Yaoi/Yuri VS. Straight Couples

[小美ドクロchan]

It doesn't seem that a lot of people are fans of straight anime couples anymore nowadays and well......frankly that disturbs me a bit.:wacko: So I'd like opinions. I myself, think there is nothing more precious and lovely as boyxgirl love. That's how it was meant to be after all, right? Granted, I DO like yaoi and yuri SOMETIMES. But there are only a choice few out of the hundreds of couples I ship that are not boyxgirl.

So let's hear it: What's better to you? Yaoi, (boyxboy) Yuri (girlxgirl) or Straight? (boyxgirl)

[Takatofan1986]

Yaoi. Why? Its hot, and im gay :)

[riyo himura]

either one is acceptable for me.

[FinalFantasyFanatic]

straight is best.

[Sonata]

I like yuri, and once in a while yaoi is okay, but left to my own devices I tend to go for the straight pairs. I'm straight...what do you expect? ^^;

[Angelica's Evil]

I'm straight but find Yaoi/Yuri to be...interesting sometimes! :D

[Buruku]

Well, I'm straight and straight romance is easier for me to relate to, therefore I like it better.

I never got the obsession girls have with Yaoi. o.O

[xxnytr0xx]

Haha im fine with any of the three pairings....

Except I get a little wary around 2 dudes.

As long as they dont go too "over the top" (if ya kno what i mean haha) I'm fine.

Otherwise i could care less about gender. Love is love, and there's nothing more heart-warming than seeing a relasionship develope beautifully, or tragically.

[Kawairashii hikari]

I think straight is the best, of all three... since I am straight

but then at times I think Yaoi is cute!

Like sometimes i read fanfics of SasuxNaru and they make them say the most adorable things to one another. I could care less about Yuri though, I'm not too fond of it, it's okay though, but I like Yaoi better. ^^'

But like i said, straight is totally the best.

[Gizoku]

Either or is fine.

[jewel2sparkle]

I suppose it really doesn't matter to me. I care more about the story/situation they are in overall...

[buhbibutterfly]

it really doesn't matter to me what the gender of the couples are. If the two characters have good chemistry and as long as one of the two people in the relationship doesn't annoy me I would normally not care if its two girls, two guys, or boyxgirl. However, in the fanfiction world i love lots of slash pairings that aren't canon in the actual movie, book, anime, or manga. I'm a big slash/yaoi fan but i'll watch anything really, doesn't matter the gender pairing.

[AnkoMitarashi]

It doesn't matter really. I'm straight and there's nothing wrong with liking yaoi. I personally like it and find it cute. Straight pairings are good too but again still, it doesn't matter. I don't know about yuri though but I don't like it as much as yaoi or straight pairings.It all depends on the story and how the relationship goes. Love is what love is, no matter what gender.

[Knuffle Bunny]

That depends. I am totally against pedophilia types of gay (Loveless, but in general it's a great anime). But i'm totally corrupt when it comes ot hot gay guys. >///< Even when they're not meant to be (Light and L -drools-).
If both men are ugly...ew. x3 GirlxGuy is also cool most of the time. (If the girl isn't one of those innocuous clumsy types << >>)


Gravitation is good...hehe

[CapnJack]

Yuri.

Yeah yeah, I know Im a guy and its expected, but its more then just turn ons and dirty thoughts like some might think. Girl/girl romances at times to me just seem so emotional, deep, and hm.... idk I guess more passionate. I know Yoai out there can have those things too and I agree wholey. But something about in a manga/anime seeing two beautiful girls hold each other or kiss, kinda makes ya want to feel the same way as they do.

Did that make any sense or was that a little too much?:confused: :redface:

[MomijiTMO]

As much as I am a Loveless fan, the Souhi and Ritsuka shoto relationship makes me shiver. I condone these kinds of things but in all honesty would rather not have them ;).

Ermm I would prefer a good story with younger cute couples than older (21+) pairings. I guess my yaoi fascination terminates there and I kind of have to have the bishie thing or I'm not interested. Yaoi pairings like that in -Fake- don't interest me. I guess I find young yaoi couples to be cute and that's it.

I rarely encounter yuri and I'll be honest and admit that it doesn't interest me. If they are the feature of a good story, then I'm in but otherwise I won't read or watch it.

Shoujo ftw! I do have a fair bit in the bag here but must agree that they are pretty much all the same [Thanks Mini]. I think they are easier to relate to and seem to be able to play with my emotions the most.

[.Lovebeat]

In anime, I prefer straight couples, but it's okay if there are some girl x girl/boy x boy couples as long as the anime is good.

[vamppy_lol]

um....i mostly dont care about the gender pairings aslomg as the serise is good (did i spell serise right?) lol um....but thanks to my sis i somehow got into watching strawberry panic! (a yuri) and its funny cute and kinda disterbing in some places....

[CrimsonMoon]

I don't watch anime just for the sake of pairings. It has to have a good story too. Anyway, I prefer straight of course. But I do enjoy yaoi sometimes. But no yuri. For me, it's weird. o.o

[broken-shadow]

I think that all three are great. I'm a total romantic, but love isn't about gender, it's about LOVE.

[Hideki Motosuwa.]

I wouldn't care, just so long as the anime/manga is good! I'm straight, but wouldn't care if an anime/manga had yaoi or yuri themes in it!:closedeye

[Sachiko Sake]

They are all fine but I only like watching straight couples.

[lightyagami]

Stupid fangirls with there yaoi pairings:wacko::wacko::wacko::wacko::wacko:.

I vote for yuri (Nagisa+Shizuma from strawberry panic!)

[TheCruelDolly]

im straight and i think i like straight couples the best ^^ but somehow yaoi stories are more interesting, better and im for yaoi too n.n

[onigiri princess]

straight fits perfectly with story ^-----^, i dunno I'm not a big yaoi and yuri fan, just so fans know that, i just don't mind them according to the story, other than that i really like straight couples for my liking xD

[Leorina]

I don't think it's the general idea of a boy with a boy or a girl with a girl that people like. It's all in the character's actions with the "significant other" that people truly enjoy.
I love seeing characters that are real, if you know what I mean. They argue and have their off days; they love and smile; they cry and feel pain. It doesn't matter to me if they're one way or another: just as long as I got my money's worth out of buying the manga or anime.
Oh, the miserlyness of me!

[Ultra Dull]

BoyxBoy. Mhmm.

[nekogrl]

I have no problem with people who are gay or bi so I'm fine with both of them. I'm sure it would make the story more interesting! ;3

I've only watched anime with straight couples so far...and I've liked the romance part so I like straight couples, also.

[Hideki Motosuwa.]

Actually, I do love Yuri scenes!!!!:laugh: (I know, typical of men right?)

[Arcxcia]

Yaoi are totally CUTE!!!
I just love yaoi!

[Akihiko Yamamoto Hozagaki]

This is actually quite a difficult question. First of all, I have no interest in yuri. Nope, it does nothing for me. However, I still respect yuri fans. Now, I prefer yaoi couples. But wait! I can explain. Honestly, I've never understood why girls (yes, I know plenty of men that like yaoi, but I need to specifiy girls right now) like yaoi either, and I'm a fan girl myself. But this is why I prefer it:

I'm naturally a hopeless romantic. I love bishie boys and I just can't get enough of them. But I just can't stand when the typical shoujo girl pops into the story and steals his heart. It makes me wish I was the girl, thus making "competition". I know you can't be competitive with a fantasy character, but the intention is there. A good example is Light from Death Note. He never really loved Misa, but she loved him so that's close enough. I love Light myself, so it pisses me off to see a character that I hate flirt with him. But if it was L, who I also happen to like, it would be a completely different story. I wouldn't feel as competitive because L is another man. I can't ever be a man, so I just give up. I know that really makes no sense, but seeing two characters I find attractive together is much more entertaining than with a girl I dislike.

