12. 'I'm a BNF in everything I touch. I don't mean to, it just happens.'

36. Err...
45. A gay guy is a girl with a penis? The more you know...
56. What's with all the 'I don't get/like yaoi' secrets lately. So? Read/watch something else if it doesn't appeal to you. It's not as though there isn't a ton of manga/anime out there that caters to other interests.
60. I miss the good old days when trolls were actually good at what they did. Protip: the first step to being an effective troll is making a secret/statement that doesn't scream 'obvious troll is obvious.'
75. Because enjoying certain types of sex is totally against feminism. Yeah.

56, 60

56. ...Because yaoi fandom is huuuuuuge.

60. Oh I know right it would have been okay if it hadn't been for that thing at the end...maybe. Not really.

Overall, het fandom is larger and het is canon in most anime/manga out there, so I just don't get all the complaining. It's fairly easy to pass yaoi manga by when in the bookstore.

It's true, but I think that people percieve the slash fandom as being bigger than it is. *shrugshrug*

I think people feel that people would jump down their throats, even if they wouldn't~.

re: 56...you've clearly never run afoul of some of the more batshit yaoi fangirls.

I've run afoul of more batshit het fangirls than yaoi ones, but perhaps that's just me.
pikabot: (kaku)

[personal profile] pikabot 2008-03-18 11:11 pm (UTC)(link)
That's not my experience! Well, no, I've run across more batshit het fangirls, but most of them weren't batshit in their devotion to their preferred type of ship, but rather batshit for entirely unrelated reasons.

(Anonymous) 2008-03-18 11:19 pm (UTC)(link)
so they can only be batshit for their preferred ship for them to register with you? do you realize you just negated your own argument?
pikabot: (kristoph finds you pathetic)

[personal profile] pikabot 2008-03-18 11:51 pm (UTC)(link)
Wow, you're an idiot. For this discussion, we are referring to the types of batshit fangirls who would just down your throat for not liking yaoi, or het, depending on the variety. Therefore, fangirls who are batshit for unrelated reasons need not apply!

Reading Comprehension: it's NOT just for the intellectuals anymore!

[identity profile] etherealtsuki.livejournal.com 2008-03-19 01:51 am (UTC)(link)
Obviously, you haven't run into them. Inuyasha/Kagome fangirls vs. Sesshomaru/Kagome fangirls. The pairing war between Harry/Hermione and Harry/Ginny was especially vicious for year until the final book.

So no, there's a lot het batshit insane fangirls go batshit over their pairings too.

Although I don't feel the way #56 does, I used to. I think the problem is the stupidest people tend to be the loudest, so you get (what feels like) a lot of fangirls going "OMG! YOU DON'T LIKE NARUTO/SASUKE?? HOMOPHOBE!!"

Really probably only a handful of yaoi fangirls, but you only need a handful to sour you to a group of people sadly.

I thought sharing one's opinions on fandom was the *point* of [livejournal.com profile] fandom_secrets.

I don't remember saying they couldn't share their opinion. I'm expressing my annoyance at it, which I have a right to do like everyone else who has responded to this one.
