I really think that this varies from person to person. I remember reading my first explicit manga at around age 9 or 10. It was more of a shoujo than a hentai but there was still some pretty steamy stuff. By that age, I already had a general idea of what sex was because I found my older cousin's stash of porn (but that's a totally different story h......   reply

90% of the yaoi mangas depict unhealthy relationships and wrong practices. also its so wrong for someone to learn about lgbt+ people from these mangas because 99% of the time theyre extremely transphobic,biphobic and believe it or not homophobic. it makes people fetishize and objectify gay people soo much. i know it because 3 of my close friends do......   3 reply

I am a mother to 3 (ages 6,8,11). I am obsessed with yaoi and my kids know i enjoy reading manga where boys kiss boys. But as a mother, i don't think i would allow my oldest to view such material. Although i don't think i will hold him off on these until 18, but 11 is too young. I don't understand kids now who are like 12 watching hentai, yaoi and ......   2 reply

Well, there are surprisingly a lot of people that started reading yaoi and other adult stuff when they were around 12 years old. So I think it's fine for those under 18 to read sexuall materials. As long as you know right from wrong and real from unreal, and keep it separate from your real life.   2 reply

I think it's only ok when you are 14,15 and so on.   reply

Thanks for all the responses! I have read through and here are my general replies to some of the main counterpoints i heard (in case you want to hear them): - if you think that some kids can't handle something at a young age, or that when you're below 18 you should keep you're innocence or 'only learn the right things' then i would object. people e......   2 reply

I agree that it should be okay to be more open about these kinds of stuff. It's like, why make porn a secret when a lot of people know about it? It's probably a lot better to make the kids more aware about what shit they're watching. I don't think it's really unavoidable, getting the kids to watch/read porn. During the hormonal period, you get cu......   1 reply

I have thought about it. In my opinion, I think that's it's alright for pornographic content to be screened. Because it's all up to the individual. If he/she's curious about sex, then those age restrictions are easy enough to get through. But as there might be some who do not want to know about it too early since they mind rules (not that it's bad)......   1 reply

I see no reason to show kids sexually explicit content such as yaoi and yuri. Those genres are pretty much porn and who in their right mind would show a child porn? Besides, yaoi and yuri mangas often display unhealthy relationships and notions about love. Like someone else in this thread already mentioned, yaoi and yuri are so unrealistic that the......   1 reply

I find it a bit awkward that 11 and 12 year olds are on here reading porn. I didn't start reading yaoi until I was 18/19, which was a decade ago. The thought of kids not much older than my niece reading this stuff...real squicky. In regards to whether it should be okay or not, I would lean toward "not". It's not that sex should be shameful or anyt......   3 reply

* Oops! first i accidently posted this as an answer to Arilas answer! I really don't think that younger people can learn a lot of things about sex when reading those kinds of things. Because honestly yaoi or yuri or ecchi or smut is incredibly unrealistic (people coming an abnormal amount of times, selflubrication, being u......   reply

I'm not sure if this is really an answer to it but when I was like really little I was molested by my uncle. I don't know if it was just that but I've been told that compared to most of the teenage people around me and maybe some adults I'm quite mature for my age. I don't really remember when I got into anime or yaoi but besides normal reading it ......   1 reply

Let's see, I was in middle school 8 grade back then so I was 15 I believe (?). I am not sure. The first Yaoi I read was called Aishuu by Manase sensei. http://www.mangago.me/read-manga/aishuu/ The story at first make me feel weird since it wasn't the one that I was looking for at that time, however after a couple pages to the manga and was was hoo......   1 reply

around 16 i think? some girl at school recommended me Junjou romantica (the anime) my first ever yaoi. I was weirded out at first of course but i really enjoyed the anime. It was funny. I found out there was a manga so i read that one and was so surprised at the detailed sex scenes. Got hooked from then on XD   5 reply

I thought it was weird :))) bc it also is my first Yaoi. I had never imagined about any genres like that would exist.   reply

I think it was mila superstar, Kickers, cap. Tsubasa and sailermoon.   reply

I don't understand why I would pay myself to be unhappy... Reading yaoi is like taking an injection of pure joy. For some people, swimming or spending time with family = ultimate happiness. For me, I read yaoi and body automatically reacts. I look like a total creeper as I read it because my face subconsciously turns my smile on full wattage and I ......   reply

i've told my cousins about it. the girls. but they don't like it. though one is showing interest on it since she has a friends who likes BL too. yaoi is totally not just gay porn. i mean for me, okay?, for me porn is something that is all sex and no story just sex that is the story all you see is that scene literally. i took a course full of men , ......   reply
