For over two years I kept my yaoi in a bag in a drawer, a drawer that I never use nor should anybody open. So when I came back from college for winter break, my mom told me, she and a family friend did a deep clean of my room, and she gave me this look... I knew immediately what that meant. I opened the drawer and found the yaoi stacked out of the ...... reply
It was really great at the time. I had my first kiss and my first boyfriend when I was sixteen. It was okay. I wasn't really that crazy about the guy, and he started showing some red flags a few months after we started dating. He was telling me that I was the only person he'd ever felt real affection for (whaaaat) and that he was in love with me, ...... reply
Make some online friends, definitely gonna second that suggestion. There are several forums you can join, you can message people on here, there are tons of ways to make friends with the same interests online. I have two online friends and if I get excited about yaoi I can just rave about it in our skype group, and they can always just ignore my ram...... reply
I was an absolute idiot as a preteen and got caught with yaoi multiple times, but for some reason still let me keep the yaoi I bought lol. She got pissy when she first found it before handing it back to me. Another time she saw some DRRR!! doujinshis I bought and when my dad asked what it was she laughed and told him it was rape porn. I still have ...... reply
Realistically, if a yaoi has too many sex scenes, it definitely won't get an anime. Its best chance is an OVA. So if your yaoi of choice is mostly sex, don't expect it to ever become a full anime. Sorry to kill your dreams. On that note, dream away. 1 reply
Naruto and Sasuke, I mean just look at them. Naruto wouldn't run around after him for all that time just because he's his 'best friend' he loves him. They even kissed, twice. The only reason they didn't end up together is because in this day and age, it wouldn't have been accepted. It's sad but true. Homosexuality is still, even today such a taboo ...... 6 reply
Hell no my parents would take my phone and laptop away or even cut the Internet if they did. They're not homophobic but they're super strict and old-fashioned, so sex is like a taboo topic to talk about in my family. I think they'll be ok with shounen ai, but not yaoi (because of the explicit sex scenes).
But I think my brother knows though ╮(�...... 3 reply
I understand you so much!
If your current friends aren't into it, maybe you could find online friends that love the same stories? You could probably find a website, or a chat, about your favorites anime and manga? (And if you can't find it, maybe you can create it? :D I did it once, it didn't really work, but it was pretty fun to do anyway!)

Overly feminine ukes and shotas, for sure. When I first got into yaoi when I was a preteen I was totally cool with super girly ukes, but nowadays I hate it when the uke can easily be mistaken as a girl at first glance and acts like one too. Usually I'm cool with dark stuff in yaoi like rape or incest but shotacon is a hard limit for me since they'r...... reply
Well, the first is shotacon. Is just a big no for me.
#2- rape. I've read quite some with this topic, is really common the reason of "i rape you bc I love you", but I don't really like it.
#3- extremely sparkling / blushing / feminized / weak characters xD Come on, they look totally stupid and unreal. They make me feel like I want to kick t...... 1 reply
Oh dear, so many deserve this! Oh gosh, well first I should mention that there's one that I'd like to have a video game adaptation: Toritsu Mahou Gakuen. I just feel like it would translate well to that format! Back to the question at hand, I suppose I'd have to say Critical Lovers, Brother Shuffle!(only cuz I love it so much), Daini Button Kudasai...... reply
I draw as much as I can. I also do alot of coping others work. It helps acually alot.
And I watch Sycra at youtube. He helped me alot to improve! And I mean, ALOT! He have been the best sensei ever :) reply
Oh gosh I love everything! However the thing that I've most recently been adoring is smaller semes with taller ukes! I'm especially a fan when those taller guys fall apart at their partner's touch... reply
I think the most important thing is to keep enjoying it.
I have days that i absolutly can't be bothered with drawing,
and other days i'm itching to grab my pencil :p.
Some days when everything i draw is horrible
and others that i feel like Picasso
I used to go to the library a lot (due to the fact that people still went to libraries back then xD) ...... reply
I love drawing.
I've been drawing ever since i can hold a pencil :p.
It was really convenient for my parents as well,
due to the fact that my dad worked at a printing office.
So i had a loooooot of paper at my house xD.
Plus my parents told me that that was the only time i was quiet.
I would have loved to go to art school or even take some art cla...... 2 reply
Most probably i will become a gentle and sweet seme but well somewhere within a bit sadist. I will treat my uke like he is the only one in my life, if he made me mad... probably i will be a hearless and cruel one. So i hope he don't come to the other side. But i forgive easly~ but forgive doesn't mean i forget so don't repeat same mistake. reply
It's kind of random, but lately I like reading yaoi that have the "forgotten first meeting" theme. As in years pass by until the seme and uke meet again, but they're "pulled" back together. reply
'Things' are your daily life experiences by which you get to know the world around you. Tell others about the things you did, may it be cool, sad, crazy or funny. You can also find things that you might want to do and a friend to do it with!
