Yep, I’m a female that love’s Yuri (and yep, I’m a lesbian

) I also love Yaoi.

If men are into yaoi, they are gay.

I actually prefer yuri. And I'm a girl.

just because a man reads yaoi does not mean he is gay

Spadesy · January 18th, 2009, 03:46 PM

I'm not into either, but if I were into one, it'd be yuri.

That seems extremely narrow minded to say such a thing.

But that's also obligatory, that goes with the whole acceptance factor for gay/bi sexual woman.

Well, I'm very proud to hear that you know exactly how human beings work then ^^. Please, enlighten the world with your superior knowledge about how humanity works.

Old Ape Face · February 18th, 2009, 08:33 PM

Me enlighten? Heh humanity is whatever you take it to be. It can be contradictory in itself, or it can be exactly the way you think it is.

I don't really understand the motives behind some of humanities most outrageous movements (War, religion, power, dictatorship), perhaps I'm think way too astronomical.

For those guys here who aren't gay or bi- what exactly is the appeal of yaoi to you? Not judging or anything, just wondering.

I'ts not that I"m gay or bi-sexual. It's just I prefer the art and stories better. I think they're done much better than from what I've read/seen of yaoi.

Except Gravitation. That was actually pretty good.

I think, that when in anime, it is beautiful, and when in a life Muck

Wow, not judgmental or anything, are you.
And, yeah, there are men who enjoy yaoi, why not? Every person likes various things for various reasons...

Well... Let's start at the beginning. What a nonsense statement, but i need to get in the mood to write, it's about 6 AM after all and I'm quite drunk :p

The first "yaoi" i've ever watched was Junjou Romantica, meanwhile i've watched Yami No Matsuei and Okane Ga Nai.
I have to admit that i was rather hesitant in the first place, thinking about "oh can i really watch this without considering myself gay?!"
But now I'm feeling safe enough to say that I'm straight hetero and nevertheless enjoying (some) yaoi.
There are still some restrictions left, i've tried to watch enzai - falsely accused which was really way too graphic and violent, I just couldn't stand it, thus leading to my personal conclusion:

I don't watch yaoi because i am turned on by BL.
I like the way romantic relationships are being displayed in the yaoi i've watched so far. I just find the emotional bonds more deep and desirable than those i've seen in straight romance animes, even if i wish for myself to eventually get to this state with a woman.
(Please leave all this "forced" stuff which is partially included aside)

Does anyone expect or ask for a psychological more funded explanation for this?

Well, perhaps I can post something more productive then, but this could take me some time, exploring my inner self etc.
