I don't think there's any problem in finding yaoi dynamics pleasurable, most of the fanrage against it seems (in my experience/opinion) to be directed at fans who think those dynamics-- the pathetic helpless partner and the aggressive controlling partner-- constitute a healthy and desirable relationship.

Kinda like my thoughts on Twi-hards/Twi-haters, I guess.

Most of the rage I see is from people who THINK that yaoi fans think that dynamic is normal/healthy/real etc. Some probably do, but in my experience the haters pretend everybody believes it.

I have encountered some yaoi fans who do think that dynamic is healthy and romantic in the real world, but they tend to be very young. So I figure with any luck, they'll grow out of it.

I would think that they do. I generally interact only with older fans and can't think offhand of anybody with that attitude. It might be an annoying viewpoint but I can't fault people for the inexperience of youth. That's life.
