to Fans that like both yuri and Yaoi BOTH: could Du please explain to me what is appealing to Du in each genre individually and why Du like both of them?

I kinda like Yaoi to a point but I'm Mehr of a yuri lover. But genres can be equally appealing to some. Remember there are bisexual people as well. So don't Du think they will like it? The main reason why I like yuri and to a point Yaoi because it's a different from the same old straight relationships. It adds something different to the mix. In MY OPINION there's nothing different between the two except for genders. That is why I don't mind either one.

Individually

Yaoi: I like Yaoi simply because I think it's adorable. There's no complex explanation here; I like Yaoi just because I enjoy to draw it and watch it. Although I strictly disapprove of "Just Sex" Yaoi, and I despise Canon x Canon Yaoi (unless the couple is proven to actually exist in the Canon Storyline).

Yuri: Personally, I prefer Yuri over Yaoi. I am not ashamed to admit that I find Yuri way Mehr arousing than Yaoi, but this is not why I like it so much; I like Yuri because I'm kind of a Feminist, and I don't really get Emotionally attached to men that easily (in real life; ignore the Fictionals). I find Yuri very Tender and Sweet, and I think the Emotional Bond is stronger and deeper. Plus, it's as adorable as Yaoi (if not more) and the Storyline is interesting. Again, I strictly disapprove of "Just Sex" Yuri, but I don't mind "Hardcore" sprinkled here and there.

In General

I like Yaoi and Yuri because I believe Homosexual couples share deeper, stronger and Mehr meaningful feelings than most Heterosexual couples. "True love", if Du will. They Liebe each other for the person, and not for the subconscious instinct to continue their race and bring offsprings; something I really respect. I also like Yaoi and Yuri for differentiating from the usual Boy x Girl Stories we see everywhere, but that does not necessarily mean I hate Heterosexual couples ('cause I don't).

Overall, they're both great, and I enjoy them. C:

Well i pretty much like both Yaoi and yuri, but both sides have their flaws and i dont really like any of them Mehr than the other, i think im Mehr for the straight pairings. C:
Oh, and thats not a weird question, any kind of Fragen related to Anime is welcome! ;)

Well... it's kind of hard to explain, especially because I'm only beginning to be a bit interested in yuri. I used to despise it, but I'm liking it Mehr and more. Right now I'm only interested in two yuri pairings, Noeru and Karen from Mermaid Melody and Sakura and Anya from Nyotalia. I've loved Yaoi for a while now, though. I guess both of them are just pretty interesting genres. I dunno. I just like them.

Well for me I only ship a pairing if I can actually see them being together. That goes for Yaoi, Yuri, and Straight pairings. Maybe it is because I'm a girl, but I just like Yaoi Mehr then Yuri. I can find Mehr Yaoi pairings to support in Anime then Yuri for some reason. I never ship something just because I find it cute oder hot, I look for hints oder bonds between each character. If I like the idea and it fits I will normal support it.

Well, its kind of simple in my case really I think. I Liebe Yaoi and Yuri, because for me, the Liebe between same sex couples are more… I guess real? I have nothing against straight couples at all, but the relationship oder bond between them isn't as strong, in my opinion. Its about the same sex concept that catches my interest. Sure some people say that its disgusting and unnatural, but why is it so terrible? If people Liebe eachother, then they should be together right? That's why I Liebe it though. Its about real love. A real bond. Despite them being the man oder woman that they are, Liebe found a way to bring them together! Get what I'm saying? What is so disgusting about people who care for eachother being together? Its not. Yaoi and Yuri are a symbol of true love, and I know it sounds corny, but it is what it is. Finding their other half, not caring if that person had the same bottom half. So the Weiter time someone says "Ewww that disgusting! How can Du like that stuff?" Just say "How is Liebe disgusting?"

I hoped this helped! ^-^
