hello^^
Im female and have been reading yaoi for 7 years now. I dont really know why I started, but now I like it better than male&female relationships.

I would like to ask u why u are reading yaoi and which gender do u identify yourself with?
Im just curious. I dont know any other persons who are reading yaoi so I dont really know who likes it....

If u dont feel comfortable with answering just ignore me please. And Im sorry to have make u felt uncomfortable>.<

    I myself am gay (male) but I didn’t start reading BL bc of that.. I actually came here bc I wanted to read ‘Who made me a princess’

    I accidentally read a yaoi bc I thought it was a girl and a guy in the cover.. but it was two dudes AHAHHA.

    Now I really just can’t read straight romance anymore. I like fantasy stories that have some romance but a full on romance I just can’t read.

    The way I start reading bls is weird because first I started watching shoujo animes and then accidentally found bl anime and to my suprise I found out that they actually were adaptations of manga so this is how I started reading bls... It's been 3-4 years since I first came across with the bl genre and I've read a wide range of the them and I always thought that it's weird because I am girl (straight)... I still read straight ones though... I was so conflicted with myself but at the end it's all romance that I want to read about so I don't really care if it's sl or bl... I just need romance to read something ╥﹏╥

    I'm female. I'm straight, married and have kids. I've been reading Yaoi/BL for 2 years (Started a few months before covid)
    I read BL for the hot boys and blushing semes. The MF comics are just written different. I don't want to say much else, but you're welcome to message me.
