Reading a Yaoi manwha isn’t the same as watching real porn
Having to explain this is honestly sad, but reading a Yaoi story is NOT the same thing as watching porn.
I left a comment under a post where someone literally shared a link to porn in the comments. I simply advised them not to do that because there could be underage people on this site. Somehow, I got jumped by a bunch of weirdos for saying that.
Yes, I’m an adult. But I started using this site when I was 14. Is that a good thing? No. But I did, and that’s exactly why I KNOW for a fact that underage people are on here.
And then people are saying, “You’re complaining about porn while literally reading Yaoi.” Are y’all genuinely stupid? Because those things are not automatically the same.
Fictional Yaoi content and literal porn being shared on a public site are two completely different things. The porn industry also has a long history of exploitation, and consuming porn excessively can become addictive and affect the way people view sex and relationships.
And honestly, judging by some of these reactions, I can tell that a LOT of people here have a serious problem with porn. The fact that you’re getting this defensive over someone saying “maybe don’t post literal porn where minors can potentially see it” is wild. ┗( T﹏T )┛
100 % agree.
It’s not the same for the brain to read fictional explicit stuff and watch REAL people having sex.
Of course both shouldn’t be seen by minors and idk why some people reply to you as if you said yaoi was totally okay for a young audience 1 reply
they're both explicit content and both should not be shown to underaged kids, only difference is one is fictional and the other is real, yaoi is kind of a broad subject tho, like there are yaois that are mostly plot and doesn't have a lot of smut, and yaois that are just straight up smut or porn, so maybe specify which yaoi they're talking about 1 reply
idk imo they're the same. at least as far as exposing explicit content to underage goes. and someone sharing porn on this site? this site that's full of explicit content? it make sense it's not out of place(?) lmao. so yeah, if you're underage just ignore. we can't control what people share here. protect yourself. 1 reply
porn w real people is worse than yaoi.
that was ur point and u are right. idk why ppl can’t simply read what u are stating instead of jumping through hoops and making up shit u didn’t even say.
can yaoi rapeslop be damaging to read? yes. u didn’t say anywhere that it isn’t or is, yet ppl are assuming one answer already.

If the yaoi you're reading is featuring two guys fucking and rolling in the sheets for most of the story, then it's porn by all effects. When they sell them in libraries, they got a red dot sticker on purpose because it's considered +18 content. Just because it's a different format, it doesn't make it "less porn". If you think otherwise then you ar...... reply
Istg whenever you yoai ADDICTS wanna seem better then porn watchers you always bring up the exploitation as if we all don’t know this and many are actively protesting against it. Moreover the most popular porn stars people frequently watch normally aren’t even the ones being exploited but the ones exploiting so Mackenzie if you really really ca...... 3 reply
Yaoi is a genre, and it can absolutely contain explicit stories and smut. The site we’re using has even featured very graphic smut stories on the front page, so I don’t think it’s entirely fair to act as though sexual content and minors somehow only become an issue when it’s literal porn, I mean a few weeks ago there was a story on the fron...... reply
If ur reading two men fuck each other it’s porn. There’s all kinds of porn too, would you watch hentai and say it’s not porn because it’s not two real people?? Would you show that to minors because it’s fictional characters fucking with a plot?? Sounds awfully similar to yaoi….Also yaoi has that same affect on addictions or do you not s...... 2 reply
