153. Honestly, I think what you're into is way healthier than your earlier affectation. It's actually a transition I see a lot when yaoi fans mature; they stop reading the oft-exploitative-style manga with tiny dickgirls and male fashion models in exchange for works that present a more realistic scenario with what are usually more stable and healthy relationships between characters who can at least pass as men.

Yeah, whatever people, go ahead an give me a snarky reply to my comment. The core of the matter is, most yaoi comics present a traditional, sexist view of romance, only one character is ostensibly male instead of female. The works designed for actual gay men tend to be better at avoiding this problem.

Wait? So reading bara is healthier and "more realistic"? So, replacing the metrosexuals and the impossibly beautiful with just as unrealistic beefy men is somehow more realistic and less explotive? The amount of rape bara title really knock this assumption down. Bara isn't really different than hardcore yaoi except that difference and maybe, maybe the guys act a little more aggressive.

And I'm tired of the bara fans that feel speshul and say all yaoi is filled with tiny dickgirls when you can find yaoi titles without them quite easily.

And in before I don't read bara because I do.

Fucking thank you.

Yes, yaoi is exploitive.

No, Bara is not less exploitive just because it features beefy men.

"most yaoi comics present a traditional, sexist view of romance"

So true! I think I'm lucky that the yoai-readers that I know in real life aren't into pairings like that.

I sooooo AWTC. It's because of that, slash fangirl I am, that there's only a few yaoi titles I can actually bear to read. Yeah, canon m/m is nice and all, but I can find sufficient amounts of that (as well as 'OMG almost!canon) in other media and genres, supplemented with fic.
