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 )┛
You're partly correct. Posting a direct link to pornography in a public comment section is different from someone reading BL/yaoi. The relevant issue isn't sexual content = sexual content; it's where it's being posted, and whether people who shouldn't be exposed to it can encounter it.
Yaoi and literal pornography aren't identical. But yaoi covers...... reply
