What's your first experience in discovering yaoi?
Well, I came across yaoi while in either 5th or 6th grade (age 11). I was trying to see what male anatomy was like since all I ever did at the time was just draw females. So, I wanted to draw other things too. I was looking at some webtoon on webtoon/.com for ideas and I stumbled across a promotion for another webcomic that was gay. I was curious so I looked through it.
Also, at the time I didn't know being gay was considered to be "not accepted" and I also had a small idea of what 2 people fucking was like. (lmfao i had no idea how i knew but i just did) AND I didn't know people could actually be gay.
So, somehow I wasn't so fazed as other people might be. I don't know. It was strange experience for me. Yaoi didn't technically made me uncomfortable because I knew damn well some of this shit just don't happen in real life. But from there on, I kinda just got more curious. Well, here I am on this website. Hbu?

They had a section for BL, and I was curious about what it was so I clicked on the first manhwa(Voice of Love) and I really liked it. One...... reply
