My older sister's bi and she doesn't mind shounen-ai, but she doesn't really look at it. I try to keep her from seeing my shounen-ai and yaoi collection though because she'll start commenting on it loudly because she's stupid and seems to want dad to know about it. >.>;

When Brokeback came out, mom was the one that asked me to see it with her, and she cried at the end, so she'd be fine with shounen-ai. n.n But yaoi, if she ever asks what that means, I'm going to tell her it's an anime. I don't think she'd be too happy about her 14-year-old daughter looking at that. xD

When we rented Brokeback because mom suggested watching it again, dad sat down to watch a few minutes of it, and he said, "That's disgusting. I don't know why any one would want to watch that." and disappeared upstairs. So.. he doesn't even get to know about shounen-ai. n.n;

my dad doesn't know but my stepmom and my sister know that i like yaoi. infact my stepmom doesn't even care that i read it seeing as how she comes with me most of the time when im buying the stuff... though my preference isn't loveless or gravitation.. i never got hooked on those... i like Sukisho though i watch loveless once in a while....

but im not in, in anyway, telling my dad or my brother that i like yaoi! one, my brother would tease me constantly about how i like yaoi. and two my dad would freak out about how i like yaoi and he would probably stop giving me allowance.

They don't know.
They won't understand it.

Mom might have an idea that I like Boy/Boy love, but Dad has no clue. Hopefully it will stay that way.

What would happen if I told my mum:

'mum, I like yaoi'
'huh? what's that'
Goes to compy to show her
'this is yaoi'
'OMG! my baby boy is gay!'
'No mum, I'm not gay, I just enjoy reading/ watchingthsi kind of stuff'
'Its the same thing!'
'No, mum it's not.. I still like girls. Give me a girl and I'll show you by having sex with her.'
'Kyle! you pervert don't say things like that, it's rude!'

and so on....
So, no I won't be going into this discussion.

I still believe that my mom and dad are pretty old-fashioned but I kept it a secret for at least a year, up until recently. and then I talked about it with my best friend (EVER!! ^_^) and she was into BL too and I didn't feel so alone and I know one of my other friends(she doesn't go to the same school but we keep in touch every once in a while and she and a bunch of other friends[mine and hers] stayed in the same hotel room at AX and they were one person short so I got to stay with them mrgreen )totally LOVES yaoi (like me and my best friend not [SUPER]hardcore, even yaoi is technically BL/shounen-ai with graphic sex) shounen-ai and BL in general. the two(actually three if you include my best friend although not on a level quite the same as me and my other friend) of us LOVE GRAVITATION! Her profile has the Gravitation background from tektek.org actually. I wanted to use it too but some of my friends are against yaoi, BL, etc. and I wanted to be courteous to them so I didn't use it. I'm just glad that there is, in fact, that background on tektek that I can use if I decide to ^_^

Anyway, recently [as in the past six-nine months or so] I had my sister and her boyfriend watch the first episode of Gravitation. she was all scream stressed evil about it and even told my dad (not in a tattle-tale way though. they were arguing I think and I was bugging her to come watch it and after she did she went back out of the garage where we watched it on youtube.com [though it isn't there anymore crying crying crying ] and she told him and he was all *gasp* eek eek eek because Shuichi and Yuki kiss at the end of the 1st episode whee ) but her boyfriend was cool with it. he doesn't encourage it but he's not prejudice rolleyes thank goodness for that. He's like an older brother and he's pretty laid back but really cool cool he even got me a birthday present when I still barely knew him cool

Honestly, I'm--in part--glad that my parents have failing eyesight. Especially, with all the fanfictions I read whee (lately, they've been the rated M ones on fanfiction.net but not all of them. Actually, I like the fluffy ones better heart ) and usually my parents stay away from the garage especially when I'm in there. One of the benefits of being in the garage all the time in being amune to the smell of my cat's litter xp gross, I know. but my parents aren't used to it so....all the better for me mrgreen

Nobody I know or even in my family knows what Shounen Ai and Yaoi is. I'm the only one that knows.

I think ever since I started writing it, my parents just sort of gave up. xD Plus, my mum's in opera. You can't be in opera and be homophobic. You just can't.

...they don't know how much graphic stuff I look at, but that's not all that important. *coughHACKwheeze*

They don't even know what yaoi is. And considering my mother can barely get the skybox working, maybe it is better I don't explain it to her. No one around here would get it. They barely understand anime. sweatdrop

I'm pretty sure my parents don't know of it's existence. If they find out, my mother's reaction will be a sort of nervous laugh and an oooooookaaaaayyy..... and my dad will just be speechless. I think my brother MIGHT suspect me of being a closet fangirl, but he's never called me on it before. XD

My bro knows and his best friend. I'm not sure how they find out, but they did. They made some jokes about me liking it and stuff, nothing mean or hateful. Then I think my mom might know, not sure, but if she does she cool with it. My dad I think would not let me on the computer ever again. I'm not sure if that's what my dad would. He's different and stuff. I'm just not sure. Anywayz that's what would happen.

P.S. My bro is older and he lets me tell him the new couples and stuff like that. He's not gay though, just laid-back. XD It's pretty cool.

My Dad knows I like shounen ai and yaoi but he just calls it "gay guy stuff". He even flipped through one of my Gravitation volumes. He didn't complain about Shuichi and Eiri together. He complained about all the cussing. xd

He even goes with me to buy all of my manga so he really doesn't seem to care. He even knows I write shounen ai stories. There was one time he noticed me writing a profile on my story characters and asked, "Are you gonna make him gay too?" I just laughed and nodded.

Now telling my Mom about it...I won't be telling her any time soon....

My dad knows nothing.

My brother could personally care less.

As far as I kow, no one in my family even knows what yaoi and shounen-ai is, and I plan to keep it that way.

My mom is completely agenst gay everything. crying It suck because I'm Bi, and I can't even tell her. If she caught me reading yaoi/shounen-ai I'd be in BIG trouble. She thinks it's disgusting (gay people) and she calls it a sickness. She doesn't know i'm bi, but it kinda hurts when she says it's a disease, cuz I feel like she's talking about me.

I have to be REALLY carefull though. I can't read or look at shounen-ai when she's around because she'll get all up in my business wanting to know what i'm looking at, and she flips through all the manga I want before buying it, so I can't buy manga to read later either. I hate it!!! gonk

It doesn't really bother my brother too much, but the only thing shounen-ai that he's ever seen if a few episodes of Gravitation. I wonder how he'd react if I told him I was bi...? I don't know.

As for my dad... I hate the b*****d and I don't care much what he thinks, but I have to make sure I hide everything from him too, cuz he'd tell my mom about it. They're divorced, and he like.... hates us all. So yeah. sweatdrop
