11. Ask for betas anyhow? And I hate to be a spelling nazi, but 'language'. Please.

19. Brb playing Persona 3. And yes, fapfapfap. Akihomo is awesome with guys. I like him with Mitsuru too, but eh.

26. I feel awful, but I do this for every comic/manga/online comic I read too. If the art is awkward to me, I'll just lose interest, no matter how much I'm told whether the story is good.

27. I concur! More lefties in fandom please. ♥ Word from a fellow leftie. Haha.

30. I concur so hard. The story IS shit in most places. I watch it for the 'family' interactions.

49. Oh my God, please don't be afraid to come out to your flist because of internet twatwaffles. Your flist should like you for who you are, not just your sexual orientation. If they can't get over that part, they're just... well, a twatwaffle.

56. It's either your thing or it's not. Do you get frustrated because you don't understand why other people would find other fetishes interesting, say S&M or fat people? It's honestly not such a big deal. xD

64. Good for you. I'm in the same position; I just don't feel like I'm ready. I'm past the point where it upsets me for not being as far as my friends. It's just an aspect of yourself, it isn't who you are. I'm glad for you. ♥

69. ...Yes.

56

Not the OP, but I know no one really cares if I like yaoi or not. And I do like the occasional yaoi fanfic.

But sometimes I do feel a little left out when nearly everyone is saying "Hey, wouldn't ____ be so much better with some mansex in it?" and I'm looking to see if there are any women in _____ because I like female characters better. (Which maybe isn't even what the secret means and the secret is just about yaoi manga; I don't know.)

It's not that they're wrong or I am, but I do feel like I'm weird sometimes for not getting the appeal. It doesn't really matter though, if people are enjoying it then, hey, good for them.

[identity profile] antiva.livejournal.com 2008-03-18 11:22 pm (UTC)(link)
Ahaha, you have gradations in people who like yaoi though. I feel a little mystified myself when I hear people slashing people from Death Note. I do like pairing guys up when I think it would be a nice pairing, but sometimes I prefer the het to the slash, or sometimes I just don't pair off anyone.

But if anyone ever said to me whether ____ series would be better with more mansex and was serious about it, I'd hit them with fail macros. Ahahaha. That sort of thing is usually just better left in fanfiction and fanart.

I think it was more about the whole 'girl with a penis' thing than anything else, judging by the covers the secret portrays, but eh. XD

Re: 56 tl;dr

[identity profile] rosehiptea.livejournal.com 2008-03-18 11:28 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh, definitely, I don't think there's some huge group of "people who like yaoi" and then a giant moat between them and "people who like stuff that isn't yaoi," especially since I do like a little good yaoi or slash now and then and I just happen to love het and yuri more. But I do know a lot of people who only like yaoi or like it way more than anything else, and I'm fine with that but I don't really "get it." But I don't have to.

And yeah, I think that was what the secret is about.

(I think most of the people who say that are joking. But I still feel like "Not really" is a clueless answer on my part... XD. I usually try not to say anything though I've had decent discussions if I do.)

Re: 56 tl;dr

[identity profile] antiva.livejournal.com 2008-03-18 11:32 pm (UTC)(link)
Eh, I used to be one of those people. I read all of the plotless yaoi manga, would only read yaoi stories, but I grew out of it, I guess? I prefer plots over smut now. So I can understand people who like only yaoi, but I think they're limiting themselves from other, equally interesting genres. Oh well, as long as they're happy. |D

Re: 56 tl;dr

[identity profile] rosehiptea.livejournal.com 2008-03-18 11:35 pm (UTC)(link)
Well, some people I know only like yaoi and they read only really good stuff. (Not that I think reading something plotless but hot is a sin -- I used to collect het doujinshi and it wasn't for the plot, and I'd probably still be doing it if I could afford it.)

So, yeah, as long as people are happy. I just feel like there's something I'm missing out on but it's not like there isn't plenty of good het and yuri out there for me to read.
