Mineta
So I hear that it's canon that Mineta is Bi, but then there is the rare occasion that I see someone putting something abt him being homophobic. So is he like Bi & ashamed and acts possibly homophobic because of that or like I'm confused HELP

Warning: mentions of disordered eating...
Aizawa x Student!Reader (Platonic)- Only Rice?
You werent really eating. At least not as far as Aizawa could tell. He'd had his eye on you for a while now, first noticing your rather strange behaviour during lunch break when you sat on your own and didnt eat anything except for plain rice.
He found it peculiar that you would eat so little during your break, and it didn't help when all you wore were baggy clothes. He couldn't help but find it suspicious, but he hadnt said anything until one day you didnt eat altogether, worrying him greatly.
All you ever ate was plain white rice, and he never saw you eat anything else, and the way that your baggy clothes dwarfed your short, thin form made you seem much smaller than everyone else. His eyebrows furrowed in worry as he wandered away to see Present Mic and All Might, wondering what they would have to say about his suspicions.
Meanwhile, you sit at a table in the corner of the lunch room playing subway surfers on your phone, completely oblivious to the way aizawa is worrying over you. You had stupidly left your lunch at the dorms on the kitchen side and you couldnt muffle your mournful sigh, having really been craving rice for the past month.
It's another silly food obsession that will be replaced with something else any time now, you're sure, since you often go through phazes of craving your favourite food, only to then get bored of it and become obsessed with something else instead. This time, it was white rice. Boring, but so fluffy and sweet that you could literally cry if you tasted it again.
But alas, it sits on the counter a few buildings away because of your forgetfulness, and you just can't be bothered to go and get it. Curse your scatterbrain.
Once lunch finishes and the lesson after it ends you breath a sigh of relief, puffing out your cheeks like a hamster and readying yourself to leave when suddenly you hear Aizawa call your name with a troubled look on his face.
Oh oh. Aizawa Sensei never looks troubled. This spells bad luck. You fidget with the sleeves of your oversized school shirt, about to start rambling out random apologies for minor offenses like not replacing the toilet roll and using the last of the butter in the dormitory fridge until he clears his throat, waiting for the last of the stragglers in the class to leave.
"(-), I'm... worried about you. Answer me truthfully. I will know if you're lying. As your teachwr, I'm here for you and you can confide in me for any of your problems. I want to help you, but to do that, i need to know what's wrong..."
He pauses, his tone sounding heavy and full of genuine concern, which is rare even in worse circumstances.
"When was the last time you ate something?"
Your breath hitches and you blink in confusion, having not expected that question at all and doing a bit of a double take as he stares down into your soul.
You respond with a visibly confused expression, making Aizawa wonder what might be going through your head. Maybe you don't realise there's something a little concerning about your eating habits?
"Uh-... t-this morning? Why? Whats wrong? Have i been poisoned?!..."
Aizawa sweat-drops a little at your forwardness, though he is at least a little glad that you've apparently eaten this morning.
"Calm down, no, you haven't been poisoned. But- why didnt you eat at lunch? I only ever see you eat the bare minimum. And, frankly... I think you're suffering because of it. You seem very-... thin- lately..."
He hesitates to comment on your appearance, but he is genuinely very worried about you, since he came to the conclusion that you have some kind of eating disorder, and he know all about how dangerous the effects of these disorders can be.
You stare up at him in shock, your eyes widening as you finally realise what's going on, relief flooding your face.
"Wha-?... OH-! Ohhhh-... that makes sense now- listen, i know it looks weird, but please believe me, Sensei, when i say that i'm actually doing very fine. I just left my lunch in the kitchen this morning on accidwnt and uh-... might've been a little too lazy to go and get it..."
The conversation continues a lot like this, with Aizawa giving you a suspicious stare as you defend tour strange behavious, only now realising just how strange they are now that you're being called out. Oops.
Eventually you compromise with your poor, worried Sensei, offering to go and get your lunch now and eat it in front of him, and you both settle on that, the old man feeling a little better and more assured that you're not suffering all alone.
By the time you actually do manage to finish your food Aizawa Sensei is quite a bit more assured of your wellbeing, while you convince him that you're actually quite normal in size since you've always been kind of small. Though the conversation diverts to the clothes that shroud your form, and just maybe you let slip to Aizawa the fact that you only wear loose clothes because Mineta makes you feel really uncomfortable. But you only tell him that because he gives off very safe, parental energy, and you feel comfortable talking about it with him.
And just maybe he is silently fuming when you mention that it's not just you who feels genuinely unsettled by his presence, but it is in fact all of the girls in 1-A that feel this way.
Nobody knows where Mineta Minoru is the next morning, and nobody really wants to ask. And when the school cafeterias added plain white rice as a dish to be served on its own, along with a few other class favourites, noone thinks anything of it. But you do. And when your smile is a little brighter the next time your eyes meet your Sensei's, he feels acomplished as a teacher.

