138. YEAH!!! So glad to see another one out there.

140. Hahahahaha. I love him too.

146. I'm still not over it either.

@127: thank you thank you thank you thank you.

154. Late to the party and no one will answer prolly, but what is the other fandom/couple there? I only know BBT Penny/Sheldon. :/

Stargate Atlantis, Rodney McKay/Jennifer Keller.

Also a nerd pairing, btw: PhD, PhD/MD, neither of them big on social skills.

Ooooh now I see it. I felt like I should know them and I did, it's just a weird pic/scene I'm not familiar with. Thanks for replying!

101. Romance doesn't have to muscle out friendship. I've always thought that the person you fall in love with should also be (or become) your best friend.

/soppy old thing

118. I don't watch Torchwood and so can't yay, nae or wtf your secret, but thank you for clarifying the seme/uke stereotype part of your secret. (Though not all slash or yaoi is written like that.) Bonus points, OP. Let me give you them.

127. I... really have so many places to start that I don't even know which to pick. Other people have pretty much reiterated my points (yaoi =/= slash, misogyny, &c &c), so let's just say that my fandom, fannish interests and fantasies don't have a thing to do with you. You have no right to tell me what I am or am not allowed to enjoy, just as I have no right to tell you what to enjoy. I'm not dragging you into it. I'm not expecting you to watch/read/write/whatever and I certainly don't give a ha'penny for your approval. Be offended. Great, that's your right—just like I'm offended that the uke/female-stand-in is such a stereotype. But get off your damned high horse.

Romance novels depict male/female relationships in a frequently smutty fashion for a primarily female audience. It is not always porn. There is plot because they're aimed at women, and women seem to prefer plot. They are not realistic, not intended to be, and no one thinks they are.

Yaoi depicts male/male relationships in a frequently smutty fashion for a primarily female audience. It is not always porn. There is plot because they're aimed at women, and women seem to prefer plot. They are not realistic, not intended to be, and no one thinks they are.

Do you see the parallel?

129. (crosses legs) OUCH, no. Not me. I keep myself trimmed, but I refuse to go 100% bare. It's not worth the time or the pain to wax, and it's not worth the itches for me to shave! I generally don't even bother with my legs. I have miracle-gro leg hair that takes a while to hack through, so unless I'm wearing something not-pants I leave it alone. I kind of wish I could, but... yeah. (shrug)

The pits, though, are shaved nightly. Underarm hair (male or female) is weirdly gross to me.

160. Sorry, totally random but OMG THAT PIC IS SO CUTE!

175. o.o; That is the... dumbest reason for someone to end a friendship ever. A book is so important? Your former friend needs to pull her head out.

I do it.

Hey, no worries! I NEVER heard of this show untill Tennant happened and then I knew about it only because I fancied Tennant in Harry Potter movie and wanted more but he was nowhere to be found and then it turned out he had this LEADING ROLE in LONG TV SHOW :O. So I watched it for the hotness and stayed for general awesomeness - and went to Old Who and I'm loving every second of it - with Tennant or without him. So go for it! Watch it! You'll love it and if you won't, you might just love 11 and then appreciate the rest of it ;)

This is at secret 157, obviously :)

138: Man, I thought I was the only person in the world to have seen/loved this movie. And, yay, to the ship too!

146: I'll never forgive RTD

147: I love this movie but I never considered that ship though ............. I like it.

I disagree, but we each have our own tastes. It's just that I was especially pleased that Ulquiorra almost completely retaining his human form (with the exception of the wings), because it means he's a Vasto Lorde, and extremely powerful...and hopefully he won't just be "fodder" for Shirosaki once the guy actually comes out. :/

I shave every few weeks or so. I have easily irritated skin, I always end up with razor bumps and I really dislike the feeling of hot wax. Nair and other similar products leave bad smells on your skin after use and aren't always effective. I can suck it up but if I go a few weeks with a bush down there, I don't really care.

174. I like to mimic the sound of his laugh. WOODT WOODT WOODT WOODT WOODT!

103. If they had a RL doll like that, I think people would take notice.

108. Picture choice makes me ROFL.

118. ...But what of the people who write their yaoi/slash with the two guys as equals?

127. The more I read this secret, the more I think you have entitlement issues. Even though I do agree with your general sentiment, and a lot of women objectify gay men as "safe" men....you're still a jerk.

