Why are people idiots?
And in other "I hate humanity news"...
Normally antiyaoi is pretty light-hearted. They take their resident trolls pretty well (that would be me and a few other yaoi fans)-- mostly because a good half the membership (including at least one of the mods) doesn't mind some yaoi, they just hate the cliches and the fangirls. Which I totally relate to.
There are rules in place about keeping the line between anti-yaoi and anti-gay clear, and there's the occasional minor blow up over it. Minor because most members figure out how to talk around the issue. But then the occasional new person shows up. And doesn't know when to shut up.
(I find the first thread in the first post mildly amusing, since netbug is actually pretty Christian. S/he just learned very quickly to be circumspect about the morality aspect... And was trying to impart this bit of wisdom to the OP. It didn't work too well.)
In case you want to get straight to the vitriol, Try this thread, where she tells me that being yelled at online is the same as being beaten for coming out of the closet, and then tells me that my girlfriend should leave me for a man because all she needs is the cock.
Or this thread in her apology post about how she meant everything she said, she just wants to move on, but she doesn't care about forgiveness and I'm just a quitter because I can't find a good man. Bonus for one of the mods giving her a warning and shadsie telling her off.
A lot of the fun threads are gone in the first post because she went around deleting stuff, woe. But there's plenty of vitriol and eye-gouging entertainment for all!
As a note, I'd like to point out how warm and fuzzy it makes me feel that a bunch of the antiyaoi regulars were bitching her out too.
ETA: Twit got us on Fandom_Wank (color me unsurprised :D) So she's been banninated from antiyaoi. In retaliation (to spoil our fun) she deleted all the comments on both posts. But there are screencaps at the F_W post here, if you want, and if anyone REALLY needs, I'm sure I can go back through my e-mails to rebuild the more boggling of our conversations.
ETA the Second: You know, the most annoying thing about this? I'm bisexual with a general preference for women. I like men. I just happen to be totally in love with a woman, and have a certain marked preference for tits. But I couldn't SAY THAT because she'd be able to say "AHA! You like men. Clearly you can choose to date men." And totally ignore the fact that I don't want to date anyone besides koala_motchi. I fell in love with who I fell in love with. That's what happens when you don't care about the gender of your partner.
And, sadly, I've had a lesbian aunt tell me this exact thing-- "It will make your life easier. If you can date men, date men."