Now, I don't like Yoru or Ran (Sukisyo) in that way, but I like seeing them together. That's because Sukisyo is a shounen-ai, so of course I'm going to support that pairing. But why do I still not support Mizuki and Sano (Hana-Kimi)? I honestly don't know o_o. Perhaps it's because I'm bored of straight pairings.

[小美ドクロchan]

I think all us girls can relate to that, yes. XD But I look at it this way: I WANT my favorite guy to be happy. And if being with [insert female character name here] makes him happy, then so be it! ^_^

BUT....if the guy ALSO hates it when the girl flirts with him, it's a different story. This is why I hate TakutoxMeroko so much. It's obvious that she annoys the HECK outta him....:glare:

That girl from Black Cat who flirts with Train is annoying too. I don't like her already and I've only seen two episodes. >.>

Oh you mean the chick that breaths fire XD? I don't like her either <_<;.

You do have a point, but that's WHY I hate it. It's no fair that some chick can win over MY bishie's heart XD! Again, I know that makes no sense, but if you think of it in a literal way I'm sure it'd be easier to understand. I mean, what girl wants their crush's heart to be stolen XD?

[小美ドクロchan]

Nobody! XD But...still.....eh...I dunno. If I adore both characters, it works.

Ah, I found out that girl's name is Saya. Lol she might be a good singer but god, she's annoying when she opens her mouth any other time. XD

[Memento Mori]

Love is love, no matter what the pairing may be. I don't care if a guy dates a guy, their sexuality shouldn't lessen the intensity of the romance just because they aren't straight.

So I don't care, as long as it's not some dumb crack pairing.

[Antares]

I don't care if it's yaoi, yuri or straight, I just ask for a good story, that's all.

[Kyuubi Naruto]

Well, even though I'm straight, I support both. I have a half sister who's a lesbian, and I dont find anything wrong with her. In fact, she's probably the coolest person in the world! :D

Also, I know I'll sound stupid saying this, but can somebody tell me exactly what is Yuri?

[Akihiko Yamamoto Hozagaki]

It's not a stupid question, don't worry. Yuri is relationships between two women.

[Spiffy!]

I'm a bit wary around 2 girl stuff.

I like straight couples the best, but I don't shy away from yaoi every now and then. xD

[Kuitchi]

Yaoi because i'm just like Crazy Fun Girl.:D

[Arcxcia]

Yaoi because i'm just like Crazy Fun Girl.:D

O... you like yaoi. That's good!

[clowangel]

I like hot men. I think that's obvious seeing as I'm a straight female. So naturally, I think the idea of two hot men going together is hot. I'm all for the yaoi! I mean, I like reading/watching straight couple anime/manga, but overall, I prefer malexmale. As for fanfiction, I've totally gotten bored of straight pairings.

But just wondering, do you mean mean shounen-ai and shoujo-ai? People seem to mix up shounen-ai with yaoi and shoujo-ai with yuri. Just so you know, yaoi and yuri are both sexually explicit stuff. Meanwhile shounen-ai is malexmale love and shoujo-ai is femalexfemale love. Just had to clear that up.

[LonlyShinobi]

Straight or yuri.....mostly cause its funny how the couples act and get all shy around eachother sometimes. makes me smile to see them.

Yaoi....it can live, but at the same tme its just not my cup of coffee - so to speak.

[omniking3]

Personally, I liek straight couples. 97% of the time I liek straight couples. Other 3% is Yuri. No Yaoi for me! Besides...Yuri is only for "those times" *wink*

Ok, lemme revise that to about 70% and 30%...

[小美ドクロchan]

Ah I think that's just because yaoi and yuri are better-known terms and easier to type.^^; I do that too even though I know the difference. But if I say "shounen-ai" a lot of times people don't know what I'm talking about. Too Japanese I guess. XD

[Miss Tsukkii]

Ah I think that's just because yaoi and yuri are better-known terms

I agree, a lot of people doesn't know the difference between shoujo-ai/shounen-ai and yuri/yaoi, but oh well >.>

As for me, I don't care, as long as it's a good anime/manga. That means, good story, good artwork, not too annoying characters... etc. But I have to admit I'm a little more into yuri (Or should I say, Shoujo-ai, I don't watch too explicit stuff >.>) just because, well I find it cute, two girls togheter.

[kaori_tenshi]

I'm straight but I like Yaoi or Shounen-Ai romances better, only because after awhile I'm sick of the girl/boy romance story blah...boring after awhile. Plus yaoi storylines always amuse me! xD But I still love the old' straight girl/boy pairings.

Gravitation is a great shounen-ai anime and manga ^^

Yuri...I'm not really a fan of it. Only anime close to anything yuri I watched was Revolution Girl Utena, which had a great story plot ^^!

Me too! Not really a fan of yuri but a big fan of Yaoi! Loveless, Gravitation, Sukisyo and lots more. They are awesome!

[Death God]

Yaoi is the best in my opinion, but I like any coupling with good depth and chemistry. What really annoys me is when people ignore the chemistry between two female characters or two male characters because the characters "aren't gay". Love goes beyond gender, people. If you fall in love with someone, it's because you love their personality, not because they're "hot". Unless, of course, you're extremely shallow and don't really understand love.

I tend to like canon things, or at least ship pairings that are well-rooted in canon. Nevermind the fact they're yaoi pairings in shounen anime/manga. Heh, what can I say? The male characters are much rounder and hold much stronger bonds with each other than any female. But, of course, that's up to interpretation.


But just wondering, do you mean mean shounen-ai and shoujo-ai? People seem to mix up shounen-ai with yaoi and shoujo-ai with yuri. Just so you know, yaoi and yuri are both sexually explicit stuff. Meanwhile shounen-ai is malexmale love and shoujo-ai is femalexfemale love. Just had to clear that up.

If we want to get technical, shounen-ai is taken as pedophilia in Japan. The real term is Boys Love.

I use yaoi and yuri for the previously stated reasons - it's easier to identify. People use yaoi to describe boyxboy love and not just boyxboy sex nowadays anyway. It's molding into a broader term now, so we don't have to distinguish the difference as much.

[lightyagami]

For a story line? Straight definitley. It feels weird when it's a yuri couple, and i can't really get into the storyline because im too attracted to the women xDDDD. and because im a straight boy i will NEVER watch yaoi, but i can imagine if i were gay/bi, the feeling would be the same.

But when im umm... you know..:rolleyes: watching H anime:p i like yuri :laugh::unsure:

I know a couple straight boys who watch yaoi :/. I've watched yuri too, and I'm completely straight. I like all stories to have a plot, yuri, yaoi, or straight. Except yaoi PWP's, but they're meant to be like that XD!

I really don't like hentai, to be honest. Not as entertainment, at least. I mean, if you want something to masturbate to, then hentai works. But, honestly, it's all very depthless. The reason I tend to like yaoi and yuri more is because they depict love more than lust. But, I suppose that's just my helpless romantic side.

LxLight and SasuNaru all the way. :3

[blackrosetwilight]

love is love doesnt matter the gender. Oh and Mr/Ms. Death God there are some hentai that do have some depth to them you just need to look harder but since your only 14 I cant give you any suggestion since Im a resposible adult. Maybe in four years if Im still on I'll give them to you.

A responsible adult, huh? Okay, I see what you're saying. However, I disagree. I'm pretty sure if anyone under eighteen can come in here and talk about yaoi and know what it's about, they surely won't be too phased by hentai. I'm not saying that you should name any, I'm just saying you'd be surprised at what kids have seen these days. I mean, my first yaoi ever was Sensitive Pornograph (which is notorious for being hard-core) and I was in 5th grade.

