If I'm gonna read a yaoi manga, it must have a good and believable plot. I can't stand redundant, cliche plots. Romance and tenderness is ideal. I prefer to see the characters "making love" as opposed to just "fucking". And of course, mutual consent is a must. reply

good storyline ;P
I don't really care about the art style and smut as long as the story line is good (and cute) then i'll read it. But if the story is just about rape *cough cough* CASTE HEAVEN *cough cough* or just smut and no plot then I might not read it for long or I'll force myself to read it but ill probably be regretting it later lol reply
I've read tons of yaoi and BL online, but sadly only own 4 hard copy manga, 3 light novels and 3 anime OVA's. I don't own any digital copies because I don't have a tablet or e-reader, and my poor old phone can't handle much of anything. I would buy more, but as a single mom of 2 teens working my ass off just to pay the bills, I can't afford to buy ...... reply
Well, I like a good storyline with good art of hot guys. I like them to fall in love naturally. I like for the plot and characters to seem realistic. I try to avoid any and rape, forced or 'tricked into it' themed yaoi when I can. I like love and smut together, not JUST smut. XD

My teenagers have no problems seeing different gender roles or sexuality portrayed in any kind of media because I raised them thinking that that love is more ...... 2 reply
Almost everyone knows I read BL and Yaoi. There are very few who don't, and those are passing acquaintances and coworkers that I'm not close to, or clients of mine. (I'm a children's behavioral health and disabled persons home health aide...so the HIPAA privacy laws and boundary issues mean we only know the basics about each other) I guess some o...... 5 reply
