Title: Yaoi? Yuri? Hetero? None of the above?
Post by: Serika on July 26, 2008, 04:39:03 pm
I'm just curious, as I've seen a lot of yaoi fangirls here and elsewhere on the internets... And stuff. XD;  Posting after voting would be appreciated, maybe explaining your reasoning why. 

Personally I'm not a yaoi fan, though het and yuri are OKAY! with me.  I have no problem with gays in real life, I just don't usually like how gay male relationships are depicted in anime/manga/TV.  Plus due to an awful hospital experience I WILL NOT go into, butt things aren't really my style, and for some reason yaoi in anime makes me think of that!  There are a couple...couples I like (Mithos/Genis for anyone who's played Symphonia... But I twist their relationship into something totally not cute like yaoi I've seen for them.), but most of my fanon couple shipping whatsits are either straight or lesbian. 

So yeah, let's hear what you like, and why you like it!



ALSO, NO FIGHTING OVER WHETHER OR NOT ONE THING IS GROSS.  Everyone's entitled to their opinion!  Just because I don't like yaoi, I'm not going to yell at you for being into boy-love, and I don't expect any of you to start throwing homophobic insults at me (or anyone else) for liking certain pairings.  Think you'll have difficulty following this rule?  You might want to leave now. 8D;

you don't have a answer that I can decide on.  :( I wanted to say I like all three. really it just depends on the plot and what the characters look like. where everyone in the story is all the same gender and gay? nu uh. het is totally okay wit me since well I'm straight but I love to see guy/guy, girl/girl action. simply, love is love to me

I have yet to come across a yaoi pairing that just makes me scream 'Kawaii neko desu!!1!11'... And I'm not really one for yuri either. So yeah, I'm more of a het fan.

Did you vote, or can you think of another option I should add?

yeah I decided to go with the first one. it doesn't seem to be the right answer to me though. maybe if there was an option of 'I like all three' or something like that. :3 but you don't have too.

Het is perfectly fine, seeing as that's what I grew up with. But, I really like all three. I really love certain Yuri pairings, but Yaoi is just full of so much awesome ness. So, again, all three.
