Re: 64 OP
I'll admit, that was something I added myself.
I read a very generic, blanket statement.
I'm sorry, but loudly proclaiming something to me implies the above. Someone that simply says "heh, yaoi/yuri isn't my thing." when asked or when the topic comes up, is not loudly proclaiming his/her dislike for it. Now, someone that goes all "ZOMG YAOI/YURI SUCKS, IT'S DISGUSTING, WHY DO YOU DO THAT, OH AND EVERYONE THAT AGREES WITH ME, JOIN MY ANTI-YAOI CLUB!!"? That, at least as far as I'm concerned = loudly proclaiming their dislike for yaoi.
Also, pay attention to the fact that the OP wrote "female fanbrats". That, by itself should have indicated that it isn't directed at every female that dislike yaoi/yuri, no? Unless you consider all females in fandom be fanbrats.
I will agree it's not exactly the most logical of statements though.
Re: 64 OP
Now I could understand people exclaiming everywhere they can that they hate yaoi/yuri is annoying, but what if I make a long rant in my personal LJ, behind an LJ cut? That's loud, too, and that distinction wasn't made.
But hey. Secret for a reason, I guess.
Re: 64 OP
Depends on what the rant is actually about. Annoying yaoi fans? Unrealistic portrayal of gay men in yaoi? How feminine the characters look for something that is meant to be two men having sex? Unrealistic breast sizes and proportions in yuri? The existence of yaoi, yuri and slash in general along with people that like it, and how disgusting it is?
If it's any of the reasons other than the last one, I'd hardly think even the OP would feel like you're repressing something, since, you know, those are actually legitimate complaints, and don't really mean you wouldn't enjoy a story of two men or two women in non-platonic relationship.
Re: 64 OP
I think all of us need to realize that yaoi and yuri=/=homosexuality IRL.
Just because you like or are tolerant of one doesn't necessarily mean you'll like or be tolerant of the other. (For some of the reasons listed above by gay men, and some fangirls hating gay men IRL because they're nowhere near bishie enough for them to schlick over.)
