Do you like Yaoi? (Not a pedo thread)

[Macgyvercas]

Erm...can we watch Yuri instead?

Spoiler: Yes we can!

Aww, man. That's not what I had in mind. I was kinda hoping for a situation where Holo and Nora...

I'd better stop there...

Holo and Nora?!

DO go on...

[small]Yuri commands it![/small]

 

[Alluos]

Nope, not because it's man on man action (or man-that-looks-a-lot-like-girl on etc.) but because;
a) it is mostly in baaaaadly written fanfiction.
b) it appeals greatly to the "bishie-lover" demographic.

Well, I would, but...I'm fairly certain the powers that be would not appriciate it being stated here (I'm don't know for sure though).

Let's just say that there is a large haystack and a barn involved.

 

[Ohhi]

to tell you the truth I have read and seen some ok yaoi but to me it is not what I like it's not my preference if other people like it thats fine I have no problem with it.

Note: Why did you have to point out that Yaoi isn't pedo? I could see if you were discussing lolicon, but anyone who knows what yaoi is (or even just read the first post) would know it has nothing to do with it. Sure, you're not incorrect; but it's the title equivalent of saying 8x + 9 + 0. It's somewhat unnecessary.

I think you mean discussing Shotacon, the male equivalent of Lolicon.

Other than that, spot on.

Also, I am confused by 'Not a pedo thread'...

OP probably just wanted to avoid the issue the 4 or so actual Pedo threads brought. Though, it didn't even need mention because Yaoi =/= Pedo.

It's like saying "do you like porn(not a Pedo thread)". Considering what that would imply, it's obvious the two things have nothing to do with each other. :/

Like said above there have been too many pedo threads lately. Also it maybe due to even non-loli anime stuff with teenaged girls getting the pedo lable. I assume some yaoi charactors are teen aged, so would get the same treatment. Or is yaoi excempt from the 'anime /managa lovers are closet pedo's' stupid lable becuase it only involves boy's instead of girls?

Anyway as to the orginal queation. Being a straight guy it is not my first choice, but if done well I would not turn it off. If it is done that same way as hetro relasionships are done in most managa, where the romantic couple never seem to express there romance physically, with even kisses being rare, then I could sit through it. Even fan service stuff like Naruto and Saskie accidentally kissing is not a problem as it made me laugh a lot.

Yaoi has nothing to do with paedophilia, it's just gay hentai.

Well, soon, there will be an end to them once and for all. :/

That reminds me, I'm going to go in that corner over there...

[sub]And die. No more discussion of this. [/sub]

I'm thinking perfectly wholesome thoughts as well...

No I'm not into Yaoi, but I am neutral on traps...

 

[ph0b0s123]

Yaoi has nothing to do with paedophilia, it's just gay hentai.

Same could be said for normal hentai, but it still gets tared with that brush.

 

[Daniel Cygnus]

In short, yes. Me and my boyfriend just started watching it, and we're both kind of addicted now. ^_^

 

[Numb1lp]

I can't really say I do. It's just a little too wierd.

 

[TheYellowCellPhone]

Rule of me, myself and I:

Regular romance (Boy + Girl): Eh.

Yuri (Girl + Girl): FUCKING SWEET! Until the girls grow dicks (fuck man, so many yuri stories do that, it's saddening)

Yaoi (Boy + Boy): Ew. DO NOT WANT.

 

[loc978]

Honestly, I really don't have much interest in romance stories even when I find both protagonists attractive (read: lesbian porn)... so all I have to say about yaoi is

"Yamete! Oshiri ga Itai!"

 

[CrazyGirl17]

Now, I'm not homophobic or anything (really, don't get the wrong idea), but Yaoi doesn't interest me... the only exception I've found (so far) is the Chibitalia/Holy Roman Empire pairing from Axis Powers Hetalia. I mean, just look at this pair!

And don't be fooled, that is a male in the dress... it's complicated. Also if a certain rumor is true, then in that case I also support the North Italy/Germany pairing...

 

[AstylahAthrys]

In fanfiction terms, I have an astounding NOOOOOOOO to say to it. I could give a gigantic rant generated at Yu-Gi-Oh Yaoi fans for ruining any fun the fandom had for me (until we actually got a hetero cannon pair and the Abridged series came along.)

If it's cannon or whatever then sure. It's cool.

 

[Artina89]

I am indifferent to it, as I can avoid it, which I do. If other people like it, more power to them, but I can't say that its my cup of tea. I did find that video funny though.

 

[Mnemophage]

Not particularly. I don't have the parts involved in it, so it's difficult for me to put myself in the mind of the characters - and in both fiction and smut, that's where the attraction lies for me.
