About the BL thing
Ok just a genuine curiosity for everyone that says that "yaoi" is not the correct term to use and that its outdated and that we should use the proper term "BL" instead. Like the reason why i use the term yaoi is because (yes i may seem like scum for saying this and no i do not fetishize gay men (︶︿︶)=凸) i prefer yaoi over shounen ai and majority of the time if they dont get down on it then i wont be satisfied with the book. So yes i read it for the sex scenes fucking kill me for my preference!!! Moving on, i use the two genres of yaoi and shounen ai to differentiate the kind of male homosexual relationship manga/manhwa/manhua/webtoon by using those two genres. I steer clear of shounen ai (especially when theres fucking GOURGEOUS art) and ill read yaoi because if i dont see them getting down and dirty im not satisfied (bite me ( ̄へ ̄)). And since shounen ai and yaoi are (well to me at least) used as labels to indicate yaoi= guaranteed at least one chapter of sex scene and shounen ai = guaranteed no chapter of sex scene but it is implied that they do have sex so if eveeyone just threw these labels away and just call it BL then what am i to do? Cause i also no that other use the two genres like i do but in reverse like how i use it to somewhat avoid shounen ai and how others use it to avoid yaoi cause they dont want sex scenes. I mean yeah we can label it as BL18+ in the tags but the first thing i look for is the genre. And if so will mangago be willing to change the whole yaoi and shounen ai tags to just BL and BL18+. Like look im frustrated with people hounding at me that yaoi is the outdated term or that its really insulting and that i should use proper terms. Well look here you have yoir valid reasons and i have mine. And i like what ive got going with clear distinct indications (UNLESS THEY LABEL IT WRONG BY SAYING ITS YAOI WHEN ITS ACTUALLY SHOUNEN AI LIKE WTF DONT DO THAT) of which BL im gonna read. I mean some of yall might not mind cause you guys dont mind if theres sex or no sex scene but hey you arent the only one in this site that has preference. Idk why i got heated at the end but yeah thats all.
you better be a gay man, otherwise you're fucking weird for just reading it for the sex scenes, and only reading something if it has sex scenes. 3 reply
"I don't fetishize gay men" and "I read it for the sex scenes" are contradictory statements. sounds like fetishization to me if you are not mlm. 2 reply
I don’t understand what’s the difference between “Yaoi” and “BL” cause like, doesn’t BL include sex too? It’s literally called “Boys Love”. What kinda sense does it make to say “Yaoi is a outdated term and it’s very harmful to gay men, use BL instead please.” when all yer doing in reality is just changing the way it’s sa...... 2 reply
could have just left this shit to yourself but instead you go out of your way and tell us you love yaoi sex scenes like wtf is wrong with you and your fetish to only see bl as the best genre when we have such good stuff out there that isnt 2 reply
Because "yaoi" tags practically invite fetishism. You're contradicting yourself by saying you dont fetishise mlm but only read mlm stories if they have sex scenes. Unless you're mlm, that's really weird my dude.
I dont see the issue with just calling it BL if it's an mlm romance story and rating it 18+ if there are erotic scenes. Your "valid reas...... reply
Honestly, thats so bullshit that yaoi is an "outdated term" no tf it isnt, theres a clear difference between comics being labeled yaoi in the genres and other comics being labeled boys love in the genre, i have enough common sense to realize that. reply
Nothing wrong with the term yaoi. It’s been the name of these manga since 1970 and let’s you know more immediately that it’s the more erotic version of BL.
I see BL as a more generic term that can include shounen-ai. If I saw something was titled BL I would still be interested in knowing if it’s yaoi or not. Like you, I appreciate the lov...... 4 reply
you better be mlm because if you’re not, i have some shocking news for you. you’re indeed an mlm fetishizer. fucking nasty, dude. i suggest getting a reality check, considering gay men are not for your own pleasure. disgusting. 2 reply
