Not big on yuri, actually.  Its kinda funny how I like yaoi but not yuri, but its the truth, so Shoujo-Ai.  The only yuri I've ever read wasn't even really yuri, because one of the girls was Ranma, who is, in fact, a guy most of the time, so...yeah.

What's the difference between Shojo Ai/Shonen Ai and Yuri and Yaoi? They're both gay relationships...

Yaoi and yuri are gay porn (yaoi being male/male and yuri being female/female), whereas shoujo- and shounen-ai are more 'innocent', so to speak. The latter two literary mean 'girl love' and 'boy love', respectively.

Reflected behind my closed eyelids is a sweet field. Dauntless, I embrace you lovingly. I am together with you.

Out of love, I forge a pact with you. Like a breath, the wind will envelop you. You and I will be together wherever we go.

xD Actually, the lesbian couple from Sailor Moon wasn't Saturn and Neptune, but Uranus and Neptune, a.k.a. Haruka and Michiru. (Though there is a rather lot of Saturn slash.) And, of course, Utena and Anthy from Revolutionary Girl Utena. I <3 Utena/Anthy. There's also a great series called Maria-sama ga Miteru, or The Virgin Mary is Watching. I could keep listing for hours. There are actually quite a lot of yuri/shoujo-ai series, but they just aren't extremely popular; they're kind of a niche market, even within the fan community (which is itself a niche market). And, of course, there is more yaoi/shounen-ai, because that's what the fangirls want.

... Can we talk about Shounen-Ai too besides Yuri/Shojo-Ai? I seem to favor only boy love since I haven't seen any girl love besides Sakura/Tomoyo.

sorry ^^U... *feels little*
it just that its being a long time since i watched sailor moon and i cant remember names right now  ^^

acording to cute_me-- in the manga the "love" part about tomoyo liking sakura is more obvious there

If you want to talk shounen-ai, go to the shounen-ai thread here.

It's alright. And I've not seen the anime of CCS, but I've heard the same thing. It was fairly obvious in the manga, though.

Le sigh. There's just not enough female/female love in the world.
