Not "Yaoi". Its "Shounen Ai". This manhua will only be called "Yaoi" if there are sex scenes. Basically, there are 2 types of BL, Yaoi and Shounen Ai. Shounen Ai is a BL with no sex between Seme and Uke (or rapists if the story is about....anyways). For now, this will be called "Shounen Ai" manhua. But if, in the future, this manhua will show some spicy and SMEXY (〜 ̄△ ̄)〜 scenes in the future chapters, then this will be a "Yaoi". But since this is a chinese comic, I already know that they will censored it which is kind of ANNOYING. Even the kiss is censored, gosh!
Didn't mean to start a whole thing. In my mind this is shounen ai. I've read some listed as such and since it usually skips the scenes to the next morning or they mention it happened. Yaoi shows at LEAST glimpses and at MOST is explicit. Both are BL. Lol but that's just me. Never actually looked that into it but fromwhat I've seen that's how I categorize it. Well wishes! Its holiday time! (〜 ̄△ ̄)〜
Reading this, one of us might be high since all the yaois (dating, marrying/ marriage, etc.) I've read has sex while the shounen ai I read only has kissing (dating, marrying/ marriage, etc., but not sex).
If it's queer baiting, there should be only sexual tension but no relationship.
Also, mangago often put the wrong genres (some I read was tagged as shounen ai but has sex scenes, and vice versa).
Shounen ai does show romance between the guys and it's not queer baiting (shounen ai literally means boy love tf). Just because it doesn't have a sex scene or kiss scene doesn't mean it's not a bl.
I've read plenty of yaoi that hasn't had sex or at least sex shown.
Example:
Mermaids egg
A mail with my dead lover
Dead man switch (at least not yet after 20+ chapters)
I've been reading yaoi for a LONG time, this site just tends to have a LOT of shut yaois, like that's what this site was originally for. It's only recently that more wholesome stuff is on here.
Love how its progressing from far. At chapter 116. First one where they're fake brothers I stopped reading before the end of that one but picked it back up. The whole thing about multiple stories made it really interesting. I'll probably read asap when its updated. Wish it was yaoi though. T .T Just a sprinkle would've been nice. Like more kissing or some sexual tension lol
