What's your take on this topic? I actually love reading manga or watching anime shows revolved around yaoi or shonen ai (I prefer yaoi though). I also like reading yaoi fanfiction, but it's hard to find some good fanfics with good pairings.

umm, before I respond further, I want to ask something. .
the yaoi you referring is a fanservice or the 'other' one?

They are both fan services and both involve 'boy love'. Yaoi is more sexually explicit than shounen ai. Shounen ai is less explicit; it usually involves kissing, holding hands, or even hugging

I absolutely love yaoi, and actually went through a minor 'have to watch tonnes of yaoi or else' phase this week. I just adore the relationships and the couplings, and the lack of randomly female body parts being on screen all the time lol! I shall admit to liking both kinds of yaoi, though the latter is something I have found rather hard to track down, the former is easy to find though and very enjoyable when in a full series (I really enjoyed Loveless and DNAngel). I don't usually read fanfics though because my attention span completely sucks, so I would have to have it in book form and as of yet I haven't come across it in local stores lol! But overall yea, I can safely say that I adore yaoi, and it is nice to come across someone else who does as well :o)

Yeah, I've been into yaoi for a couple years now. It's nice to meet another yaoi fan.

umm...well for me i read yaoi and shounen ai but it's really a secret that i'm into those things cause its scary if my parents found out(I be dead by now..) and maybe my siblings or other people.

So it's quite nice talking to people who have same interest (Oh but Im also into other types of manga like seinen or shounen, also shoujo and the bloody action ones).But meeting boys who like those things is actually rare. Best thing to do is shout yourself out heheheh....Banzai!!!Fangirl..!!Banzai!!! 2x but since my interest is secret I innerly cheer for me...heheheh

Manga Yaoi and Anime Yaoi are both very nice in their own way. It's very interesting to read Yaoi manga because you can really get into the story. However, Yaoi anime is very exciting! Mainly because the characters can be heard and can move. i can't tell my folks about this though, they might have a heart attack, ahahaha! About fanfics, I love love love love to read fanfiction too. Anime/Manga fanfiction made by other people can give you some idea on how the fans want these characters to act. I'm not a fan of horror or tragedy fictions though, i prefer the lovey dovey type, I'm a cornball, I know! Especially humour. Love it.

So that's it. Yaoi of any type is still the BEST.
