i started with the very vague bl undertones anime when i didn't even know what BL is. it's getbackers. but the actual BL anime i've watched knowing what it is for the first time is yami no matsuei. as for manga, i think it's hard romantica (which nobody probably knows)
I know! i know that i'm a decrepit obaa-san so i don't even want to count the years from where i orignally started.
My first yaoi was probably sekaiichi hatskoi. Though the way I got into yaoi was a little weird. I was reading genderbender shoujos and when I read those I tend to forget that one was an actual girl with a guy but on paper they both look like guys if they're not in their usual outfits. But I was 18 when I got into yaoi.
I'm just curious but..l what was your first yaoi manga or anime? My first one was Junjou Romantica the manga and the anime ヾ(❀╹◡╹)ノ~ though I don't know if Junjou Romantica is a yaoi or a shounen ai tho... But it's still the best ╮( ̄▽ ̄)╭ oh yeah, also how old where you when you started~?
