It's pretty easy for me and sometimes hard because I don't have much privacy even if I want it. Cause I share a room with my sister even though she's not always there. Also anyone in my family can just walk into my room. I mean I could lock the door but that's just making it hard for me since I'm lazy and don't want to get out of bed. So pretty hard to hide it sometimes especially when my sister is right next to me

im not a hardcore fujoshi but i do enjoy reading yaoi/shounen ai and i don't think there's any problem in expressing to others on what you like, but it's a safe choice to not tell your parents lol especially if they are homophobic. I still talk to my friends about it though, and they're pretty chill about it, even if they have no idea what yaoi is.

Well its not to hard to keep it a secret my parents havent found out yet and i've been reading this stuff for like 5 yrs, but my sister knows bc we used to share a computer also i dont think you should be scared to tell friends bc last while walking home with one of my best friends i found out she was into this shit tooo and now we show each other mangas (yaoi) that we like and its really fun

It's not hard at all for me. My family doesn't really suspect anything, and I'm usually pretty quick at hiding it if they look at my screen. I'm also good at keeping a poker face. I have a friend I met online and we typically text a lot, so I told him that I like it and he doesn't seem to mind. Though, he does have a problem with it when I try to get him to watch shounen ai/yaoi anime with me. Other than him, I don't have any other friends, but if I were to make some, I wouldn't have a problem with telling them about it. ( ̄∇ ̄")

My family mostly knows but they don't care. I was teased a bit and my sister kind of freaked out on me but eventually everyone moved on. In my case I was careless (didn't delete history, was oblivious enough to watch Elven Lied in the living room). If you really don't want people to know just don't be careless like I was.

Just recently I decided to just be open about my hobby. So my family knows that I like yaoi stuff and love to read ecchi yaoi/BL, they even know that I start to do translation too LOL As for my friends, they all know that I'm a hardcore fujoshi, they even sent me yaoi manga on my birthday as present ^^ Well the beginning is not that smooth sailing, I lose some friends but I gained a few. My family just let me be since not like I did something unforgivable hehehe Just that when I read ecchi manga in front of my mom, I have to tell her "I'm reading adult stuff that is between guys, please don't look at my phone" and she would just look away XDDDDD

Also I think my brother knows but I'm not sure because he did say that I read yaoi once when we were talking but not sure if he knew or was joking cause he sounded like he was joking and he does know that mangago has a lot of yaoi manga. I tried to play off cool but pretty sure I failed.Also my sis was there when we were talking so now not sure if she also knows but either ways they seem to be treating me the same and not making much of a fuss about it

Yeah, i'm glad that they are really understanding, but it took me a lot of courage to tell them about it though. Because I don't like that I kept on "lying" to them that I'm just reading a book when I'm reading a yaoi manga, and I don't want to have to keep denying the 1TB manga in my hard drive is not mine >.> it's really not cool. So it was a all or nothing shot. And luckily, my mom has a hunch too, and she said "that's fine, as long as it doesn't hinder your work and study, then you can like whatever you want, it's your hobby" ^^
┑( ̄Д  ̄)┍ Long story short I'm kinda secretly a pervy Fujoshi that loves yaoi yuri and ecchi but I don't want anyone especially my friends/family to know How ( ̄∇ ̄") hard is it to like have this double persona online? And do any of you guys do it too???