166. *SQUEE* ...I mean, I know quite a few people who have Haruhi as a role model.

125 - THAT SHOW. <3333

129 - Wax? Hell no! SHAVE.

138 - I love that film. Had a fucked up nightmare about it years ago that still haunts me.

::throws up hands::

Alright, apparently I don't get it. Apparently if two men just happen to be involved in a series, but that relationship is not the focus of said series, then the relationship is somehow 'unrealistic'.

Even more unrealistic than the whole shooting aliens aspect, of course.

101- They are the original bromance, imo. I love them and their EXCELLENT friendship to pieces. :)

121- I never really thought about it, but Chance/Sassy is pretty damn cute. x) And I've always thought of Shadow as just more.. fatherly to both of them.

129- It is a tad disconcerting... :\

135- :( Hope you find your daemon kitty.

155- Can I think that they're equally mature in different ways?

134. Omg, can I read it, please?

OMFG I KNOW HOW THAT IS. I probably would've killed myself long ago if it weren't for Pokemon. If I weren't lazy and suck at etiting pics, I'd probably make a FS about it...

P.S: Scyther's national dex number is 123, holy crap.

And real straight women don't order pizza and then forget five seconds later and climb in the shower. (The pizza guy probably doesn't have a 10-inch wang, either.)

Porn isn't made to be realistic.

I'm not writing or reading about "gay guys"; your orientation isn't my fandom. I'm writing about Character X and Character Y, and I don't really care if gay men think my fantasies are "realistic". If I wanted "realistic" gay porn (or at least, gay porn written by/for gay guys), I'd go back to the rubbish at nifty.org. And if you think yaoi is formulaic, try reading some of the submissions there!

----
This is coming, by the way, from someone who just posted a serious rant on one of her fandom comms about how stupid the seme/uke, taller/shorter trope is. I'm not claiming it's good writing, or even interesting! I just don't see why you're expecting a genre that is 1. porn and 2. started as a by-women-for-women genre and 3. involves fictional characters frequently set in fantasy worlds to conform to modern-day homosexual male aesthetics.

Few things are more annoying than an outsider looking in just to tell fans that fandom is Doing It Wrong. Would you appreciate it if the yaoi fangirls came into a gay-rights community to suggest that, really, what you need to do is decide if you're a seme or uke?

(If you have actually encountered this... *cringe* I don't put it past certain sections of the fandom, but please, PLEASE don't judge all of us on the actions of the -- hopefully -- very young and stupid!)

Um... which fandom/show?: 106, 110, 120, 126, 150, 154 (the bottom half, BBT I know), 164. They look kinda interesting from the images but I don't know where to look for something I don't know the name of. ;)

115: Zuko with glasses looks adorable. :D I'm not a Zuko fangirl either but that picture is cute.

118: O_o I watch Torchwood and I don't remember that scene! What episode was it from? I think I have some re-watching to do. :D

119: Yeah Freddie's boring but at least he's not his sister or his father (I'm sorry, did the dad even LISTEN to the lyrics his darling girl was singing??). Or Cook.

146: The end of Donna's story was heartbreaking - she finally figured out where she belonged and what to do with her life and then had it all taken away while saving everyone... and won't even remember what she did! But.... gotta ask, you said you don't like 'New Who' (173), so what made you care? ;)

175: Amen. I read Twilight. Wasted two hours of my life. A bunch of my friends are squeeing fangirls though so I find it much easier to play like I've not read it than to say that for fear of being lynched. I do think that taking Mr Sparklie (that would be edward) out to a club and stripping him would be fun for the mutant disco ball effect he'd produce with the lights.

I'm kind of waiting for Miyazaki's estranged son Goro to make a film about cynical children with no magical powers who hate the rainforest and couldn't give a shit about world peace.

111: I sort of crushed on Rick at first; the patheticness was somewhat appealing. He's kind of the main character, so if you like his antics, then you're probably a genuine fan of the show.

127: Yeah, I don't get it. After knowing a lot of same-sex couples, the seme/uke fixation just seemed weird. It's not something I would ever think of when imagining a potential couple.

134: Haha, you're awesome. We should be friends.

135: It's been two months, but good luck. Sometimes, they do return.

159: o______o;

168: Hah! At least they're funny in talk shows. Remember when Olbermann was waiting on the side at Letterman, just in case McCain didn't show up?
