Lmao, I totally misread this and wrote up this long answer thinking it was something else. Anyway, may as well answer the actual question, since I'm here.
There's no such thing as "too old" to read yaoi. Yaoi is written for adults. That's like asking how old is too old to read Harlequin romance or watch porn. Those things are geared toward grown u...... 2 reply
Honestly, I think no one younger than 14 should be reading anything smutty or generally nsfw. Any age for yaoi/yuri is fine, but younger audiences should stick to fluffy stories. Reading nsfw yaoi/yuri at a young age leads to the fetishization of gay/lesbian relationships and creates the toxic yaoi/yuri fans that we all know and “love”. 2 reply
Yaoi is for adults so I don't think there is an age for being "too old" to read yaoi as long as you enjoy it. And for how much is too young I would say it's fine any age as long as you understand whats going on and that it's a FICTIONAL world, and that in general things from yaoi should not be applied to real life 1 reply
I seriously think Yaoi should be rated 18+. I was 13 years old when I read my first yaoi manga and I deeply regeret that. Because I was too young and naive. In almost most yaoi manga r**e or abuse in general are normalized and romanticised which influenced me at my younger age and i begin to think that it was the norm until i was confronted by a co...... 2 reply
It really depends on the person. Some are young but can be mature when it comes to yaoi, and some can be old (or legal at least) but they could make ignorant comments. Just as long as you take this in a mature way then it’s fine. 3 reply
Pfft! there's no such thing as "too young" or "too old" when it comes to yaoi :)
Geez I'm kidding I think you have to be in a certain age for anyone to read Yaoi I mean if someone is 10 years old they can just read shounen-ai because in shounen-ai there's no sex scene which I think it would be bad for a kid to see two men or women naked in ah...b...... reply
am i the only one who started read yaoi at the age of 20? and i quite glad about that cause i dont think reading some sexual content at the young age is beneficial. and it concerns me so much about how a lot of underage kids in the yaoi fan group. i mean they label 18+ for a reason tho. 1 reply
Hm, i started at 18, i think being to young is not proper, but this days even a ten old kid knows more about sex than you -.-
although shounen-ai is good for younger readers, but harccore yaoi, don't know, depends on each individual reply
too young is when reading yaoi interferes proper mental development. When you can't handle it and you're end up addicted/scared, so like about under the age of 10. But you're can be 17 and still too young for it.
Happily, because of shit that was happening in my life, 11 years old was enough for me to reading smut stuff. I enjoyed it and it even h...... 3 reply
