Why were that weird? I mean most fans of yaoi are straight girls. If you are attracted to one gender, why wouldn't you want to look at more than one of them at the same time?
Check my other question literally. CarpetDenim Master. I think the majority of yuri fans are also straight girls. Nandor Guru. I know but it is a example.
Oh fuck Its shoujo ai not yuri. Show All Show Less. Sign Up Now! Sort Girls First Guys First. Xper 7. You watch anime, haa weeaboo. I dunno, maybe you like that element? I guess you might think it was weird if there was a guy being all super fluffy and cute and girly in the middle of all this?
Perhaps it is in fact rooted in a deep-seated prejudice against men being so sweet and cute and considerate and loving, within the boundaries of Japanese media.
I say, let them! Let there be equality in this world! Let the men be as cute and fluffy as they want! I mean, maybe that happens? XD I mean, there's the stereotype about women dating men who are like their fathers so presumably that's the kind of guy their mother liked Rasp View Profile View Posts. I dunno I've always gotten along with girls better than guys and doubly so when they're lesbains - dunno if its the culture or the way the mind works.
I've never felt at home anywhere with anyone yet amoung a yuri commnuity I always feel closer to being at home than anywhere else - even the occasional guy i've met is more fluffy and attactive. Just feels like I can be myself and I don't have to pretend to be something I'm not. Not to mention I do feel I actually like this stuff, which doesn't hurt; I'm just trying to know what others especially girls see in it.

Well, before this whole thing goes down the drain: Still a very simple reason. I'm a girl. I'm into girls. I find straight content overdone and annoying and, quite frankly, romance between women just makes me go all giggly and happy. It's there, that's cool, but it doesn't touch me. Not that there aren't some exceptions, mind you. But even those are usually impossible to enjoy unless I force myself to ignore absolutely everything about how actual people work.
Originally posted by Blackrising :. As a probably straight dude but maybe not I'm still young, so, who knows, maybe I'll discover I'm bi or pan or whatnot when I'm older , I can't really tell why I like yuri so much Well, there are three possible reasons I've come up with thus far One: I've seen shitty het relationships ruin so many great shows, movies, and whatnot Arrow was definitely ruined by Olicity, but that happened long after I got addicted to yuri, so I can't really use that as a reason Well, the point is that het relationships often overtake the main storyline to such a degree that it butchers the whole story as a whole.
Gay relationships usually don't overtake the main story so badly I'm kind of fine with het romance when the genre of the story is actually, you know, romance because I obviously know what I'm getting into when I read a heat romance story. I haven't really read much het romance, so hell if I know Why the fuck would any woman like a story like fucking Fifty Shades of Grey, which is more or a less an abusive relationship granted, I never read the book or watched the movie, and all the information I have on it is from articles condemning it, but, considering the subject matter I've dabbled in a bit of yaoi too; Prunus Girl was great though I admit I decided to read it because of the lesbian sidecouple tag , though I haven't really found much yaoi that doesn't use that dumb seme-uke dynamic again, hate seeing controlling relationships and isn't just plain messed up I'll gladly take any recommendations.
With yuri, the partners tend to be on a more equal basis, which is certainly something I enjoy Ever since I was young, my mom always told my sister and I "Don't get married" and similar things because of, well, my shitty dad Due to this, I've never been interested in romance and I really don't see myself ever becoming interested in it it's possible that I'm aro too, of course. Looking at other het relationships of the parents of my friends, I don't really see any love Are we going to start tiring of each other and merely stay together out of obligation after a while?
That doesn't mean I'll pass up a good comedy if there's a yuri subgenre. But it'll likely influence what I think of it negatively. I do like some yuri :3 Stuff like Sakura Trick was nice, I have yet to see anime that would come close with amount of kisses.
Was really enjoyablye to watch. Without drama, just cute and heartwarming. I'm not a homophobe quite the opposite really but I just don't find men going at it to be as cute as girls. I just love girls! PeripheralVision said: I'm not a homophobe quite the opposite really but I just don't find men going at it to be as cute as girls. I like yuri. If yaoi had more anime like No.
With that said, I don't have anything against materials that cater to straight and bi women; straight and bi men have ecchi, after all. I just wish that there was more variety. I watch yuri sometimes, but thats rarely, I prefer good written stories and nice character development, but sadly I cant find anything to up my standards in yuri genre. Mayuka Offline Joined: Jul Posts: Please remember my answer is you. If I'm interpreting this correctly, you're saying that guys only watch yaoi because they want to get closer to girls?
No, I said it's common for guys to like yuri as are girls are into yaoi. BBCode Ha. I'm laughing because you got hurt. It's normal to like both. That means you're open to both genres and don't discriminate against one specific one lol I'm the same. I like shoujo-ai if it's done right and not just fanservice. Yea although I'm into more of the softer yuri. I should've included that, I love both as well.
Most of what I've seen is pretty soft, I wouldn't mind watching the more hardcore stuff I would think the manga is more of the hardcore stuff than the anime.

Well that's the male equivalent for fujoshi. I think he wants to know whether there's a word for guys into yuri. What about Loveless? I've only watched the anime. Is the manga soft? That has a mixture of both yuri and yaoi. I highly recommend it, they put alot of emphasis on feelings and what they're love actually is and means instead of just hooking up. I see I guess I'll find out when I get the chance to read the manga.

Well, shouldn't joshi be written in hiragana or kanji but manga logic usually uses katakana. So the fu is probably a kanji, if only I know, I may figure out whats the reverse of it. Guess there's probably no opposite if it's not even mentioned in fictions series.
Who knows.
