					<description>I've just been letting everything wash over me these days, but shrug. I don't care. Not much on my mind to speak of. I haven't been up to much.</description>

					<description>The main difference between yaoi/yuri drawn by women and yuri drawn by men/ het is the people involved in it; yaoi tends to be a lot more tender and (comparatively) more story driven.  Yes, its smut plain and simple, but its smut with atleast a bit of drive.  Yuri drawn by men/het usually involves a few mangled sentences before people start having sex.  

Also; the argument that it it takes out gender roles is complete crap;  give me characters that arent just an uke and a seme, if they were interc hangeable and actually changed their rolls in bed it would add the the psychological realism and (hopefully) end the damn super uke syndrome that seems to have come from gravitation.

Another thing; please stop the doujinshi.  All it does is hurt.

					<description>[...] She couldn&amp;#8217;t have said it better: &amp;#8221;I’ve recently discovered yaoi and consider it beautiful and breathless. I’ve wondered myself what, exactly, appeals to me about it, and have mostly failed to come up with the words. I think, perhaps, there is something about seeing a man so completely overcome that he responds directly to the person, regardless of anything (including gender!). So many men, at least in this culture, seem so very divorced from their emotions that it’s a delight to see (once again, for me) the sweep and power of male passion: I can imagine myself as one of the participants, the object of all that desire.&amp;#8220; So was the comment of 55 year-old widow on The Beat&amp;#8217;s Article on &amp;#8220;Yaoi and Boy&amp;#8217;s Love&amp;#8221; featured on Publisher&amp;#8217;s Weekly. I couldn&amp;#8217;t agree more.

					<description>the comment above is seriously stupid and in poor taste.  &quot;ehh??&quot;  

But to answer his question above a woman finding her husband in bed with another, it depends. 
I would probably get mad that my husband kept his attraction to men a secret from me, but to make up for it, he should let me watch. It's the least he can do. 
If the other dude is really hot, he can move in and we can hopefully engage in threesomes. It would be so great to come home and see them going at it! 

(of course, that is just my opinion. Some people don't like sharing....but I don't think I would have a problem sharing my man with another sexy man, as long as I was included somehow as well.)

And I think this goes for the majority of straight guys. They would be outright lying if they said they had something against having their girlfriend be with another woman, as long as they all had a threesome.
In the same way, I enjoy watching good looking males together, and if it happened in real life I would probably thank my lucky stars. 

In conclusion, I think yaoi is awesome and I am so greatful it exsists.</description>

					<description>I see yaoi, in part, as a reaction to modern women’s revulsion to romance. Personily I love the idea of romance despite my distaste for it. A lot of straight romances that are available I find hard to swallow but because I find it easier to disconnect myself from it I feel I get into it more, and its often explicit nature just keeps my cynical side in check when the romance gets to heavy, if as nothing more than as a distraction.

Yaoi means so much to me it’s a romance I can handle, though not everyone I know would believe that.</description>

					<description>Nowadays a man and woman's relationship to me seems predictable and boring. But two guys together just does something for me. It's as simple as that. It's hot and it entertains me and I love it. It's almost like a drug because once I realize I liked it, I had to find more more more more!

And I love my boyfriend because he completely understands my love of all things slash. Before I was 18 and him being of age, he would buy me certain yaoi movies that I was just DYING to watch. My other friends thought yaoi was weird (even my best gay guy friend!), but my boyfriend just shrugged and said to each his own. Whatever got me going. It all just depends on what kind of person you are, I suppose.

Now if only everyone else could be that understanding and just get over the fact that two guys toghether is utterly appealing to some of us.</description>

					<description>I love yaoi, so why do so many people judge it. Boys like seeing the yuri (lesbian) stuff and girls like yaoi. In many different yaoi mangas I have read, the stories have their own  complicated situations. I sometimes dream of yaoi characters in different circumstances, but that's for my own delight. Some girls think that boy on boy is the best thing, while guys think bout girl on girl is the best thing.</description>

					<description>I'm 55, and the widow of a wonderful, 25-year, emotionally satisfying and complex relationship.  I've recently discovered yaoi and consider it beautiful and breathless.  I've wondered myself what, exactly, appeals to me about it, and have mostly failed to come up with the words.  I think, perhaps, there is something about seeing a man so completely overcome that he responds directly to the person, regardless of anything (including gender!).  So many men, at least in this culture, seem so very divorced from their emotions that it's a delight to see (once again, for me) the sweep and power of male passion: I can imagine myself as one of the participants, the object of all that desire.</description>

					<description>I'm sure why I like Yaoi. But in most cases the storyline is really good. I always feel reminded of Romeo and Juliet. Two people loving each other, even though they are not supposed to. But stories that have this Romeo and Juliet theme with a girl and a boy are to me not realistic anymore. In these times girls can meet whatever boy they want. In contrast to that gay-love is still a taboo. So there are more obstacles for the characters. The development of the relationship is more complicated. Because of that Yaoi-stories are a lot more interesting to me than other stories.</description>
