If you're a girl, in love with a gay guy, it doesn't matter what you do.
You can't get him to love you. And since I've been in that situation, it gets repeated in
the back of my head, which makes me not to like yaoi/shounen-ai.

Well, that can happen in other situations too. You could be in love with a girl and not have love returned because she isn't into girls. That's just the way things go.
Personally I believe many 'straight' people could fall in love with either a guy or a girl...
Some people are just too stubborn to admit feelings of attraction to the same gender.

And before this thread gets way off track...
YAY! GO KURO/FAI!!!   :lol:

Awwww, Pikari, you mean I can't really be with Fai and Kuro?!
*goes back to sleep to dream*  :inlove:
Well, now... DREAMS are a different story... :lol: (as are RPGs.....)

Aw, Tessaiga, we're not jumping on you. I respect your opinions, I guess my point was, you know an anime character is never going to fall in love with you in the first place (well, except those dreams ^^;; ) whatever their preference, so does it make a difference? *shrugs* Well, I've never been in the situation, so maybe I don't know. o_O;

Too bad if anyone doesn't get that.

Modified: Ah, whatever. You don't have to try to understand anyway. Doesn't matter.
But just don't jump on me for not sharing the same interests as you.
your just saying you don't like a fictional subject because of personal problems.

Of course. But, as I said, it's just hard for me... eh, kind of... It depends... I don't have any problem with Touya/Yuki
(for some reason... O.o'').
*pats* its ok, We ALL like them :D
i'm a Guy (a Straight guy at that) and i just like Shounen-Ai because sometimes it can be so sweet and adorable and cute :D
Yaoi is pretty funny at times too since i know what their talking about/doing and it amuses me! lol

I voted yes!
I'm not a major fan, though. I prefer the tamer stuff. Noything too..[ahem] graphic. I blush too easily, hehe.
But I'm aware of certain couples (like Kuro/Fai Yay!) and support them 100%!!

I voted no. I don't like homosexuality. My sisters ex-best friend is a lesbian, and she tried to make a pass at me. Since then, I don't like them. Also, people used to accuse me of being a lesbian when I was in high school. I wasn't really feminine at that time, but I'm wasn't a lesbian. I was a tomboy, still am, but I won't persuade you to change your opinion. We all have our rights.

Well, I'm pretty happy with the way this vote is going.....twice the number of voters who don't like shonen-ai/yaoi, DO like it! And I hope it stays that way!

I don't know why, but I just can't get enough of that wonderful fluff! (or other more serious stuff...hey! I rhyme!) I just seem to find the storylines more real than ones for straight couples a lot of the time...especially when it comes to fanfiction. Plus, a lot of the shonen-ai/yaoi stories are very angsty, and that kind of plot attracts me.

Hee, I feel like I should be allowed to vote twice in this one!  :lol:
I practically don't pick up a manga or anime unless it's yaoi, or at least
somewhat implied shounen-ai! That's what makes it exciting!
I'm ruined for 'straight' anime and manga. The guys are just so much better.
And we know which two guys I'm talking about...  :D

I am sorry, but I voted NO.  -_-

I don't have anything against them, but I am not used to think about that kind of relationships and I simply prefer happy BOY-GIRL romance.  :greengrin:

I think that is why nature made it that way. Actually it is the same for me if at TRC the pairing for Kurogane is Fay or Tomoyo, so I guess that settles it.  :sweatdrop:

That's cool, everyone has a right to their opinion. :keke:

But I wouldn't actually agree with this one. Have you ever taken a look at nature?
In the animal population, there is plenty of same gender activity and actually some species that are entirely female that reproduce without males. 
But that's getting way off topic.  :D

Yes, I love Yaoi and shounen-ai. It's one of the main and many reasons why I love CLAMP (and Tsubasa) so much... And of course my ultimate ULTIMATE favorite shounen-ai couple is KuroFai. :keke:

I see what you mean, although I meant for humans.  :sweatdrop:

KuroFai pairing is nice, though. But for some strange reason I think that Tomoyo Kurogane is ok too. Even so,I am glad that you respect my

opinion...everybody in this forum is nice!!  :hello2:
