I love yaoi loads more but i dont have a problem with yuri at all. I think the pairing of Utena and Anthy is lovely.

Okay. So, I love both yaoi and yuri. I have way too much time and was posting both yaoi and yuri pictures last night (couldn't sleep). It got me to thinking about the differences between yaoi and yuri. I mean, I love yaoi because of the totally gorgeous men, the wonderful stories, romance, and sex (duh). But I also think yuri is hot beyond words. The only thing I've really seen of yuri, however, is mostly very lovely colored pictures and tacky (in my opinion) porn-esque things. I've run across a few very short pieces of yuri manga and I have to say, it mostly sucks. The art and the stories PALE in comparison to my favorite yaoi manga(s), which have really taken my breath away at times. So wtf, mates?

What are your thoughts between yaoi and yuri? (I hope I can talk about this here since its a yaoi guild) Am I just missing all the amazing yuri manga that's carefully hidden somewhere, or does it just not exist? Btw, I know most women draw the yaoi manga, but what about the yuri? Is that mostly drawn by male artists? That could explain one reason for the suckage. Totally kidding! Don't hurt me, guys!

What is your preference between the two? Has everyone else pretty much experienced the same thing as me?

eek

Sadly the woeld of yuri creation is run mostly by very tacky pornish thinking males.
Yaoi is nomaly created by more romantic minded women.
It's a funny flip.

For some reason I like Yaoi more than Yuri because Yuri seems more pervert which I have no clue why my brain thinks that way. :S

I belive the only reason yuri is popular with boys is because of the cleavage. Yaoi is suposedly ment for girls so it's more romantic and focuses more on the beauty, not the sex. But perhaps there are some yuri stories with both beautiful art and a nice story (not that I'm interested in that stuff) but it's probably very hard to find.

I personally have noticed that with Yaoi is are actuall story plots with excellent drawings. Yuri is more just about porn. Also ever noticed if you go to a book store you will see nothing yaoi and very little yuri but if you to a dvd store they'll have yuri and almost no yaoi. What's the deal with that? But I love YAOI!
