Can you open up to your parents that your reading bl or yaoi stuffs?

I just really want them to know that I enjoy reading this kind of genre... Its not like they see me as an innocent child tho... But there still lingering feeling in my heart that they might tell me to stop... Do I even need to share it?

I also put yaoi wallpapers on my phone withot password on, to let them see it.

    My cousins and one aunt knows that I like Yaoi but I wouldn't dare open up to my parents about my interest in yaoi because they are sorta homophobes but not the extreme type....they're like not that open minded... ヾ(❀╹◡╹)ノ~

    tbh i think as you see it as your right to read it, it's their right to accept it or not.
    if you intent to reject their rejection then just don't let them know and keep the good relationship.

    Hmmm that's a really complicated question to answer to. There are a lot of things that will affect your decision to tell.

    First of all, we don't all have the same relationship with our parents, for exemple I don't speak much to my parents, therefore I don't feel the need to "confess" anything. But others, might feel like hiding some feelings from parents might feel wrong. Beause of that our advice may not apply to you.

    In any case, I don't necessarily feel like you "need" to share it to be honest. You are allowed to like what you like as long as it's healthy without having to tell to the world or your parents.

    Hope your not offended, but according to your concern and message, I am gonna assume you are fairly younger. And therefore maybe want to understand other people's experience and feeling around it?

    Personaly, again when it come to my own family, don't feel the need that they should know anything; so unless it comes up, they don't know :p but maybe you should figure out why you feel like you really want to tell them? :)
