Chapter 1 - Kitsune's Yaoi Rant
Chapter 1 - Kitsune's Yaoi Rant
Hey, I’m Kitsune, which you already knew. Currently, I’ve gotten some negative feedback on some of my posting because they contain slash, yaoi, or shounen-ai material. And it’s not just me; I’ve seen it on others as well. Now, most of you know this, but for those who don’t;
SLASH, YAOI AND SHOUNEN-AI ARE THE SAME THING! THEY ALL MEAN BOYxBOY RELATIONSHIPS!
All pictures and stories on Fanart Central DO have warnings on them, telling people what the pictures contain. And if you don’t know what that means, I’m sure there’s SOMEWHERE on the site where you can find out.
Quite frankly, I think it’s horrible that people flame other people’s work simply because of homosexual content. If you are uncomfortable with that type of thing, then just don’t look at it. I’ve seen some excellent art by very talented artists that contain slash, and they have gotten flamed because of it. Most of the flaming is by Fangirls screaming (or typing in all caps, which is usually the same thing) “You can’t do that! He’s MINE!” I’d like to just say to anyone who’s ever done something like this, NONE of the characters in any of these shows, movies, or books belong to any of you, unless you are the creator of said show/movie/book, which I highly doubt.
So the main point of this is, if you don’t like slash, just don’t look at it and leave the people who don’t mind it alone.
*sighs in relief* Wow. Had to get that off my chest. I really don’t care if people review this, it was mainly just to get my point across…If you appreciated it because you feel the same way, I’m happy to be of help.

*sweatdrop* I realize that Shounen-ai and yaoi are different in the explicitory sense, but it's the same basic concept. Thanks for reviewing!Kerushi on June 11, 2004, 2:50:57 AM

Actually Yaoi and Shounen-Ai are slightly different. Yaoi is more explicit and Shounen-Ai is milder. But you do have a good point about people flaming because they want the character or because they are homophobes. Those people are insults to fangirls and it because of losers like them "we" have such bad reputations! AAAAARRGH!tenchi on June 4, 2004, 3:05:54 AM
