Question page 2435 (50142)

i want to know why people mistake yaoi as gay thing they don t Represent gay people i am straight female and i liked yaoi becouse it only anime boy romance i want to say that yaoi represent anime and no way in real life i hate when people say that yaoi or bl is gay thing i noticed that there a lot of toxic people ship everything in anime and ruined animes like attack on titan and My Hero Academia....and Black Butler is good anime but those crazy bitch say that it yaoi and ship between main mc i can t say anything about this anime without other people telling me that this anime is gay i tried making them understand that anime is not related to gay ship and many other animes .....etc and they say that yaoi is real life thing as they mix between anime and real life and again i only want to discuss this problem (●￣(ｴ)￣●)

OK, to be able to answer this question myself we must go back in time a little. When i was 5 i was molested by a guy so reading normal straight romance manga/anime reminds me of being molested. But when i read yaoi it doesn't reminds me of it and i'm able to feel that pleasure (not the horny lewd pleasure ⁄(⁄ ⁄·⁄ω⁄·⁄ ⁄)⁄ ) when reading romance mangas. I guess that's my reason(?)

I know most of the people use line or discord but here in Brazil whatsapp is very popular

Just to know some peeps here, i am 14 years old female and i live in indonesia around South Jakarta

I am (●'◡'●)ﾉ
I started learning about this world when I was 13 and I am now 27. Still figuring out how to open up about this side of me ┑(￣Д ￣)┍

I moved to a different country to study, before that I had school friends, whom i’m still close with to this day. But in uni, I couldn’t make a single “real” friend there, all the people that I’ve met were acquaintances. I’m quite by nature and I really treasure my alone time so I don’t mind it much when I’m alone. but there is pressure from my family’s side about not having friends in university and how I’ve lived my uni life pretty much alone. I don’t really regret it and I’ve always believed and still believe in the saying “quality over quantity”. I’m graduation soon and i’m afraid that I’ll be judged over not making new friends. Sorry for the rant but what do you guys think?

For me I'd like to drag people from places that they think they can't get out off.Im very selfish cause you might say but they never asked for your help,but I think that people need people so if we don't do something who's gonna do it? I guess it's because once I saw a person who needed help but no one, including myself, had the courage to step out and help,but when time passed and I saw that someone fell on the ground and how 3 people rushed to help the man up as I asked if he was okay while my friend picked up he's cigarettes box.
It's a simple but a complex question: what do you want to do that satisfies you,and only you and you don't expect any reward for it, something that is purely based on your own personal fulfilment.

i am actually trying to learn korean haha :-;
but i tend to be quite lazy )):

A guy asked me why i liked yaoi since im a straight female so i should like hentai/ecchi which has hetero rlships. So i wanna ask how many of u out there watch hentai? Do you like it?

Personally I find hentai too rapey but yaoi has a lot of rape too so im like (´・ω・`)???

A lot of fudanshi's have been asking fujoshi's why we like yaoi. I'm wondering if you think we shouldn't.

I've always liked yaoi. Even before I knew what yaoi was I shipped. I'd like to blame shows like boy meets world, scrubs and all other depictions of perfect bromances for making me realize I enjoyed this but honestly I probably would have come to it without them anyway. I love gay romances in films and tv shows. It warms my heart that these stories are now being told so much more. As a black woman I know how necessary representation is. Seeing this makes me feel like the world is becoming a better place.

I think the LGBTQ community is wonderful and I have always considered myself an ally. Truthfully, I don't always know where and if I fit into it (I'm a 2 on the kinsey scale if anyone thinks it's relevant). The safe spaces that the gay community has formed always made me feel safe too (not to mention they can be so much fun, the gay pride parade is my summertime highlight and I love gay bars, dancing without being groped is a great feeling). So even if I'm not really welcome it's still something I'd want to protect.

Basically I'd much rather be a good ally than a consumer. So do you think preferring yaoi over shojo or yuri is wrong? Is it inherently damaging to the gay community? Should I stop? I'd like honest opinions so feel free to comment on anything I've said. Also I understand you guys won't be able to represent the entire community here so personal opinions are welcome.

Which kpop groups or solo artists did you unstan or stop being a fan of and why?



