How old were you when
You started knowing what's yaoi and what made you stay? I'm sure some of you have read some pretty fk up yaoi troupe (more often than not, the troupe in yaoi are kinda messed up) and does it change your way of thinking or mess up your perception of reality and fiction?
I agree that minors shouldn't be reading stuffs like this but I would be a hypocrite to preach it since I was a minor when I started reading yaoi. It did opened my eyes to many concepts and some fk up stuffs but never once did I confused reality and fiction. I know very well that it's simply just something I read. If I'm curious or if I wanted to know more, I will simply googled it and understand it for myself.
I find it to be really weird when people start policing others on what they should draw or what they should write, because I've been reading stuffs like this since ages ago and it never affected me, it just makes me understand how fuck up it is that this happened and I've learn to understand what a bullshit it is.
SO, my question is, does reading yaoi change your attitude/perception/acceptance/understanding towards some of the topic that was portrayed in the yaoi and what is it?
For me, I've learn a lot. Accepting lgbtq+ and understanding free love, understanding the pain of being not accepted simply because of who you love, are probably the most prominent in all that I have come to understand.

I was fascinated by how they look good with each other. I haven't watch the anime at that time so I search more about the characters. That was the start of me going to the world of Yaoi. Then, I st...... 2 reply
I was in fourth grade (9or10?) When i learned about yaoi. I was so into kuroshitsuji that time then a friend of mine sent me a youtube video of a sebastian x ciel doujinshi. My first WAS A SHOTA MY GOSH. Anyways, i didnt feel good about it at first as my legs felt weak seeing something like the sex scenes portrayed there.
But what really made me s...... reply
I 100% agree with your point. I found yaoi at that age when i wanted to be edgy on the internet, and now that i'm past that phase i think reading the content when i did, did more good than bad. My main appeal (besides the sex scenes lol) was how well the characters were written and how i could empathize more with the character compared to shojou ty...... 1 reply
