I saw a potn ad on IG in 2020 and started reading it
Back in 2010, I was a freshman in highschool, I saw a post in an anime magazine about a Shounen Ai novel "Only the ring finger knows". This what got me started on yaoi.
It's when I was 13 years old, I saw the comic book with 2 handsome guy and thought it's was a shonen manga, after read it I throw the book away. I didn't expect my sister saw the book and start talking about BL because she thought that I'm also a BL reader. She keep chatting about her favourite BL books that's I can't even dare to tell her that I bought that book by mistake. In the end, I become like her ╮(￣▽￣)╭
I was around 8,9 or 10, I used to read a lot of genderbend manga and fanfiction and then I realized that you dont have to change someone’s gender for them to be together, and my very first ship sasufem!naru became sasunaru when I realized. Fell into shounen ai/yaoi doujinshi and manga and never looked back
My question is how did you discover yaoi?
And what age are you since you start reading?
(Long story sorry)
well I discover this world by accident fr 2020 when COVID-19 began we really are lockdown so all I do in home is scroll an scroll thru fb and then I start to watch animes in Facebook I'm watching Naruto and we all know it's too many of them in the fb right? After I scroll down after I watch a one episode (5 episode per day Lol)
I scroll down and see :))) an anime called " the titan's bride" tf HAHAHAHA but I was an innocent kid back then and I see the episode is not long so I watch anyways and I'm shocked and traumatized in the next episode and then that how my innocence gone after that I see a recommendation in my fb feeds a webtoon called " cherry blossom after winter" I really like it a lot even now but the app suddenly erorred I think it gone downed so I was really sad and then I searched to the fb feeds the topic " where to read —" and then boom I list all of them but only mangago I like and then here I am now reading shits. Lol but I think this is the sex Ed for me yeah cuz in our country the school didn't teach it on students.
But I always think what if I didn't click that video "will I be a straight just like my friends" sometimes I regret it but even if I reborn again in this world I will choose to read yaoi Lol after all. half of my reading manga are still ongoing but still so many what if in my heads because rn idk if I was a gay or bi or straight (but I'm definitely not straight)so I don't enter realtionship like this one when I was on senior high my girl best friend does have a feelings for me she always says it to me but I was scared to enter a relationship I might just hurt her feelings so all I said to her is that we should study first and achieve our goals and in my present life rn college life she still mention me in her post and she even said to me on the comments the phrase "the moon is beautiful, isn't?" But in our native language.
anyways I lived like a dead watching motivational videos won't motivate me at all Lol every time I go out many people full of disappointment in me I even heard them say "that child has a face if only I have that face" "sayang lang" I also got bullied a lot when I was on my senior high year alot bcuz I'm thin my voice is kinda girly because if I used the deep voice my throat hurts so only if it's important.
My parents asking me everytime what happened to you? You are being left behind by your friends as they have more social life than me before I was a really bright student and child always receive a medal and now I felt like shit I want to take a step but it was so hard as if I was stuck in here like a child not knowing what to do in he's life. I think this is for now Lol I really release here my thoughts mhua thank you for those who read it all my typing didn't go to waste HAHAHAHA
