Yaoi. Odd for liking it? Yes or no?

[GardeniaSky]

We're just discussing it...I'm not posting any links or asking anyone to tell me how to get to it. If this thread is against tos then delete it. I often forget myself. =_=; Anyway.

Yaoi. Am I odd for being a fan of it? I read it when I'm bored. It's like any other manga for me, just with smut. It's like a romance novel. :p

look at it this way; if it was abnormal to like it why would there be so much of it?

Good point haha. I just know anyone that's not an anime geek would freak the ******** out at how graphic some of this stuff is.

[Rayne Katamare]

any suggestions?

Well, there is lot's of romantic vampire fiction out right now, lots of no-talent pop stars, and of course lots and lots of eroge/hentai, so as you see just because something has a broad selection has absolutely nothing to do with it's validity or quality.

Omg I read some really good ones...kinda graphic...if you go to mangaox.com and just do the advanced search for yaoi you'll find a ton.

17 Sai no Hisoka na Yokujou is a good one. :3

and yet if there weren't enough people who wanted that kind of stuff then they wouldn't keep shoveling it out. popularity doesn't necessarily have anything to do with validity or quality.

[Nursery Myth]

Of course not.
Why would they produce so much of it is it was?

The way I read it depends on my mood.

[Takako Tamiko]

There's no reason to feel odd for liking Yaoi. It's a genre that appeals to a lot of people and, if it's written very well, can really be something beautiful and introspective to read if it has a thought-out plot and likable characters.

Seriously one of my favorite pairings =w=

[Robotic Chibi-tan]

I don't find that odd... But then again I think people who play D&D are awesome... I must say, I adore shounenai when it's really really sweet.

No, there is nothing wrong with liking illustrated gay porn.
