49 year old female living in Washington state. Half Japanese, straight, married, two adult kids at home and both going to college. Daughter is 18, son is 22. After being a stay-at-home mom and homeschooling family, last year I finally went back to work full time as an administrative assistant for a large corporation. Kids know I read yaoi, husba......   7 reply

I prefer most of the stories in yaoi. Yes, there are a lot of them with ridiculous plots that are nothing close to real life, and with characters I don't like, but there are some with great depth and heart and humor. In those, the sex is just a plus on the side. I stopped reading shoujo/ecchi manga because the female and male characters and situati......   reply

My lock screen is my 19 yo daughter at her college graduation. The both of us would be freaking out pretty seriously in the beginning, but after that we'd probably calm down and start talking about boys, and what she wants to do about her job search. We'd sit together and I would probably have to tickle her hair to keep her anxiety in check.   1 reply

Short. My second and third choices are at the end of this post. I'll be 50 next year, my kids are in college and will soon be on their own. I've lived over half my life already, and it went by in a flash. I doubt I'll live another 50 years, though I don't think I'd mind living to be 100. I want to be with my husband and kids and grandkids, to show......   1 reply

Oh, YES. I'm a 48 yo fujoshi who reads yaoi, spent my early years in Japan so I love anime and all things Japanese, I love horror movies, sci-fi, fantasy, and Donatello from the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. Now go back 10 years to when my kids (now 18 & 22) were in karate and other home school activities. Me. In the middle of all those karate and......   1 reply

I'm half Japanese and have family over there. Was there over a year ago in September 2015 with my then 16 yo daughter. It was easy for us because we stayed with family and everything was taken care of for us, but I do have a recommendation. If you aren't fluent in Japanese and you have a smart phone, I suggest purchasing a dictionary app. I have......   reply

You might already know this one, but just in case. I call this the "moody pillar" manga. Kouun No Rihatsushi. http://www.mangago.me/read-manga/kouun_no_rihatsushi/   reply

All very good answers here. I agree, but will add mine. I'm 49, and I can't believe it because I still feel like I'm in my 20s inside! My suggestions are things that I wish I had done more of myself: I will repeat the one about basically loving yourself no matter what. Always keep your self esteem high, and don't let others dictate to you what ......   1 reply

My nickname is Mom   reply

I was 15, with a guy in my neighborhood that I had a crush on, but he wasn't interested in any kind of relationship - so I felt used after. I also didn't have any adult role models I looked up to, so I think I was being careless and acting out a bit. I wish I had waited longer. I think young people are so influenced by media into thinking that se......   reply

Yep, but probably for a different reason. I actually came across a shoujo/smut manga at the local library (surprise! I bet they didn't know it had sex in it). Curiosity led me to online scanlations and then to yaoi. In shoujo, the female mc's for the most part are weak, shy, crying, virgin babies who fall for super good looking guys who are any......   reply

First thing I would do is check out my package. Then test it out (masturbation). Then head on out to the gay district to use it on some cute guy, preferably after a round of oral.   1 reply

My first anime(s) were GeGeGe no Kitaro, Minashigo Hachi, Mahou Tsukai Sally, Ogon Batto, just to name a few. Japanese anime shows were my Saturday morning cartoons when I was 4-5 years old, early 1970's in Yokohama Japan.   reply
