Yeah, I know that feel, bro.

For the record, these days I kinda enjoy slash quite a lot. (Rarely explicit stuff, though. Reading smut's just never been my thing, dunno why.)

But when I was into anime, I HATED yaoi. Even now, if I think of it as "yaoi" instead of "slash" I go cold. A looooot of memories of super genki-girls in their teens just going freaking INSANE. And in hindsight, as an adult, I can see it as teenage girls a bit heady at the concept of expressing and celebrating sexuality and going overboard on the silliness because in a fandom community you basically have an echo-chamber for squee.

But I still want nothing to do with that, really.

I didn't start liking slash until I was in a much tamer community where most of the fellow fans were older than me and there was a, for lack of a better word, maturity.

(Oddly enough, in the case of that first calmer fandom, it was the introduction of an over-enthusiastic teenage slasher who reeeeallly loved yaoi-ish elements that managed to make the fandom group fall apart. Most of the fandom just didn't feel like putting up with those shenanigans and, well...meph.)
