Don’t think of it as a sad thing. There’s plenty of old ladies in Japan who still love BL and I think it’s beautiful because no matter how hard life is sometimes, it’s nice that some things remains the same (doesn’t have to be about BL too lol). Be old and love the things you love the same
oh nonono i dont think its sad lol... i just find it ironic. like am a girl but i read gay stuff imagine getting caught by your husband. how do you even explain. (not that i care what he would think) but it would still be funny af
I mean, I js look at the bl genre like any other, it's like growing old and still watching any romantic related media
It reminds me of wotakoi, like, both girl protagonists are grown ass women with jobs and they still talk abt bl and one of them even cosplays, which happens irl a lot
It's js doing it for the fun of it, and if I still find it fun while I'm old and full of wrinkles, then good for me, I don't think it's tragic at all
Uh, why do u suffer with a husband and child even in a hypothetical future situation. Its way more easier to think that oh came home after job, have to fred cat and complete chapters. Honestly doesnt sound that dif from uni i think
Jalsnsld, I know a couple of people that are full on married for like, years and they know each other's secrets, or they don't even consider a secret the fact that they read yaoi
Some couples evern read yaoi together, js for the funsies!
i want kid in the future (not by adoption) so i guess i do need a husband even tho i can divorce after lol. but i do want kid
I've been reading since my teens and I am an adult now, reading manhwas, mangas and manhuas is still one of the ways I like the most to decompress. I think there are many others like me on this site as well. Life does shape you up the more you live, but some things stay with you for a long time ^^
I've been reading yaoi almost literally every day for the past 11 years if it gets less, it's bc I'm busy. But I'm not planning to ever quit. What I did quit reading is highschool stories, as I got older. Other than that, I still love reading yaoi but also im glad there are many good yuris and josei mangas these days too. My bf doesn't really know I read yaoi or smut in general but I hope he will be accepting (not like I'll stop haha)
Been reading it for like 10 years so I ain’t stopping
I just realized something… are we really all going to keep reading BL once we’re grown up? Like, after we get married, have children, and get a “real” job? Imagine coming home exhausted, your kids screaming, your spouse complaining, bills piling up on the counter… and you just lock yourself in the bathroom pretending you need “alone time,” when in reality you’re catching up on the latest BL chapter. Honestly, that’s hilarious and kind of tragic at the same time.
