I'm known as the quiet girl and when I read it in public I tend to want to yell or throw my phone especially I get embarrassed when people see me have a creepy grin on my face hehe.. (*」>д<)」─── just don't like people staring at me when I'm in the zone cause they might see the other side of me I try to hide....... :;(∩´﹏`∩);:
I think that's okay. Just do what you want to do. It's like people reading or watching normal hetero. porn in public. It just may not be socially appropriate to read any kind of porn in a public setting. If you're not comfortable with it, there's nothing wrong with it.
I understand your feelings because I also get way too into the yaoi or fanfics and also end up with the creepiest smiles and grin on my face. Sometimes, the secondhand embarrassment of the characters are strong. But, I only read in private because it's my passion, and I don't exactly want to share my personal relaxing time so I keep yaoi and fanfics as a private time.
Word to the wise, don't let shyness or embarrassment stop you from doing the things you like. You'll just miss out on the things you want and enjoy for no reason other then you're own silly feelings. Trust me, once I stopped caring about what people thought of me, it was so liberating. It's not easy overcoming those feelings, the shyness and embarrassment will make you uncomfortable, but the more you ignore those feelings and just do what you enjoy anyway, those feelings will lessen until you won't care what people think of you or feel embarrassed.
