teaandyoghurt Posted March 27, 2015 Share Posted March 27, 2015 Used to keep it kind of personal/private from parents. But then they were looking for one of my screennames to see what I bought them for christmas one year and came across an old fan-fiction blog of mine^^" They read it but wouldn't give me a good critique.. But to answer the question, no. I hide nothing. ~Megs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shiju Posted April 22, 2015 Share Posted April 22, 2015 I never had the chance to hide it :_red_fox 11 Like, almost all of my classmates in highschool knows that I'm a yaoi fan xD and some of them started watching yaoi because of me!! LOL In my family, a few of them knows. LOL. Though I never told them that I like yaoi, they kinda just found it out xD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yxer18 Posted April 22, 2015 Share Posted April 22, 2015 I don't really hide my addiction.. I just don't show it and talk about it with everyone.. plus, I have friends who are fujoshi and fudanshi.. *(o^^)o Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EmbracingAnime Posted April 26, 2015 Share Posted April 26, 2015 No, I don't hide my yaoi addiction, at least not anymore. In the beginning, I would look over my shoulder and constantly take off my headphones to check if the ero sounds could be heard. When my brother came out of the closet, I didn't want to hide my love for BL anymore, because it felt like I was ashamed of homosexual love which I support. Now, my yaoi is in plain sight, but still no one has discovered it. The manga is with my non-BL manga, so it's just shelves of books to the untrained eye. As for yaoi anime, there's not enough for me to watch often. However, when I do, it's just like other romance animes. The romance is just between males now, perhaps with a little smexiness here and there. My family is very understanding. I remember my father walking by and seeing me watch Nowaki and Hiroki kiss (Junjou Romantica), and he asked "are those men kissing?" "Yes, is there something wrong with that?" "...No." "Okay." "Okay." My family is made up of otakus though, so perhaps it's easier to dismiss a lot of things as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
emirot Posted April 27, 2015 Share Posted April 27, 2015 hahaha. im pretty glad that I can talk about yaoi to my best friends, 2 of them. they are the first one to know bout my interest. and my older sisters knew bout it quite later and somehow my mum knew im interested in something with gender related. hahha. im pretty glad that I have an outlet and doesn't need to hide all the time. my best friend listened to my ramblings and im so glad for that.

MusicKP Posted April 27, 2015 Share Posted April 27, 2015 From my family - definitely. I mean, that would go beyond awkward and embarrassing (very conservative types). My friends on the other hand, some know some don't. I don't particularly try to hide it or anything and if anything I'm trying to get them to give it a shot as well ^^ (my friends are pretty open-minded here in college than back home so I have no problem talking about my newfound love for yaoi) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corax Posted April 28, 2015 Share Posted April 28, 2015 No, I don’t actively hide it. When it comes to people who don’t have to do anything with me in private, I won’t talk about anything including me as a person or my interests anyway. There is no necessity in that kind of talk so I only talk about the concerning subjects, business-talk, with them. My Real-Life friends usually know. Most of them are familiar with the Manga and Anime scene, most of them Fans as well; though they aren’t into Yaoi. While talking about Manga when I hang out with one or some of the guys, I do not exclude telling about the Yaoi Manga I read, when I am asked what I am currently into. I wouldn’t tell them about the content of course, since they don’t like Yaoi, so why should I bother them with something they don’t like. However, I talked about some characters, their development and plots with a really good friend of mine and I made him at least watch the OVA of one series. He liked the story and the characters, but he also told me that he absolutely didn’t like the sex scenes. I told him if he would read the Manga, he could just skip them because they aren’t really important for the story itself and the development of the characters. Other than that I have one friend who likes Yaoi. She mostly knows the mainstream stuff, but it doesn’t matter cause it is cool to have someone to talk about Yaoi related things sometimes as well. When it comes to my family they do not know. They only know I collect a large amount of Manga, Comicbooks and books. Everytime I buy new Manga and my parents recognise it, they say:”You bought Manga again. When do you actually think of growing up.” I leave it be like that. My Yaoi Manga stand openly together with my other Manga in the bookshelves. But even if my parents would know, I don’t think they’d care. They are absolutely liberal, plus they aren’t interested in my ‘nerdy-things’. The only time one person of my family has seen something Yaoi related was when I was 15 years old. It was my annoying, obnoxious aunt on a birthday party in my parents’ house. “Have you some new artwork you could show me.” She asked in her high-pitched voice, with her insincere smile and her overdone friendliness. “I think so.” I showed her some artwork and didn’t really think about the fact that I’d just created some Yaoi pictures showing some RP characters from Yaoi RPs. She wanted to know:” Are those two men ?” (As if she didn’t knew what she was seeing.) “Obviously....” “How sweet. That’s so cute!” I thought she’d go talking about this with other guests for a moment. Obnoxious aunt didn’t. Still, I can't stand this person.

