Johnnys’ Rant # 1



Yaoi


wahmbulance
Ok all, welcome to Johnny’s rant. This a warning for you all. I am a jerk, and admit to being so. This is a rant, and I will open my mouth and say whatever I feel like in order to get the ignorant to listen. If you have a problem with that, then leave now. Got it?!

Ok, so heres my rant. The individuals on Gaia, online, fanfiction.net, or just in general, when they converse about Yaoi. Let’s get one thing straight people, I don’t think even HALF of you know what “Yaoi” is.


*Dives away from crazy anime fans*

Now, heres my problem. I go into the A/M/C, only to find it littered with Naruto/InuYasha obsessed n00bs who can’t even put a topic in the correct place. Then I find others, who converse about things such as “Gravitation” and “Loveless” and who continually call them “Yaoi”’s.

I know this is going to hurt, but they are not yaoi, they are Shonen Ai.

Yes, my obsessed-with-drawings-of-homosexual-men-doing-it friends, Gravitation is not a yaoi. Let me explain why.


Yaoi: Two individuals that are both males have sexual intercourse without any censoring.

Shonen Ai: Two individuals, usually of the same sex, with hints of intercourse or there of with included censoring.


I know, oh my god. Many of you may be saying “Well, I’m using it as an Umbrella term.” My reply. “DON’T N00B!” No, you do not use “yaoi” as an Umbrella term, that makes you stupid and ignorant and I will find you! Others will be telling me “Well what about manga’s like “Desire” and such, where we see the two men doing it, we even get to see scene of their *****.” But let me say, NO! If the p***s is censored out to the point that the individual is touching air with random spits of liquid, that is censoring, and once again, is a Shonen Ai. If we don’t see complete male nudity, then it’s a Shonen Ai.

Now, come obsessed yaoi fans who don’t even understand the term. (Usually those that are ten to the age of sixteen who for some reason love two men doing it… Oo)

I agree with you, i went through my roomies "Yoai" collection and went, Shonen Ai, all of em. And she commplained and I said someting similar to what you said. Now I can't borrow her other manga cause I'm a 'Yoai hater'. She's sorta correct, I like the guy girl pairing, it rules. Shonen Ai, yes, Yoai, No *has read some very graphic doujiniis*. Shonen is kinda cute, they act like little girls with their first crush.

I am so happy someone brought this topic up. I'm sick and tired of noobs talking about yaoi and numerous other things and when I ask them what they really know, they know nothing!!!!! They just don't know......

How true...they should change the topic to "Shounen-ai" rather than putting "Yaoi" in bold at just about every thread they create. I'm surprised Gaia even let that be since the site has a PG-13 policy.

I totally understand you! I love Shounen~Ai things, and it somehow irritates me when people put Yaoi or Yuri. And Shounen~Ai and Yaoi/Yuri are completely different. Sometimes, I suddenly go "GRAWRZ" on my friends when we get into an arguement about this stuff... and I end up being the winner.