-_-' Mentally, I'm much older than fourteen. Please don't judge me by my age. And, honestly, Pengin-san is right. I've seen plenty of hentai, and they just don't have the depth I like in a series.

[Misaki_Cross]

Yaoi is the best!

oh well you kiddies are right the time are changing when kid are exposed to these things but any way it nice to see you kids being mature about it unlike my generation when people first heard about animated porn they're all like ewwwy or what yaoi is.

[小美ドクロchan]

O_______O holy crap but you kids sure are the opposite of "sheltered".....XD;

If I was your mom, I'd be like "NO,NO ABSOLUTELY NOT". My first hentai was around seventeen and my first shounen-ai series was at NINETEEN.

[Akihiko Yamamoto Hozagaki]

oh well you kiddies are right the time are changing when kid are exposed to these things but any way it nice to see you kids being mature about it unlike my generation when people first heard about animated porn they're all like ewwwy or what yaoi is.

Your generation? You're in my generation o_o. You're only five years older than me. It's not like you're my mother's age or anything.

@Shoubidokuro (that's how you pronounce yous name, right o.o?) - Good thing you're not my mother XD! But I think if I was mother (which I never will be >_<), I'd be fine with it o_O;;.

[Hideki Motosuwa.]

Right now, I'd prefer straight couples. Any is fine, but right now, I'm sticking to that.

Note: Of course you shouldn't judge someone by age, it's all a matter of how well you know things and if you can have an adult or mature conversation. I'm 16(turning 17 in March ^^) but I don't treat anyone different(in certain aspects) because of there age. And people, don't give me that age=wisdom crap, because I studied philosophy well enough to know that! I've chatted with people as young as 11 on this forum and people as old as their mid-30's on this forum, and they certainly don't judge me on age! Just saying, so you know peoples! And this new generation seems to be more mature and smarter, plus the things the things they are exposed to certainly don't surprise me, nor shock me! Oh, my mother is so strict on what I can see and what I cannot! Well, she's just showing her love and concern for me ^^. And yeah, I could imagine it now: I'm watching Yaoi or Yuri, seeing two people of the same gender kiss, then my mother walls in...>.<...

[bri_hime7]

(moves away from the whole "age vs. maturity" issue...)

I like regular and yaoi stories. I guess I like yaoi 'cuz it's different, and kinda taboo. And unlike yuri, it just makes sense.

I'm female, and being intimate with another chick just...sounds like a lot more work. Hence why I've never been turned on by it. >.>

I also agree that a lot of yaoi/yuri/hentai series don't have much of a plot. But the same goes with regular porn. People usually watch those things for the sex anyway, right? And producers seem to know and capitilize on it.

But some good yaoi series I've seen/read are:

1) "Ai no Kusabi" (Anime). Beautiful, beautiful series.
2) "Love Mode" (Manga). Kinda addictive, even though every relationship in it...uhh, started off in an "interesting" way.
3) "Midare Somenishi" (Manga). Not that well know (I think; as far as I know you can only get it scanslated), but it's very well done. Another beautiful series.

All three of these series have moments that make you think. And I like that in a series. ^^

[random question]
Can anyone answer this question: how come ALL sexual anime (even yaoi) rarely show male genitalia? But they'll happily show every inch of a woman's body?
[/random question]

[Hypergraphian]

[/random question]

Well, its to do with their intended target. Of course most yaoi shows are targeted at Japanese women and most Jap women are closet cases on yaoi. I know since my Jap teacher (who is a japanese woman) just recently shared her views on the situation. Plus, its not a turn on for them to watch the body parts. Its the lead up to it that's the best part. Angst is better than the act itself I suppose. FYI, I asked her about the anime doujinshi scene and that's how it got to this.

I agree with her completely cause the best parts are the parts before they get together, not after. Angst, angst and more angst. Yum. Okay, I'm going to stop myself here. But I voted for BxB

[Ikaruga]

Personally, I don't mind all three.

