i think i was 19/20. i just turned 21 and i feel like i've been reading yaoi forever.
i thank the yaoi gods for blessing my eyes and tainting my soul because that what most of my manga library consists of. reply
I had a porn addiction already when I tried my first yaoi, so by then I was buried in the story to the point where I didn't really "react" — I just plowed through and devoured every panel with zeal. =v=; reply
My first anime was Pokemon I think. Pokemon, Digimon, and Sailor Moon on the rare times I could catch it. After that, I think the first anime where I KNEW it was anime was... Beyblade maybe? Which I picked up at the same time as Inuyasha thereabouts.
My first manga that I ever actually made the effort to LEARN how to read (because reading backw...... reply
A young 17, if I remember right. Junjou Romantica was coming out with the first season of the anime, and I told my conservative, sheltered Christian self over and over again that no matter HOW interesting the storyline was, the answer was "no."
Well. Look how well that turned out. 2 reply
20 year old white American female, living in Atlanta in the US. I found yaoi through watching anime, can't remember which ones. I think I like the way Japanese portray relationships between two men better than straight relationships. I find that there's this idea of the Japanese ideal girl being soft-spoken and kind, and in anime when they're not t...... reply
When your gay friends forget to turn off the porn before inviting you in the house, 2D gay sex is pretty tame. Still hot. And I like when it has a good plot. Men, whether they are gay or straight, don’t seem to want plot to ruin their two hour sex scene. 1 reply
Completely straight, middle-aged, married, white woman from Beantown in the US. After years watching anime for three and half decades and working at the Rocky Horror Picture Show off and on for over two decades, the fact that I’ve been reading Yaoi for about twelve years doesn’t really shock my friends and family. It does still slightly bother ...... 5 reply
I am a bisexual teenage girl who loves yaoi. I am Caucasian and live in WA in the U.S. I have been reading this genre for about a year now and I read at least two a day. reply
18 years old, lesbian. I actually was born in Hungary but I live in Germany, Stuttgart. I started reading yaoi in August, one of my friends was just so obsessed with it for more than 3 years now but I was like "Hey.. why is it so good meeh?" and she couldn't explain. But one night I was extremely bored so I thought hey what was the name of your fav...... 1 reply
19 yo white non binary individual. I’m a cosmetologist student in Idaho. I’ve been addicted to yaoi since I was 15. Most of my friends think it’s weird but they love me anyway. reply
26 year old Mexican American male. I am gay. I've been reading since middle school, so at this point it's more of a habit than a hobby. As I've gotten older I find I enjoy fewer series, but the ones I do enjoy I absolutely love. I prefer more realistic stories which aren't excessively dark or fluffy(realistic darkness and fluffiness are ideal), and...... reply
well my first yaoi anime was Sekaiichi Hatsukoi and Junjou Romantica. if i remember correctly nothing TOO graphic happened there.
i forgot my first explicit/detailed yaoi manga, whether or not it had smutty scenes, i think i was just shocked speechless XD. A whole new world appeared before me and now its impossible to turn back (⊙…⊙ )

I felt utter awe and fascination, such a difference between the beautiful art, the innocence of the uke (as Ukes usually are) , perversion of the story and the detailed scenes... So many contradictions but a really beautiful outcome.... If you're wondering what my first Yaoi was, it was "Brother x Brother".... not really first time material but I ...... reply
