Calanthee Posted April 15, 2008 Report Posted April 15, 2008 Do Fan boys actually exist or is it just females pretending to be boys? By fan boys I mean,testerone driven guys, who actually like to read or write Yaoi with pretty male characters inter-acting together in a sexual way. Gay or straight I'd like to hear about your particular motivations. Don't be shy Now guys I promise not to flame or hurt you in any way. Come tell... lovely Cal the truth! PS No Bogus Babes pretending to be guys or I'll wack you with my special Har flower that bites and then you'll be sorry....Giggle Quote
PorkChopExpress86 Posted April 15, 2008 Report Posted April 15, 2008 As a straight guy i can say, in my experience, no. None of my friends want anything to do with yaoi and we're all kind of shocked to see how ridiculous some women get about it. If there are characters in a series that are gay, its not a big deal but I will not watch shows/read manga that are specificaly yaoi themed. And let me put the, "guys like yuri just as much as girls like yaoi" thing to rest, because again, none of my friends are particularly enthused by that either. Most of us don't even care about lesbian porn, there's just alot of build up with no finale. Quote

Keith Inc. Posted April 15, 2008 Report Posted April 15, 2008 I've got maybe three male gay characters in all my stories and i gloss over them even touching themselves. Except for the mad-scientist one. I even accidentally put in a MPreg plot, didn't notice until someone pointed it out, congratulated me. Bleargh. So, not a fanboy. Someone did say i was quite the hentai, whatever that is supposed to mean, but i'm pretty sure that doesn't mean hot man love action. I mean, if they read my stuff at ALL they would know i'm not into that. And let me put the, "guys like yuri just as much as girls like yaoi" thing to rest, I am, however, quite happy with lesbian porn, which has proven very popular in a number of environments i've been in. Maybe you have to be at sea for at least 30 days, but it's always been a crowd pleaser where i've been. Quote
Zimarah Posted April 15, 2008 Report Posted April 15, 2008 I seem to like yaoi or even gay porn to the same degree that my husband enjoys yuri and lesbian porn. I don't get crazy about it, it's just my thing. I do however have a gay male friend that enjoys watching yaoi, but he's not the fanboy type, nor does he write or do anything creative with it. He just likes to watch, sometimes more than I do. Quote
PorkChopExpress86 Posted April 15, 2008 Report Posted April 15, 2008 Maybe you have to be at sea for at least 30 days, but it's always been a crowd pleaser where i've been. Well maybe i'll find out in a few months when i get comissioned... Quote
greenwizard Posted April 15, 2008 Report Posted April 15, 2008 Yaoi is where the guys act all feminie right? I'm not really into that. I'm into male/male stuff. Hey, I'm a creative soul that likes men. I try to write my pairings as realisticly as possible. I suck at sex scenes though. I can do it, but I have trouble describing it. Quote

I try to write my pairings as realisticly as possible. I suck at sex scenes though. I can do it, but I have trouble describing it. While having the submissive guy as the effeminent one in yaoi is common, it's not required. There are yaoi series out there where the men are indeed men. Quote
shinigamiinochi Posted April 15, 2008 Report Posted April 15, 2008 yes, I'm a lesbian writing yaoi *sigh* and after being called a 'fag hag' all through middle school and high school for writing homosexual fiction and living with three gay guys, I've decided that I deserve the right to punch the next person that calls me that in the face. To answer the question, yes, fan boys exist. My cousin is gay and not only writes yaoi fanfiction, he draws doujinshi for it as well. His husband thinks its 'cute' but doesn't do it himself. Quote

I am, however, quite happy with lesbian porn, which has proven very popular in a number of environments i've been in.

Keith Inc. Posted April 15, 2008 Report Posted April 15, 2008 well, hentai is simply pornSo, i'm quite the porn.I'm Porn? Is that like Barry Manilow's "I Am Music?" Quote
shinigamiinochi Posted April 15, 2008 Report Posted April 15, 2008 hentai is used both for the acutal material and for someone who is perverted or addicted to hentai. So you're a hentai who loves hentai. Quote
Obsolescence Posted April 15, 2008 Report Posted April 15, 2008 I knew one guy who wrote slash if that counts at all, but in my experience, most of the gay men I knew, thought anime in any form was too dorky for them, I don't think they've even watched one. But I do know a lot of Lesbians who write yaoi/slash. Me being one of them. I find it much easier to write than het. And I don't want to write yuri, because that just reminds me of living. Quote
Zimarah Posted April 15, 2008 Report Posted April 15, 2008 hentai is used both for the acutal material and for someone who is perverted or addicted to hentai. So you're a hentai who loves hentai. Or more precisely, in North America "hentai" refers to anime porn while in Japan it refers to the pervert. The Japanese use other words to describe hentai, such as ero. Ecchi is a Japanese word similar to hentai, but less severe. Pretty much everyone here would be ecchi at very least. Quote
PorkChopExpress86 Posted April 15, 2008 Report Posted April 15, 2008 they also don't use the terms "yaoi" and "yuri" very often either. BL (Boy Love) and GL (Girl Love) are the prefered terms. Quote
Keith Inc. Posted April 15, 2008 Report Posted April 15, 2008 Ah. So i am...quite the perv? Hmmm. ***counts on fingers: Men with tiny women; Women with tiny women; Women with tiny men; Xenophilia; men and demons; women and demons; aliens; Smurfs slash; Noah's Ark slash; Mad scientists; godlike hubris expressed in the manipulation of unhallowed and life-threatening forces, the very knowledge of which should earn me the approbation of all mankind, did they but know what I was tampering with....slash; Chick Tracts slash; NCIS slash; Monty Python; Trek slash; Amputee Giantess Femdom slash....** Nope.

foeofthelance Posted April 17, 2008 Report Posted April 17, 2008 Chick Tracts slash Wouldn't that make Baby Universes cry? I mean, just trying to say it mentally is causing my eyes to bleed out all over my keyboard... Keith, there is a ninja in your future... Quote

It was an interesting exercise. Black Leaf and Marcie are Dead! Behind the scenes of Jack Chick's comical tract: Dark Dungeons. Just why did Mike save Debbie, but not Marcie? BDSM, Oral, Toys Comics > Chick Tracts I tried to do Big Daddy, but i just kept screaming at the stupid. Quote
shinigamiinochi Posted April 17, 2008 Report Posted April 17, 2008 I can only read one of those comics once a week because my brain starts to hurt after awhile. Quote
DarkInuLord Posted April 17, 2008 Report Posted April 17, 2008 Without reading the thread... All I have to ask is... Why just yaoi? Can't there be fanboys of other things besides it? Quote

Keith Inc. Posted April 18, 2008 Report Posted April 18, 2008 Should I write a Jack T. Chick/Fred Phelps slash fic?You wouldn't dare.I often dream of finding a djinn and spending one wish to lock Chick/Phelps and The current Pope in a closet with rusty chainsaws...or a case of viagra-laced scotch. Just to see what happens. Quote
Calanthee Posted April 18, 2008 Author Report Posted April 18, 2008 Without reading the thread... All I have to ask is... Why just yaoi? Can't there be fanboys of other things besides it? Your right after further consideration I also came to that opinions too, after I started the topic... there are such individuals that might be considered generic fan boys of manga or of particular anima and it doesn't have to include Yaoi or Hentai... either! But knowing the lovely male species their egos might not appreciate being called a "FAN BOY" in any way, shape, or form just on general principle. Cal Quote