Unfortunatley, the most things I have seen are usually straight relationships. Like Chobits, Love Hina and Sakura Diaries.

The only Yuri think I've seen, that's the closest thing to it, is Utena. I haven't read up too many books on the subject, did get a Yuri Lesbian Manga collection book, and it wasn't all that bad, but nothing great.

Yaoi has... Kinda been ruined over here.. Something like the Wet Moon Manga, all the guys are drawn like girls, except they have male parts, doesn't really cut it out. It's very extreme when it comes to the sex scenes, and I'm not sure if they're meant to be girls (their expressions and attitudes remind me of them) or just odd guys...
The only Manga I can actually enjoy reading for being light Yaoi is Eeerie Queerie, which at first I thought was a normal relationship, turns out it guy like guy. And it's done in a very subtle way, that works better than shoving gay sex scenes in your face... Also another one is Alice on Deadlines... surprisingly it looks like a normal relationship, but then there's a lot of gender swapping with souls and bodies, so at the moment I am noticing a Yaoi relationship going on..

[小美ドクロchan]

@Shoubidokuro (that's how you pronounce yous name, right o.o?) - Good thing you're not my mother XD! But I think if I was mother (which I never will be >_<), I'd be fine with it o_O;;.

Ah it's "Chiibi" but yeah, it's a good thing I'm not. XD Eh!? Really!? You'd let your 13-14 year-old daughter watch two people having explicit sex on screen? O____O;; Something about that just seems....not right at all. If it was just kissing and off-screen sex, okay but not if it shows them actually going at it. >_< There's a reason why hentai is rated 18+.

[Akihiko Yamamoto Hozagaki]

By the way you say it, you're making me out as a bad person. I never said I'd let my child see explicit sex. It depends on how you raise them. I would raise them in an open home. I'd explain what sex was and not hide anything from them. That way, they wouldn't feel the need to "rebel" and watch sex. That's how I was raised. I'm not saying I'm going to recommend titles to them, I just wouldn't be that pissed if I found out. Age is only a number, and maturity cannot be restricted by age.

[Ball Tripper]

I don't care really. The heart wants what it wants I always say.....


Unless 'the guys' are around. Then it's either guyxgirl or hot lesbo action. Cause imma man yer!

[Hideki Motosuwa.]

Same here man! If your into REAL Yuri action, watch A Shot at Love With Tila Tequila! I love you Tila^^! Man, when Tila gets in those scenes with the other girls, uhhhhhhhh, I just get all excited ^^! Tila is a hot Japanese chick, and noone compares to her! NOTE: still sticking with straight couples, just that it seems more natural! Anyone else here love Tila Tequila? Visit my Myspace and you can clearly see that she is my #1 friend! Anyone else here have a Myspace? Because, I wanan be your friend!

[Ball Tripper]

I youtube'd an episode of A Shot at Love. I wasn't impressed honestly, I'm not into reality shows and I really don't like mtv. Tilla is pretty, but not enough to make me wanna watch mtv. If I want to see asian lesbians I am old enough to go down to the porn shop.

Although most of the shows I watched are all guyXgirl, I wouldn't mind or be disturbed if it had yaoi or yuri in it. (Not really into watching explicit sex of any kind though)

Strangely enough, when I read fanfics, I usually like reading guy/guy relationships. And I read a lot of adult type stories, kinda opposite to what I watch.

[Uzumaki Tenten]

I like all three but for some reason im liking yaoi better these day's (( I like NaruSasu that's prob why)) but all 3 are fine with me ^^

[Faceless111]

The poll is flawed. There is no "I hate all three equally" option. But if I had to pick, I'd go with the one that isn't a sin against God. Yuri.

You like NaruSasu? Wow!!! Nice to meet you. You are the first person I know to like it. Huhuhu... :laugh: Oh, but I like SasuNaru though...

[Akihiko Yamamoto Hozagaki]

Then you certainly haven't been around much XD! SasuNaru is THE biggest yaoi fandom I've ever seen XD!

