I want to ask all of the questions but just one!? JUST ONE. How about yaoi? I just don't get why so many straight girls like yaoi I JUST DON'T GET THE APPEAL I am not asking the right person about this, am I?
oh, no, drop as MANY AS YOU WANT seriously no limit to a person.
Uhh gosh I wish I could explain why I like it, but I guess my opinion is that I like "slash" I dont really like to call it yaoi. I dont really care for the typical setup of it. The frail girlish boy and the stronger, more "cool" guy? That's just boring. All of my slash pairings are pretty obscure and out there, though I'm not sure what it is about both of them being guys that draws me in (or both girls). I like fictional guys.
Hi, I'm an unstoppable slash machine, can I roll into this conversation and offer my two cents?
I'm going to assume by "yaoi" you mostly just mean "gay men in general." Straight women sometimes like to see men have sex because (no surprise) straight women like men. It's the exact same thing as the heterosexual male attraction to lesbians. Not too puzzling. For me, personally, it's a power dynamic thing--I love strong power dynamics. Men holding each other down, men in subservience to other men, men in general.
Like momo, I don't go for yaoi (yaoi specifically) because so much of it seems based off of stereotypes: the smaller, younger, willowy uke attracted to the older, stronger, taller, oftentimes plain creepy seme, and also nobody's a switch, ever. That's pretty boring to me too.
I can count the yaoi pairs I like on one hand and they all have one thing in common: One is probably twelve years old and dies, and the other is a big jerk man.
It's close to the stereotypes, but I always take it too far. Waaay too far. Guro far lol.
You are right about that! I can't remember the last time I saw a developed female character. I spent years thinking I just hated female characters because I must be jealous of them in someway... until I realized that I hate them because THEY BORE ME. DO A TRICK. BLARGLE
