Yaoi – Why is it interesting?
-
-
Not Being a Yaoi fan myself. I'm reading this thread to put it ito perspective you me. E1n, love your speech. But now I have ot raise a point that has been bothering me.
I'm asking the Yaoi fangirls what they think of someone, I don't think It's too off-topic (Sorry ahead of time if it is)
What do yaoi fingirls think of Bridget from the Guitly Gear Series?
In case you didn't know, he's a fighter, in his villiage, having same-gender twins is bad luck. And there was him and his brother. So they raised him as a girl, and I still find it really hard to believe.
I don't want like… 500 posts to drag this off-topic, just a few answers would be nice, here's a pic.

Now, first things first you'll realize, flat chest. well only in examining pictures drawn of him will you see that. I would assume, that there are pics of him as a girl beofre we found this out.
It's also very difficult to tell during the game. He was given a female VA.
So yeah, just a few responses, just tell me if you think he's too feminine to be in yaoi.
Thanks E1n for the sig, and Traitor_Jim for the refine.

well i'm not a big yaoi fan, but i think he looks like a cute little boy. the type you wanna pinch his cheeks. cute like a fluffy kitty cute.
Like the art. I'll have to check out this guilty gear. and sounds like unique story, and charicter backgrounds. That's what gets me. :3

@e1n:
i'm sure there are people like that too. i've come across yaoi pairings from house or grey's anatomy. but from what i've seen around y!gallery, there are more people who restrict their yaoi fondness within the two-dimensional realm (that's why i said about 60-70%).
Yeah, I did take that into consideration. I thought it was interesting that your statistic is basically opposite of what I see IRL(tri-state area) and online. 60-70% like Yaoi and slashing other fiction works while 30-40% only limit themselves in the realm of manga/anime.

hmm… there's a different between going around slashing fiction work and actually liking gay porn, though. my initial statement said that 60-70% (or just simply "most", let's stop with the guesstimated numbers) of the people who like yaoi restrict themselves in 2-d realm, even when they're slashing tv-show characters. won't you agree, that even these people who slash just about everything, would go EW when you show them hardcore explicit gay porn video?
-
Bridget? My friend loves Bridget. I've seen him in yaoi though, so it's too late to say he can't be XD Honestly, I don't care. More shota to the world, honestly.
-
About what e1n and megakazul are saying, I think there's some yaoi type of slash fandom going on outside of anime/manga and into other media like American cartoons and even some live action tv shows/movies, but they're still restricted to the realm of fiction in mostly fantasy types of settings. And when I have seen non-anime type of slash stuff it's either in the form of writing or they're drawn in a bishie type of style.

I've never been aroused by the idea of two girls making out and having sex.
Does it make me a faggy =(

The problem here is that y!gallery contains a crapload of art, but very little fiction. I've READ slashy stuff from other fandoms, such as Lost and Prison Break and whatnot. However, seeing as how shows like this use live actors, it's understandably waaaaaay more difficult to draw them. The basic anime/manga style of drawing can be picked up fairly easily, and thus it makes more sense to draw these characters as opposed to "real" characters. If you look at ff.net, the anime categories have quite a few thousand fics each, but last time I checked, the Harry Potter section ALONE had well over 300,000. Check out somewhere like DA though, and you'll see that the quality of the anime drawings far outweighs most of the Harry Potter art that shows up on there.
It simply seems to be the particular kind of art media being observed.

Little boys are interesting, to say the least. I don't prefer the older sect, anyone above 15 males the story doesn't normally interest me. I am not really into men in real life, I just find it interesting for the stories usually leading to experimenting with each other. That is just me.

Yeah
Lesbian porn almost always bores me

Well, after pouring through the pages, I"d like to thank e1n for that awesome theory, and CosmicDebris for opening this thread back up for discussion.
Indeed, anything is discuss-able on the forums, so long as people are willing to make real contributions. And I'm seeing plenty of it.
When I created the thread, I was pretty much looking for a generalized reason behind the appeal. All these folks who "support", as it were, couples like Sanji and Zoro, Light and L, etc. etc., confused me. What exactly is so appealing behind two male anime characters, redrawn to sometimes look more feminine, engaging in homosexual behavior?
The answer not worth a damn is the Apple Jacks answer, "they just do". There's something generally unique behind every fetish out there, and this one just had me wondering.

Thirding lesbian porn being dull.

First to refute the proclamation that lesbian porn is dull.

How are you refuting it?
-
Girls into Yaoi like watching two anime guys be romantic. But they don't like two attractive real men being romantic.
It doesn't make that much sense to me, but oh well. Whether it's real lesbians or animated lesbians, it's lesbian porn. And all men like lesbian porn, no matter what. It's in their hearts next to Sniper Island.
-

By refuting it…
Just replace "refute" with "Disagree with," if it seems more fit.
-
I don't mind lesbian porn, as long there's a strap-on involved somewhere in there.

Ditto. Although I'm not sure if me wanting a strap-on involved is gay or not. Oh well, as long as a woman is involved, it's all good.
And for the record, yaoi is not good at all.

Well, ya caught me.
Now Midgets, on the other hand. . . .they're like World of Warcraft gnomes, but real!
Wait, WHAT!?

@Gerchak:

I think it's because animu guys look more cuddly than sweaty, real men.
the bigot who thinks being an asshole is actually worth shit

You should meet some of my friends.

They look more like emotionless breastless women really.

Romance is all well and good… but sometimes a girl just wants to see a bit MOAR than that.... And actually, I do like seeing real guys being romantic... I just don't get turned on by the real hardcore stuff. But that is just me ^^ I don't care what people think of me, I like whatever I like. Hell, I even like lesbian porn, animated or not
and that last bit of your quote made me laugh
and to disprove the stereotype of just liking yaoi because they're hairless or cuddly or whatever... I actually prefer manly men, like Aragorn/Boromir for example...... or as mentioned before, Shunsui/Ukitake <3

He likes the make-outs, but not the rug-eating.

I guess that means you have nothing to add to the conversation then, and you can happily ignore the topic.
By the responses so far, I'd say there's more to say than "duh". This is a discussion forum after all.I have to say honestly, while I don't have any problem with yaoi, I find the whole subculture interesting but I have a hard time understanding the attraction. I'm just the kind of person that likes to psychoanalyze stuff, even if you can't ever extract a solid answer. It's fun.
i'm exactly the same way….Cosmic
but in reference to the topic, i have never watched that stuffs so i don't know 0_0 what to say. i'll have to say is if you like it fine, if you don't like it fine. Some people like even though i don't understand it, and i probably don't want tooo soo that i was waste of 4 minutes so sorry, :getlost:now i'm going to go play of Halo 3:happy:

Wait when did this thing reach Page 7?! Anyway I was watching Genshiken Season 2 Ep. 5 and I remembered this thread….as much as I like Oguie, plz spare me from her Yaoi fantasies damnit...