I think you're a bit mixed up, there. I think you mean "straight".But if you're joking, it's really not funny at all. -_-

Excuse me, but I have PLENTY a sense of humor. I just found your post to be REALLY tasteless, rather offensive, and why would you hate all three anyway?

[Ball Tripper]

I actually find it hard to believe that you do indeed have a sense of humor. I found his post to be absolutely hilarious.

Excuse me, but I have PLENTY a sense of humor. I just found your post to be REALLY tasteless, rather offensive, and why would you hate all three anyway?I'm sorry. Yes, you have plenty of dry humor. Why would I hate all three? Yuri and yaoi first. Well, most of those are twisting the characters from different anime into stupid fan fics or fan pics. Like one I know is a good example, SasuNaru or Sakura x Ino. That's stupid and against the plot. I have no problem with gay characters. In fact, I wish there were more of them (well, more lesbians anyways). I also don't like straight pairings because there has to be something completely stupid about one of the characters. For example, Inuyasha (well, both Inuyasha and Kagome are dislikeable characters and their relationship has to be "edgy"). Or Naruto and Sakura as a love interest. Sakura is a Sasuke-freak, thus forming a love triangle.

Romances must find some of obscuring something, anything. That's why, as a guy, if I have to chose which to watch, I'd want to watch two girls.

finally SOMEONE with a brain on this forum.

+rep to you sir.;)

If you think I don't have a sense of humor, you must not know me on this forum very well yet. I've been told by many that I am a very funny person.

And you probably found it funny because you're a guy, am I right? I would think most guys would find it hilarious, whereas most girls would be disgusted, especially if they're straight and/or Christians. And I happen to be both.:closedeye So Faceless struck a bad chord with me. That is all

Ah.....mm. You may want to try watching other shows with romance in them besides those two. They don't do a really good job, and yes, couples in shounen shows like that can get rather annoying and tiresome. You will see, there doesn't ALWAYS have to be something stupid about one of the characters.^^

Oh please, don't hand me that crap.

I see you ranting on about how yaoi is the best thing in the world all the time. Don't even pretend like your a good christian:closedeye.

Im not a christian, but if i were i wouldn't care lol.

[小美ドクロchan]

What the hell!? Yaoi... best thing in the WORLD!? ALL the time!? I most certainly have NOT EVER SAID THAT. You must be mistaking me for someone else and I am certainly NOT pretending to be a good Christian.

Look, little boy, this is what I wrote at the beginning of this thread:
I myself, think there is nothing more precious and lovely as boyxgirl love. That's how it was meant to be after all, right? Learn to read properly in order to get your facts straight before you go around insulting people, huh?

You've officially pissed me off so, congratulations for making my bad mood even worse than it was. That's just what I needed. Thanks.

Btw it's "you're" and not "your". -_- Best if you learn grammar along with reading.

Oh boy... the immaturity is making me cringe. Your statement makes no sense. How can you judge how good a Christian is in the first place, if you yourself are not Christian? I know plenty of Christians who like yaoi and yuri.

They don't do a really good job, and yes, couples in shounen shows like that can get rather annoying and tiresome. You will see, there doesn't ALWAYS have to be something stupid about one of the characters.^^I doubt that. I dipped into some "romance" series and I still don't think the relationships are well constructed and there still are extremely annoying flaws with almost every character. Coming to mind right now would be School Rumble, the main protagonist girl (what's her face) is extremely stupid. That's annoying. Most characters can be put into different stereotypical roles: the rebel, the pervert, the klutz, etc. And these roles are exaggerated especially in romance series.

[Hideki Motosuwa.]

I've noticed that threads lately have erupted into flame wars. Anyways, I have no religion and think that anything goes in a relationship. I'm a guy, and here's my ignorant opinion: Anyhting is okay, just as long as it's not hurting anyone!(No flame wars with me, I have just been through hell and back with about 5 flame wars, and I'm not going through that again!) If I were a mod or admin(you all should be happy I'm not) I'd lock this thread right now for rudeness and flaming! I know it's NOMB, but I'm just stating my opinion on the matter!

