I'm beginning to wonder, do people even research their own hobbies?

Yaoi is not, I repeat, is not gay porn meant for men. Yaoi is a women's genre. I now direct you to some required reading for anyone who claims to be a yaoi or shounen ai fan.

Yaoi is not, I repeat, is not gay porn meant for men. Yaoi is a women's genre.

I should probably mention here that I'm not against boys liking yaoi. I'm just appalled by people's lack of knowledge on something they claim to be obsessed with and love.

Yaoi is not simply gay porn, it is a wide and varied genre ranging from the hard core to the very soft and fluffy. It is a genre that is mostly created by women, for women, but really, everyone can enjoy it. Saying that boys can't like yaoi because it's a shoujo genre is like telling girls that they can't watch shounen anime like FMA and GW! Most girls discovered yaoi through shounen fan works, we would be lost without it!

Girls are free to love and obsess over shounen just as boys are free to love and obsess over yaoi. I just wish that people would actually take the time to learn about what they claim they love so much before they run around spouting common misconceptions and other such false information. After all, this is a yaoi and shounen ai guild, don�t you think you should at least be familiar with the terms and the origins of the genre? It only makes sense.

Are you afraid of the dark?
It's generally how some people think since some guys I know (like my brother) hates males naked and goes for the type of sex that has only girls so I'm guessing it works the same for some girls sweatdrop

I agree.

So you agree I am sub-human then, too?
It is not human nature or all of or a vast majority of humans would like it, which is not true....
I can get percentage numbers if you like....

Women often have a better time relating with the uke('female') of the relationship rather than an actual woman, who they see as a rival rather than as someone to relate to.

That said, yaoi is an idealized depiction of a male/male relationship, which can turn off some(but not all) gay men to the genre. ^^  

[ondria]

we are just more open about it..thats all..  

[For-Chan Cookie]

Yaoi is traditionally a genre for women, by women.

Women like men. Women like romance. Women go wild for two beautiful men in romantic relationships. Add sex and it's a bonus. Yaoi is for women, by women. If men end up enjoying it, that's ok too, but they are not the target audience, we girls are.  

[Innuendos In Tea]

i think thats why most if not all yaoi artists are women sweatdrop