My Hero Ultra Impact 2: Mineta Boogaloo
Tokoyami's interactions with other students (all scenarios)
[My Hero One's Justice 2 - Arcade Mode]
Part [1], [2], [3] - [General Overview]
Salvaging trash: A role model for Minoru?
I theorized whether Mineta would benefit from having a positive male role model. Someone whom he respects enough, to learn from how to respect other humans.
Obviously girls' and women's reactions to his actions should be more than enough for Mineta to rethink his behaviour.
But just like in real life, unfortunately that's often not the case.
...
To preface:
Pervy loser as a trope is not funny to me at all, but as long as its clear that this behaviour is specifically the reason, why heās a loser, and as long as other characters step in to keep the character from doing worse, I'm "ok" with it.
As in, I dislike it, but Iām feeling mostly detached from Minetaās portrayal. Iāll just fast forward those scenes, if they annoy me too much.
Personally, Iām not one for the whole āexpel Mineta, and substitute him with Shinsoā (especially, since I donāt find Shinso very likable or interesting himself): I would have appreciated Mineta going through a small arc of self-directed character development regarding his view of girls. Instead Horikoshiās shortcutted that, by having Mineta being forced into A Orange Clockwork-experience.
That wasn't to be - slightly disappointing but not surprising.
What Iām NOT okay with, is the framing of āboys will be boysā:
I fucking hate that Horikoshi had Mandalay remarking on Minetaās inappropriate behaviour at the camp with smt like ~unsurprising, with a class full of teenage boys. ~
No. Just no.
That kind of behaviour should feel surprising, and not be treated as normal.
And it actually wasn't.
...well, it wasn't treated as normal by the kids:
Were most of the boys curious about the other side of the onsen? Likely.
But not a single one of them encouraged or participated in Minetaās peeping attempt. In fact, many different guys in 1-A have verbalized their displeasure with Minetaās ācomedicā perverseness in different instances. Some more, some less, but more than one of them did.
"Boys will be boys"- way of thinking, really needs to die. Die! DIE!!!
It feels especially insulting since a male author has a female AND grown character reinforce this perspective.
Preface end.
Mineta has shown a caring side:
Expressed his deep affection for Deku during Class 1-A v. Deku;
Cried tears of happiness, when Bakugou finally woke up in the hospital after the PLW and tried his best to prevent the latter from getting out of bed and hurting himself in the process;
Felt very remorseful about some of his previous comments, after Shouji confides his own experiences with discrimination to the class, and expressed that remorse directly to the person whom he wronged;
Provokes AFO to divert his attention from Tokoyami, and then offers up his own quirk... all in hope that Dark Shadow wouldnāt get taken away from Tokoyami.
What do the recipient of Mineta's care have in common?
They're male.
My brain: If one cares about a person/group, one would be more inclined to listen to them than if they didn't care about that person/group. However...
Out of the 1-A guys, Iida might have been probably the most vocal about his disapproval of Mineta's inappropriate behaviour towards girls, and has tried to lecture Mineta into being a better person on multiple occasions.
Other characters that I remember as having interferred more intensely are Kirishima and Sero.
But none of them were successful in discouraging Mineta from harassing others in the longterm.
It's not a matter of general respect either.
Shouji and Deku, two of the guys Mineta does respect, and cares about, have told the latter to knock it off, to no avail. Admittedly, their attempts (especially Deku's) were more mild-mannered, compared to e.g. Iida.
My second theory is, that while Mineta cares about Deku and Shouji in general, he might not put much stock into their opinion about how to treat girls.
My third theory is, that those interferences were in fact, probably not intense enough for Mineta.
Putting this all together, for a role model to have an effect on Mineta they must
Have his overall respect,
make their disapproval of sexual harassment very clear, sternly, and repeatedly,
and ideally, someone, who is "good with girls".
... so probably no guy from 1-A.
E.g., while Todoroki is considered a bishonen in-universe, he's coasting entirely on his outward appearance here. Characterwise, he's more of an awkward duck. He's also not among those who have ever voiced displeasure at Mineta's antics.
Would Mirio work as a role model on Minetaās hypothetical goal of how to become a better human being?
Honestly, I feel like a direct, but less wordy type than Iida might work.
For example, someone like Kota.
Yes, the no-nonsense kid, who destroyed Mineta with just one sentence, might work...
If only he were an older hero course student.
Another bnha fanart!
I put all my efforts in this and (even though this took four days with the app lagging and the project corrupting two times and completing it with no sleep) Iām proud of this :D !
How normal people spell trash: T-R-A-S-H
How MHA fans spell trash: M-I-N-E-T-A