I've said it before, I'll say it again, I love Yuri!(another typical guy here!:laugh: )

Note: Chiibi Dokuro-Chan, you do have a good sense of humor in my opinion, because of the things you say sometimes!

Lol yes, Tenma is dumb and has horrible taste in men. Um....that's because School Rumble is a comedy. It's not meant to be romantic. Don't doubt my word until you've tried a lot of titles. I mean a LOT. But you don't have to if it's not your thing. Good romance IS out there-just gotta look for it.^^

Thanx, I knew you'd stick with me, Cameron. :)

wrong AGAIN noob.
Christians CANNOT love Yaoi/Yuri, it is a SIN against god. My father was a christian and i asked him.

You really need to verify that your right before you go flamming others/stating random stuff.


@chan, so you're a bad christian then?

[Faceless111]

Romance really isn't my thing. It's not entertaining to me at all, so I guess we are at a stalemate because I'll always think that romance anime is lame and you'll think otherwise. Anyway, all I was saying is that yuri is the least boring to watch because... you know.

[小美ドクロchan]

AHAHAHA. *pretends to pick up phone* Hello, kettle? This is lightyagami. Guess what? You're BLACK!" *hangs up* XD

It's called "sin", genius. If you like something, you can't help it. You can't tell yourself or force yourself to hate it because that just doesn't work.:rolleyes:


@chan, so you're a bad christian then?

No, I am a human being who sins just like everyone else on this earth. It is a "guilty pleasure".

Anyway, all I was saying is that yuri is the least boring to watch because... you know.
Yes yes, I guess I do know how a guy's mind works by now. XD I should have been less touchy and expected it, I suppose.

lightyagami, I don't want to start a flame war with you('cause I'd lose!) but, if you take a better look at Pengin-san's information, you'd know that you are the noob, not her. She joined on November 2006, whereas, you joined on December 2007...please take a better look at some people's info before calling them noobs, please. And I don't believe that she was flaming you, I think that's just her way of explaining things to you!

Note: Chiibi Dokuro-chan doesn't seem like a "bad christian" as you generalized her. She is actually, quite a good and humorous person. Chiibi, I don't understand people's reasons for flaming you, and I know you don't need anyone sticking up for you, but if you find yourself in a flame war, I'll be there to even the score!(No, no, you don't need to say anything, it's my pleasure!^^).

[小美ドクロchan]

Thanks.^^ I don't want this to turn into a flame war, I REALLY don't....but I will defend myself and other members if need be. *sigh*

So far, I wouldn't call it flaming, even. Just arguing and questioning my faith, really. -.-

[Akihiko Yamamoto Hozagaki]

Oh jeez... this is not a religious discussion. I'll have you know that no where in the bible does it state that homosexuality is a sin. That is subject to speculation, but so is the rest of religion. I hate getting off-topic.

Anyway, yeah. So in the end I prefer yaoi relationships. I just find it more interesting.

What he said. Although i did find School Days quite enjoyable. And the Yuri anime Strawberry Panic was pretty lame lol, except for the umm you know parts.

[Azrael91]

I enjoy all.

[zeo_trap]

YAOI! woooo!!!! XD ...and imma guy O_O!! weeeee!

[shinnraiu]

I like yaoi and yuri (sometimes) and I don't really like het anymore. It disturbs me a little. boys and girls aren't suppose to do those kinds of things together

[XxTaintedxX]

I love yaoi!!
I like Straight too!!
Yuri doesn't bother me...
But i don't fancy it...

[Piper]

Okay.. Too bad I wasn't here before. But it seems like this thread was going fine, until some of the bad weeds had to come into the mix and cause a flame rally.

Please you guys. It's the internet, let's just take what people say on here with a grain of salt.

Thank you.
