Description Hey I can put up stamps I made but don't agree with completely. Because there are opinions other than mine.

I think the only part of this I agree with is the usage of the word "yaoi." I personally think it should apply to anime or anime-style games (Your JRPGs for instance) only, but that's just me. So here's how it lays out to me.

Kingdom Hearts yaoi: Yes.
Naruto yaoi: Yes.
Supernatural yaoi: No. (THIS SHOULDN'T EXIST ANYWAY. THEY'RE BROTHERS FOR CHRIST'S SAKE.)

you realize there is a supernatural manga, right?
not that i don't agree with the fact that yaoi should be applied to anime/anime-styled things, however.
gay ships are gay ships though, i suppose.

I'm not sure yaoi applies to live action shows/movies. I think that's called m/m or slash.

I agree with the message of the stamp,

but I disagree a bit with your explanation in your description.
Yaoi is manga erotica from female authors for female target audience.
With feminized men, oldfashioned hetero-stereotypical relationship
(practically the woman and the man relationship from 50 years ago with two dicks)
with no intend to involve gay life at all.

If it's a gay manga author or for gay male target audience
it's not "yaoi". Unless they specifically mimic that style,
it's just gay comics too.

Oooh, man that always drives me up a tree. Actually if you're doing a pairing it would just be "slash" so Kingdom Hearts slash would be SoraXRiku or RoxasXThekitchensink, it's only yaoi if the genre is yaoi, so Romantica, thats a "yaoi" Loveless... thats also technically a yaoi.

inele1 In reply to SourBitters [2013-02-19 20:58:58 +0000 UTC]

but wouldnt loveless be considered shounen-ai since they dont have sex in it?

ArcaneEnchantment [2012-08-24 00:15:48 +0000 UTC]

I'm a fan of Yaoi. But I do agree the word "Yaoi" fits best with anime. With real life stuff or other things. Then it does sound a bit silly.
And yes, Supernatural Yaoi shouldn't exist because they are brothers. ;A;

I honestly hate when people call every single thing that is gay YAOI. NO IT'S GAY. HOMOSEXUAL. NOT YAOI, OR YURI. IF IT'S NOT IN THE ANIME GENRE, AND SUCH IT IS NOT YAOI. SUPERNATURAL SLASH IT'S NOT YAOI. (Well unless you are talking about the Supernatural anime then you have something else.)

what annoys me is that yaoi is pronounced the same way you pronounce the name of a fantasy monster from Australia (I think), called Yowee. It confuses everyone.

I don't watch Supernatural, but I have seen fanart of it, and I don't think "Winchest" is the only pairing there.....

Lol. I actually hate the word "yaoi" (too lazy to explain why), I usually just say male/male pairing or something.....

supernatural yaoi...they should call it slash sense 1st it is from america (where the term is from) and second cause it is not anime! and third cause supernatural Yaoi makes you think of supernatural creatures XD

DeviousVampire [2010-10-20 17:50:24 +0000 UTC]

I agree, although I read an article that says that yaoi used to be considered separate from a homosexual lifestyle -because of how over the top unrealistic it is- and that even yaoi has subcategories like shounen-ai (no sex) , and 'bara' (drawn by real homosexual men and looks nothing like the stuff the genre is permeated with).

I could give you a link if I can find it again, it's quite interesting.

Sure thing!

Funny story... I've been looking all over google and I couldn't find it, then I typed in 'yaoi history' and it was the first one on the list! The part about yaoi being seen as completely romantisized is in the last parts. [link]

Annd here's the little thing about 'Bara' yaoi. [link] (genre)

Thanks for the link! Fascinating little read.

I love how they bring up Zetsuai because it's just so damn ridiculous. I'm only familiar with it because of the brilliant snark of it by Zarla. (Here: [link] )

DeviousVampire In reply to genkistamps [2010-10-22 16:20:22 +0000 UTC]

Nice! Zetsuai is considered a yaoi classic, but everytime I try to read it... I start to feel a bit bored. Maybe it's just me though, as much of a fan of yaoi I am I'm not a big fan of the ones that make the guys look like sticks. It only works when it's by CLAMP.

Lady-Manticore [2010-10-16 03:10:00 +0000 UTC]

Speaking about western culture version of yaoi it would be "slash". Yuri converts to femslash the same way. Gay is for IRL)

DeviousVampire In reply to Lady-Manticore [2010-10-20 17:47:03 +0000 UTC]

I thought that 'Slash' referred to any pairing that isn't canon to whatever the series is.

dark-links-girl666 In reply to DeviousVampire [2010-10-24 15:28:25 +0000 UTC]

no it refers to non-straight and Yuri converts into Fem/slash and people use a / in most pairings so some times it is confusing
