hi there! shounen ai and yaoi are both outdated terms and are actually newly used to refer to pedastry (paedophilia) only, and to parody gay relationships.
the more common and accepted term to use us BL. just some trivia for u <3
ah okay I get it, thank you
you're welcome! ^^
What?? Who use those terms with that meaning. First time I see that wtf
Shounen ai and yaoi are just legit a genre in Japanese comic/anime bruh. I mean Japanese has lots of weird ass genre in the first place (like ntr, etc). And this is a manhwa so I guess just refer to it as BL. I doubt Korean comic has separate genre for Mature content (yaoi) and non-mature (shounen ai) But I never heard of them being outdated terms to refer pedastry wtf
True, BL is literally Shounen (boy) Ai (love) in Japanese translation. It doesn’t make sense
if u have time I suggest u read this as it explains why we should respect contemporary japan's use of "bl" instead of yaoi or shounen ai. both of those terms are outdated in japan and, even tho shounen ai and yaoi were originally napanese terms, korea too (therefore also relating to manhua) https://satans-tiddies.tumblr.com/post/188331793831/hey-i-recently-read-one-of-your-posts-about
