at the time the group is formed. Most boy band members do not play musical instruments, and many boy bands are assembled by the record labels rather than forming on their own. Most boy bands dance as well as sing, and their concerts involve highly choreographed performances.Wikipedia:Boy band, accessed 8 March 2014.
Boybands are often denigrated for their main fanbase, pre-teen and teenage girls. They have also inspired creative fanworks and organized fan activity among fans of all ages.
Boybands are also sometimes used as an AU trope in fanworks for non-boyband fandoms. See the AO3 tag.

Boy Band Slash

On its face, Boy Band Slash aka BBS is slash fanfic written about a boy band, any boy band. However, the term was more commonly used in the early 2000s to describe what became known as Popslash, an umbrella fandom that included the two most popular American boy bands at the time (NSYNC and Backstreet Boys) and associated acts. For example, see the boy band slash page at Citizens Against Bad Slash. To be fair, the terms were not exact equivalents as Popslash included acts that weren't boybands, and "boy band slash" technically included any boyband active at that point, just that NSYNC and BSB were the ones everyone was interested in.
The Fanfiction Glossary (2002) entry for BBS:www.subreality.com/glossary/terms.htm (Wayback Machine 2002 copy)
The term appears to be less common in online fandom in the 2010s. On the AO3, which entered open beta in late 2009, there are no tags for boyband slash, and usage of "bbs" is slang for "babies". The only reference to "boyband slash" is in a Beatles story backdated to 2003.Boyband by jmtorres Similarly, on Tumblr there are very few uses of "boyband slash", and apart from the account name boyband-slash-fanfictions, most are references to the late 90s/early 00s fandom. Japanese and Korean boybands have their own terms (Jpop and Kpop respectively), and more recent English-speaking boybands with major fanfic activity appear to have little crossover interest with other boybands--for example, One Direction and Jonas Brothers are each associated with non-boyband musical acts and television and/or radio fandoms.

Boy Banders Are Hiding A Secret

Boy Banders Are Hiding A Secret is a 2012 post on Blind Gossip, a blog that published "blind items" about celebrities. This post, widely interpreted as referring to One Direction, is alleged to have converted many fans into believing that bandmembers Harry Styles and Louis Tomlinson (pairing name: Larry) were secretly dating in real life"That blind made thousands of people into larries and 1D fans." , 10 November 2024. As of 9 February 2025, this tumblr post has 5 notes."Okay, this Boy Banders Are Hiding A Secret article from blind gossip was literally one of the things that convinced me of larry all those months ago so..." , 8 February 2013. As of 9 February 2025, this tumblr post has 99 notes.. This post and the blog that published it were frequently discussed among Larries.
A Tumblr fan compiled a masterpost of 36 Blind Gossip items believed to be Larry-related and listed "Boy Banders Are Hiding A Secret" as the first entry, adding,
In addition to discussing the post, Larries made fanworks in response. One fan video was featured on Blind Gossip itself., blindgossip.com, 24 April 2013. As of 2025, the original video is no longer online, but it seems to have had enough enduring popularity to be reuploaded to Bilibili in 2018., 2018-02-03.
Later, many Larries became skeptical of Blind Gossip, and at least one person argued that Blind Gossip was simply feeding Larries' own speculation on public social media sites back to them. See Circular Reporting and Blind Items.

Boy Meets Boy

Boy Meets Boy is a comedy-romance comic by K. Sandra Fuhr about a gay couple and their friends and family.
== Fandom ==
A Boy Meets Boy Fan Club Yahoo group was created in April 2001 and was active through the end of the comic.

The now-defunct Boy Meets Boy Fanfiction Archive collected about 50 stories, while the also defunct whEE i'M naKEd, a fan site run by Avarice, included a non-submission archive of about 80 stories including non-canonical and supplementary stories by Sandra Fuhr herself. Several other now-defunct fansites also existed. Fans looking for fanfic were also sometimes directed to the Slash Page Database Project.
The most popular pairings were Mikhael/Harley and Cyanide/Skids.
== Terminology ==
Boy Meets Boy fandom used the slang term "shibby" a lot (meaning nifty or awesome).

Boy Meets World

Boy Meets World is an American TV series which originally aired in the TGIFhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TGIF_%28ABC%29 block of evening programming, about a hapless junior high school student named Cory Matthews in Philadelphia, PA. The show aired for seven seasons on ABC, following Cory and his friends and family, from high school to college.
Though mainly a comedy, Boy Meets World often dealt with social issues, and several episodes revolved around Shawn Hunter's dysfunctional homelife. There were also episodes parodying horror movie tropes and time travel. 
The series sequel, Girl Meets World focuses on Cory and Topanga's daughter, Riley.
==Characters==
While the show stayed tightly focused on its main character, Cory Matthews, it also developed storylines for a variety of his friends, family, and teachers. These included Cory's father and mother (Alan and Amy), his younger sister Morgan, and older brother Eric. Cory's best friend Shawn Hunter, his girlfriend (and eventual wife) Topanga Lawrence, and Shawn's girlfriend Angela Moore were also series regulars. George Feeney, at first a public school teacher (sixth grade), also stayed on the show, eventually teaching at Cory's college. Shawn's brother, Jack, was later added to the show, and is most often paired with Eric Matthews.
==Fandom==
The fanfiction for the show is mostly found on Fanfiction.net. It features het canon couples such as Cory/Topanga and Shawn/Angela, as well as slash between Cory/Shawn and Eric/Jack. Growing in popularity is the poly ship Cory/Shawn/Topanga.
Shawn was one of the most popular characters on the show during its run, despite Cory developing a huge fanbase from season 2 onward. Today, many fans find Shawn to be the more relatable and likeable character due to how he suffered compared to Cory, who grew up in a comfortable middle-class home. Cory has even garnered some hatred from fans who, upon rewatching the show, found his less than savory moments in later seasons to be toxic and unforgiveable. https://www.tumblr.com/tagged/anti%20cory%20matthews?sort=top

Boypussy

Boypussy is a term popularized by BTS and Glee fandom for AU fanfic in which a male character has a vagina. This trope is not the same as genderswap, always-a-girl, and transfic in that the b!p character may be presented as a cisgender man who happens to have a vagina. The boypussy trope appears almost exclusively in M/M works.
In non-fandom queer slang, boypussy (also known as "bussy") is a term that refers to either a cisgender man's anus or a transgender man's vagina. 
Due to its usage in queer slang and the widely varying intentions of individual authors, whether a fanwork utilizing the term "boypussy" means to present their vagina-having male character as cisgender or transgender and/or intersex can only be determined on a case-by-case basis. This is further complicated by its prevalence in tropes that explore sex characteristics without real-life analogues, such as Non-Traditional Omegaverse fanfiction that takes place in a world where all Omegas have vaginas.
Some fans are critical of this trope and see it as sexist, transphobic, and/or derogatorily fetishistic.
However, some fans such as Twitter user @yooniefucks, hold the position that the boypussy trope is "really not analogous to trans experiences":
Further still, many transmasculine and/or intersex people do enjoy and find comfort in the trope. On Youtuber Rowan Ellis' video essay The Rise (And Rise) of Omegaverse, Youtuber bikenesmith comments:
