What caused you all to fall into the BL pipeline? At what age?
Kind of curious how you all got into it and when.
For me, I was into romance manga around 13 but eventually got bored. The sites I used had BL manga too, so I got curious, and it just kind of snowballed from there. That said, I think I ended up reading way more explicit stuff than I intended at a much younger age just because those sites mixed it in with everything else. Sometimes I wonder how different my experience (or even my tastes) would be if I hadn’t stumbled into that so young.
Also, funnily enough, I still don’t really read explicit content and usually skip through it. Probably lingering religious guilt, even though I don’t believe anymore.
my mom got me a volume of sailor moon somewhere around 5-6 years ago and i liked the girls so much, i wanted to read more eventually i found myself on this site after doing some googling

Sometimes I wonder what my life would have been like as a medieval "woman" with no exposure to boys kissing. Very sad I assume.
i was never compelled by boyxboy until leopika from hxh but i was too embarrassed to look it up online. I think it took me like a month after I had finished the 2011 anime to investigate. When I did, it was like the floodg...... 1 reply
Thank you for all your responses!!! So cool to see how we all ended up in this community :)) These responses definitely being back forgotten interests from my childhood T-T Hope it’s the same for all of you too, or at the very least, that it brings a sense of belonging in this shared interest we all have reply
My actual start was me stumbling upon doumeki x watanuki from xxxholic doujinshis. My little 10 year old brain couldn't handle what i was reading but started shipping them from then and there. My first actual bl manga was Junjo romantica which i discovered maybe a year later. reply
killing stalking edits got me interested. I didnt even knew it was bl. After searching highnlow for 2ish years i got to read it & opened a door that shouldnt have opened in 1st place.
But i dont regret it even tho i have no self control & its hampering my studies badly. It happend in early teens. 1 reply
Blame my damn Gacha life phase and when I started watching Mha cuz my friend recommended it. I used to ship deku and ochaco then freaking gl/gc introduced me to bkdk. Then from there I lwk like reading bl more than straight manga. reply
canvas webtoon censorship got so bad one day I just really wanted to know what went on beyond the scenes that I didn't get to see and i dug myself a hole into this site, around 11 i discovered yaoi, around 13 i discovered the actual explicit stuff (MRM, wish I never touched that one album link) reply