3Stack Ninja Posted April 28, 2015 Share Posted April 28, 2015 I'm really open about it to my friends, but if you're just a classmate, you'll probably not know. Most people at my school knows me as the girl who likes anime and has a bunch of anime boys stuck to her locker. Only a few people in my class know that I like yaoi. Even fewer know that I like it to an extent where it's "perverted" (I put quotes on that, because I don't like yaoi because I'm perverted, I like it because of the characters.) My parents know that I like anime and have an "abnormal" love for anime boys, but they are both Christian (my mom is an Asian Christian, which means there is no leniency on the whole gay thing) so I hide yaoi from them.

Jukka Posted April 29, 2015 Share Posted April 29, 2015 I did, but that was before. Now I just don't care. I even include BL in almost every suggestion of stuff to watch to my friends. BWAHAHAHA. They would love it, I know bc I did. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yu_Kanda_YK Posted April 29, 2015 Share Posted April 29, 2015 I had to. I had to hide it away unless I meet some other Yaoi fans, then I go all out. Otherwise, I have to hide it from the people around me because they aren't as accepting as I am. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daijinahito Posted April 30, 2015 Share Posted April 30, 2015 Only in professional situations. To be able to speak freely of my likes among friends, family, and my husband is a must! BL is a part of my identity. EDIT: Though I can say for sure, it may break some friendships and love interests. Some people are just not that accepting. I decided to spill the beans to a friend of mine, back when I was in high school, who liked manga/anime. I wanted me liking BL not to be some secret I had to keep so I brought it up, but the day I brought it up in conversation was the last day he ever talked to me. So, if you are afraid of losing friends or love interests, maybe you should refrain from saying anything at all. But to me, keeping a secret from the people you like is the worst. If somebody stops being your friend just because you have a strange interest in gay men, LOL, then that person truly isn't your friend. I've had a friend openly admit she liked women and was really interested in me. We are still best buds, even though I couldn't accept her feelings.

RomNex Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 Unless I'm very close to someone I don't feel comfortable telling them I'm into yaoi. My closest friends and my boyfriend know that I love yaoi and real gay porn though. I really don't see me ever telling my parents about it though.

DeadmanWonderland Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 I have never told my family, but some of my close friends know about it. They did think it was a little weird at first, but they had no trouble accepting it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cohran Posted May 4, 2015 Share Posted May 4, 2015 My country is one one the most homophobic in the world so there is no way that my family can know. I actually set my browser on auto history delete and hind my stuff under layers so my pc is like a maze. My brothers and a few friends know though but they are cool about it as long as they do not find them:Excited:. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CheputChan19 Posted May 11, 2015 Share Posted May 11, 2015 I must hide it from my parents *sighs* but all my close friend accept it ^^ since they never can stop me babbling about yaoi stuff =￣ω￣= (though sometimes they will cover their ears when I start too much babbling XD ) by the way my country seems homophobic as well so sometimes I must hide my interest of yaoi •﹏• Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sagittarius90 Posted May 15, 2015 Share Posted May 15, 2015 I never told my family but when my sis caught me reading some intense yaoi anime videos, she teased me and even threatened me that she would tell mom. It was fine at first but when she accidentally said it in front of my mom, I was so horrified that I couldn't take my eyes off my plate but I could definitely feel her disappointing gaze towards me...

NatsuPantsu Posted May 18, 2015 Share Posted May 18, 2015 My parents are.extremely religious and i have to hide it because if they do catch me (i hope not) i will never hear the end of it. Only my close friend know about it and they don't care at all. one of them used to hate it but now he is immune to it because i keep making him watch it c: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chenchuuu Posted June 4, 2015 Share Posted June 4, 2015 My sister is a fujoshi too, so of course she knew. And my mother knew I and my sister are fujoshi so yeah she knew...(I often chats about yaoi thing with my sister in front of her, even watch yaoi anime and dorama too, lol)..My dad? If he still with us, maybe he does not care about it,lol. And my friends? Lol, most of them even not read manga...so why bother telling them that I like yaoi stuff, I only have 1 best friend and she knew that I like yaoi, dunno she is a hardcore fujoshi or not, but she likes to ship Kpop boyband guys, and read shounen ai manga that I recommend. *I am too shy to ask her read rated-M yaoi manga #cough Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
