First Glance At...
Yaoi or Shounen-ai. M/M relationships and "pretty boy" love.
And the Japanese certainly know how to make a pretty boy.
I remember the first time I was introduced to something like that. Freshman year of college. The girls I ended up hanging out with for a while were so dead into it. Anime I had never heard of and the relationships that either were there, or the relationships that were made up for pure enjoyment.
The first anime I saw with any of this was FAKE. It's about two detectives, Dee Laytner and his Japanese/American partner Ryo. The sexual tension between the two was palpable. Dee was always trying to put the moves on Ryo, Ryo was reluctant to give in to the urges that Dee inspired within him. And Dee just couldn't catch a break between another detective named JJ going after him, a guy who went by the name of Rose going after Ryo, and a little orphan boy named Biki trying to keep Ryo safe from Dee. I only got to see one movie, and I think that's all there was. But the manga series was so amazing.
I think about it now and I get that fuzzy nostalgic feeling accompanied by my newfound lust for the M/M relationship. Who would have thought that the thought of two men being together would be such a turn on? Certainly not me. Of course, I CANNOT tell my husband that. He would flip if he knew and would probably freak out.
Now, there are so many guy-on-guy relationships that I read about on my fanfictions. I want to try writing them, but I can't even write my own stories to save my life. Maybe I should skip the story and go straight for the steamy no-plot-necessary sex. Mmmm....Sounds good to me.
Okay.
Gotta go masturbate again.
