No, it's kinda hard for my personality to talk about yaoi because it's still reading illustrations with sex scenes. Maybe once I get a little more courage in the future, I might be able to talk about it with my friend who also reads manga.
At the beginning I was also embarrassed about it.. Since they would always think about it as an hentai.... And yes, I hate hentai they don't simply have a plot .. Watching yaoi for me is just like watching a shojo with all included . ( the only problem is that i do not find it normal to read boysxgirls anymore because of the mentality yaoi gives so whenever I start reading a manga I will always check the romance line,unless for manhwa).
I'm sure that if you find other people like you, you wil get the courage!!
At first, It was also hard for me to talk about yaoi, I mean sex is not a common thing in our society so it's quite hard to talk about it even if yaoi is much more than just sex.. But one day, I told myself that this is who I am, so I don't care whether they'll find it disgusting or even be shocked. If a real friend don't acknowledge this aspect of my personality, then it just means that our friendship wasn't that strong ! But well, it turned out quite well, even if she isn't into it xD Yaoi, I mean.
I do, many times, with my friends, but not with strangers, and NEVER with family.
None of my friends are into yaoi but they say they like listening to me talk about it(for some reason). They even point out guys that they think would fit in my yaoi fantasies lol (like two guys wit their arms around each other) and they also help decide who would top/bottom XD I'm glad they're so chill about it.
Well those people are boys you see, they seem to have some kind of issue where they are against homosexuality but they don't consider yuri as homosexual love. It's hella weird (づ¯ ³¯)づ. I'm a girl and i have no issues talking about yuri with them but as soon as they see any kind of BL they turn into raging homophobes (/TДT)/.
So Mangago community of fujoshi and fudanashi community is one of the best ever! ( I've been here for ages ) People share their thoughts and so on (since the site is well build).But apart from that does anyone talk about yaoi or shounen ai in public ?? I do.. At First my friends where shocked but they later on understood that there was nothing they could do and went along whit it! And thank god I have my fujoshi sister !! (๑•ㅂ•)و✧
