~ How to tell your friend that you read/like Yaoi ~
Okay, I need help on how to tell my bestie I like seeing two guys either making out or having sex.
One day, I told her that I read gay stuff and she wasn't disgusted or anything but a little bit shocked.. I think ? So, I'm sure she will accept my fujoshi side but I really don't know how to tell her that the thing I'm reading are more than a kiss.
'Cause I said that they just kiss and nothing else… (shounen-ai) I was afraid of what she would think so.. I didn't really say the truth. I just want to talk more openly about yaoi (even if she's not into yaoi), because come on Yaoi is wonderful right *^*
English is not my mother tongue, please excuse any errors on my part.
Well, it depend. Some YAOI are very explicit, porno. Others, less. And yes, certain person have problem with homosexuality. See them kiss or make love. For me, it can be a story between 2 lovers like anybody else. Some stories are very nice. It depend of her interest. Sport? Art? History? Yakuza? School? Animal? reply
They like manga? Recommend a title or email her a link of what you read. Sometimes shock is the best medicine. I have a friend and she ship KagaKuro (kuroko's basket) so we talked about it and she said she liked BL. Me being a native of yaoilandia recommended my fave little did I know that it is too hardcore for her. Haha we just laughed at it bec...... reply
I was living with a roommate in college, and let's be honest, how can a person not squeal when they read a super cute/hot/sexy yaoi! So, since my roommate already knew what a "fujoshi" is, so it is slightly easier. But I didn't straight out tell her, but hinted... like, "i love reading manga", and like "some of the stuff I read you might not want t...... 3 reply
Well... my best friend (female) is a huge anime fan just like me and she already knew what yaoi/yuri means. ^^' Of course she was a bit shocked at first but she wasn't disgusted or anything like that. But that's different from your situation.. I guess she isn't a anime/manga fan like me and my friend and she probably never heard anything about yaoi...... 2 reply
Just be blunt and send her/him a Yaoi Video/Manga that you like and write something along the lines: yaoi... me gusta
Or on a serious note:
If you have to tell this person that you read this kinda stuff, first find out what their "morals" are on (mostly) homosexual matters are if they are for whatever reason disgusted (makes no sense but there ar...... reply
Well, i think it depends on her personality and how you would feel if she does not take the news well. So if you know she finds two guys doing more than kissing disgusting,don't tell her and if she really doesn't mind that kind of stuff then you tell her. Also if you wouldn't mind her being disgusted at you if you tell her the truth and it does no...... reply
hi,
At me, the only person who knows that I read such a genre is my husband, and as to friends know only that I am interested in manga and anime,
They do not need to know
Even if they find out they will be surprised :) and then nothing
because they are good people and "they have an open mind" reply
Well buddy. I have a couple of friends that know I am in love with BL.
Here's the trick, my friend. Get to know that friend you want to tell. Find out if they're okay with it. Like, allude to the topic and see their reaction.
I cannot help more than this since usually my excuse to my friends when recommending a smut fanfiction or yaoi is for them t...... 1 reply
i am in a similar situation as you are. my best friend knows all about manga and anime and stuff like that because she's into that. but shes not into yaoi. and so i first was like, " yeah... i like yaoi kinda stuff..." and she was like"..." and i did the same thing you did and said it was only kissing and holding hands... light stuff like that.
