Have you ever shown yaoi to one of your trusted loved ones?

[The_Radioactive_Woman]

I told my mom, and she just said 'whatever makes you happy,' so no sharing there...

My best friend and I kvetch and discuss yaoi/bl/shounen-ai pairings and such a fair bit, and I also discuss it with friends at school. Other than that, and everyone here in the guild, I don't really share. P:  

[Niko Narshe]

Well when i was reading a BL book at school and my best friend takes it from my hand and says "I wanna read it!" i tell her it wouldn't be something she would like and the next day she hands it back to me and walks away slowly.Funny thing,the next one i got she was eager to read.

My mom knows and doesn't really pay much attention.  

[Collared Assassin]

Well, no the only other person who knows I like Yaoi is my friend Peppermeek sweatdrop
(who i know on here and real life whee )...
I dont think...No. I DEFIANTLY wouldn't tell this to my parents.... stressed
...they would start to judge me before I even had a chance to explain to them why I like it... scream
I think I would be to shy to tell most of my friends redface ...
even though I could care less what they think about my hobbies. stare
My boyfriend maybe sweatdrop ...but not the part about me think about him with some other guy redface ...
I think ill keep that shhh' shh' business 3nodding 4laugh ..

my gay friend, who loved it
my friend who is a girl who rolls her eyes at me
but never my family. they'd freak if they found out i was looking at stuff like that and they'd kill me if they found out i was bi (homophobes)  

[msangelicdemon]

I have Gay friends who have bought me yaoi for my birthday and have actually read them to my mom, im bi and I knew she was cool with it ^^ lol Im just not alloweed to let my 6 year old brother see it. xd

My younger brother once came up to me and peeked at my laptop when I was playing Togainu no Chi. I was at the screwdriver scene in Keisuke's route and my brother was all "WTF?!" Lol.  

[anime_wiccan_chick]

My parents accidentally bought me yaoi.  

[SungJewel]

I've shown a good portion to my friends and they got more into Yuri because of it, some of my other friends know and mention it in front if my parents. I don't think they quite caught on but they have an idea I think.  

[Chex4nothing Muleing4free]

Long story short. Was watching an anime (long ago) where I didn't realize what the characters meant by "partners" (They work together how was I suppose to know?!). Little brother came in to watch with me and well... lucky he thought one of the dudes was a chick.

....buuuutttt....

He later want though some other anime and well... yaaa....
This lead to him demand I separate the anime from 'watchable' and 'un-watchable'. I still found it funny...

Had the 'un-watchable' pile in front of me and was talking to him when he started making this face. I look down to see I was holding Trigun. I quickly put it in the 'watchable' pile and he glared at me. He says it wasn't funny but I thought it was. xp

Some days later my mom came asking about gay men and in a serious conversion I told her how two men have sex. Only when she left did I realized how strange it was.
You know to have a normal sit down about a 'strange conversion to have with a parent'.  

[YuriLovesDairu]

I showed my fiance and it turns out he likes it just as much as I do. When I was first introduced to yaoi, my younger sister would read it with me and she still watches a lot of the newer ones with me. My dad found my yaoi manga stash by accident, was an embarrassing conversation, but other than that all was well.  

[xoAniLuv]

My three best friends know and are cool with it, which I greatly appreciate. My family is conservative, and I often debate with them over gay marriage and whatnot (even though my state has legalized it a while ago). The only person I think I could share it with (maybe one day), is my mother, because she's not nearly as conservative as the rest of my family.  

[Crimson Fallen Angel]

I showed my male best friend it. He doesn't like it but he's fine with it once he gets over the shock.  

[Rigze]

My sister likes to play yaoi VNs with me sometimes. Otherwise no, no one shall know of this unless they bring it up to me first. :v  

[fox in a kitty suit]

Not really. But I did watch all of gravitation with my husband. Does that count?
