I think alomst everyone knows it. For me, it's not really embarrasing. Everyone has their own taste. But my friends don't read Yaoi or other manga, it makes me sad. I can't talk about things I read bevause it disguist them. They just know it. My family any boyftriend know too and the don't have problem with it.

Thank god no ! No one knows. Once my mom opened my package and saw the bl manga I bought, I always buy bl with "safe" covers (no way in hell I would buy a sexual one) but she kinda understood and said nothing.
She knows quite a few real gay people so she wouldn't really mind. But supporting real LGBT people and reading fictional stories about them...... reply
I had a friend that knew that I love yaoi.
My mom saw my FB post, a picture of Akise Aru and Yuuki (from Mirai Nikki) kissing, and she told me to delete it right away
I've been planning to study abroad in Japan, so I can buy yaoi as many as I want and put them anywhere since I will be all alone ...though it will be a new problem if I have to go ...... 1 reply
When you're spending too much time reading Yaoi that you realized that it's already 2 in the morning. ╮( ̄▽ ̄)╭ Also, when you're searching hardcore, gore, etc kind of thing. So, yeah... reply
My friends and family know, my friends know because we were all reading it before we meet. My family knows because they walk in on me when I was reading 10 count and it was on a sex scene, it was so horrible after that.
╥﹏╥ and it took them a while not to really care I was reading it ╮( ̄▽ ̄)╭ 1 reply
My elementary and high school classmates know. Now that I'm in uni, no one knows but this one classmate who randomly told me how awesome yaoi is lol. reply
Everyone I'm close to knows. I talk about it with my mom, my best friend, and my boyfriend. ٩(๑❛ᴗ❛๑)۶ I have the most fun talking about it with my boyfriend because the way he reacts to the stories is always funny and leads to a good conversation. reply
Nope. No one knows.
However, if I had read yaoi earlier during my elementary school days, I would of got along with this girl who loooooved yaoi; she was mega obsessed with it. She told me that she would give me pictures of BL and smutty BL mangas, etc.. for my birthday, but she knew that I wouldn't like it as a present, considering that I didn't r...... reply
My friend kinda knows that I read it, but she doesn't really understand what yaoi is. I try to keep it a secret, but sometimes I share the art with my friends. 1 reply
None know.
And that due to the type of yaoi I read.
One friend might have an idea that I read one or two books but that's it.
I keep it under wraps for several reasons
1. It's MY guilty pleasure... I love it and I want to keep it to myself.
2. None of my friends like it (as far as i know) - but if they did we wouldn't be the type to ship people to...... reply
it's kind of hard to choose ya know?
for me it used to be spiders and all the insects actually and then my worst fear became turning into my mother or worse my aunt and then it became my mom finding out about me reading yaoi and then it was never being able to leave my parents house and get my own apartment which i'm still afraid of even now and th...... reply
I am afraid of hole, void, and most of all being rejected by people or people finding me disgusting or weird. I always end up alone afraid of being rejected. reply
My mom and friends know. My mom accidentally tumbled upon a pretty smutty yaoi (Kuroneko Kareshi :-p) after I fell asleep reading it on my phone. She didn't get mad, just questioned me about it lol. We later strengthened our bond by watching Death Note and we both shipped Light x L :-). My dad doesn't know, but he's not homophobic or dismissive of ...... reply
My mom was in the room with me watching Junjou Romantica 2 in our big living room tv screen. She asked me if they were gay lol. My grandma sneakily once hid to see what I didn't want her to see, I was watching the first season Junjou Egoist episodes (the smutty part was on -__-''') Also once I was showing to both of them my fashion shoot results on...... reply
My cousin and my brother know for sure. My best friend might know, we talk about a bunch of nothing, so I don't know if it ever came up. I don't tell my mom because she's very annoying and prejudice when it comes to the topic of homosexuals. But I have physical copies of yaoi manga in my bookcase so people are bound to know, but they're mixed in wi...... reply
I'm afraid of needles, lost all I have in life that makes me happy and I'm afraid to trust people, because I don't want them to betray me. (Sad story) reply
'Things' are your daily life experiences by which you get to know the world around you. Tell others about the things you did, may it be cool, sad, crazy or funny. You can also find things that you might want to do and a friend to do it with!