For me, I stanned Wanna One members since predebut (pd101s2) but after they disbanded, their contract ended, and went solo, I couldnt stan all of them at once, though I still love them. BTS comes next. Coz of the huge toxic fandom, not surprising right. As a multifan, it pains me to see co-armys bashing and spreading hate on the groups i also am a fan of. im gonna say it, BEING AN ARMY IS NOT SOMETHING I COULD BE PROUD OF ANYMORE. Its actually embarassing to admit youre one, coz that means youre part of the most toxic fandom in kpop industry. Second reason why I officially unstan them is the CHANGE. Back in 2014, they are all about hip hop and swag and cool choreographies. It's like the BTS that I liked back then isnt there anymore.

everyone has a fear. whether it's big or small, it has a huge meaning and impact on/to a person

fear does scary things to a person. even if someone acts strong or shows no emotions, something that they fear can turn them into someone else in one's eyes

there's that... myth you could call it, that like how the birthmarks we have received since birth could be the scar or the reason we have died in our past lives, just like our biggest phobias/ fears are because of what had happened to us or how we died in our past lives.

i find it really interesting that such ideas were thought of and spread, believed and thought so thoroughly of by many.

one of my biggest fears is the dark. it sounds so simple and anyone could think it is stupid. i once read somewhere:

"people fear the darkness because they do not know what lurks in the shadows."

and i feel like i can relate to that completely, not being able to see what is in front or behind me or beside me, it's just scary.

i also have a fear of clustered holes, or as some of you may have heard of- trypophobia: an aversion to the sight of irregular patterns or clusters of small holes, or bumps. it's not like all holes make me so scared that when i see one i scream and run away. it's only certain patterns and images make me feel repulsive, disgusted.

so what's a phobia or fear of yours, i would really like to know and see who else can also relate to yours! maybe your causes or reason are similar!!

I was just curious as to what stories everyone wanted to see on here since im thinking of possibly doing some translating. I wanted a good idea of what I SHOULD translate first though.

I read a ton of yaoi all the time, and I enjoy it a lot, but I don't really consider myself a fujoshi. I think it's mainly because I never ship any characters together. I understand why people do ship characters, but personally I don't have any emotional appeal to ships. I read yaoi mainly out of boredom like for entertainment, so I only get emotionally invested in the story like half of the time so I never really care about ships or who ends up together in a story. I just read to see how the author decides to develop the story and who they favor at the end.

Hey! Anyone there from France ? We could create a discord and talk there easily :)

Being a part of the LGBT community, what's the most
hurtful thing someone said to you?

Just to share, I'm gay and I've been called "disgusting" straight to my face. Someone even told me "If you don't change, you'll end up alone someday". . . He even called me a faggot.. It's not for you to say if I'll end up alone someday. You don't have an idea how much I've been through for you tell me those things. And if I end up being alone someday, I'll gladly accept that path. I'm ready for that possibility. So don't remind me of that, because I've already thought of it a hundred times even before you did. My life will continue being a story of bravery. Yes. I still keep getting hurt by those words everytime a person say that to my face. To be called a "disgusting faggot" who'll end up being alone someday. Who'll end up being left. Those words still make my breathing slower everytime I hear them. But, you're just another one of those people. And not just another one of you could waver this courage down. This "faggot" is a resilient fuck, who'll slap you with you're stupid judgements.

Hi! I have never done this before, but seriously now I am kind of depressed I had one little beautiful female guinea pig and she died some days ago, I just didn't see that coming, I seriously loved that guinea pig, she was my everything, she had a partner and died like 10 day after giving birth to 3 little guinea pigs, but everything I did was for her, I bought her a partber so she wouldn't be alone, I built her the biggest cage I could for her, and now she is gone. I have no idea what to do, I blame myself since I just thought she was kinda weird the night before she died, and I don't know what to do with the babies and her partner, I am just thinking about giving them all in adoption, I like them all but she was my everything. So just looking for advice, please

hello everyone I'm currently a hs student living in the states and I would love to make friends with ppl who love reading manga as much as I do pls add me for any gc or friendly conversation

line: xianholic

insta: holic.x

Anyone from Sydney, Australia
LOL this is like super weird but most of the group chats I'm in always seem to die down and like it would be nice to make some long-term friends. So if anyone is willing to get together in a small group for some coffee and chat (preferably about yaoi lol, not sure if appropriate but live life) with a 20F it would be nice.

Or if there are like some cool active group charts or discord groups people can recommend me that would be amazing.

Criteria:
- preferably human, will accept small fluffy animals
- not a murderer
- is ok with super awkwardness from me

Thanks
