I am truly curious if anyone has an educated/ psychological opinion on why I hate any form of romance involving a man and a women but melt when it comes to being two guys and I’m a heterosexual girl??
You're probably not gonna find an "Educated/Psychological," opinion on this site. But my guess it just that you're too used to it. The thought of deviating from something you've become accustomed to makes you uncomfortable, therefore you dislike het pairings. That's just my take on it though. If you wish to step out of your comfort zone, just take it one step at a time.
Not educated and this it very poorly worded but it could be for a couple of reasons:
1. Two hot guys are generally better than one, even more so for a straight girl
2. Seeing the same thing over and over again is boring, why not spice it up with two guys
3. Maybe the idea that the couple not only has to go against the regular stuff, but also society's idea of a "perfect couple". It also adds a bit more drama and depth to the characters since they are forced to accept or acknowledge this part of them. Instead of a generic "I love him but he has another girl" it could turn into a "I love him but I know he can't love me and I'm feeling a new form of isolation that I can't talk about with anyone"
4. Taboo, sometimes we like what is considered "taboo" or improper for the sake of it, rebelling is fun. Like how sometimes kids who grew up with a lot of rules are really rebellious but those who had chill parents were fine
5. Maybe you hate romance with a man and woman because you haven't found a story you like and a lot of them follow the same cookie cutter storyline
6. Following what very little I know about Freud (either you want to kill it or screw it) maybe you just think it's hot
7. The art could also have an impact on how cute the scenes are, shoujo art looks really similar a lot but in yaoi there's a bit more creativity in this aspect
I know this is a lot but your question legit had me thinking for a couple minutes lol ╮( ̄▽ ̄)╭
Because you're heterosexual. Naturally, you're more attracted to guys, and then boom, you find two guys in a relationship and all of a sudden you realize,
"Wow. I love guys. I'm attracted to them. It's even more attractive when they're together because they're guys."
Don't take me too seriously, afterall, I'm being half serious and half writing this with no second thought.
Not really an educated, nor a professional opinion - just my two cents worth. The yaoi audience is compromised of females, whereas yuri is being marketed to target male audiences (a shift actually).
Perhaps QueenMurr got it too - sometimes the "forbidden" becomes more enticing. The norm/normal relationship gets boring, until something spices it up.
Would you still have the same opinion on real life romantic relationships? If two guys acted lovey-dovey in front of you, you would still feel the same (btw - I silently go "gyaah-gyaah" when i do see them rl ), or would it make you uncomfortable?
It's okay being hetero and still liking yaoi, in my opinion. Forget the gender thing - some of the plots/stories are really good.
We were led to believe Suha was just a sexual deviant and now I’m feeling some sex trafficking has something to do with all that...
