Well everyone else did an intro post and I never did even though I've been a member since this place was made. Like a few other people here, I'm not anti-yaoi myself. I enjoy the genre quite a bit, actually... totally have an account on y!gallery... but, as ... that one person who's screenname I can't remember how to spell said I am anti-stupidity.
What I am actually against is shipwar. Shipwars are so stupid. Trying to tell someone who likes a certain pairing that they're stupid because that pairing isn't the one you like is the height of immaturity in any fandom, y/y?
I was on LJ recently and saw someone post on one of the Doctor Who communities about how they hated Rose Tyler and were pissed she's coming back in series 4 (starts Saturday across the pond~!!) and I admit it annoyed me ever-so-slightly. So what if Rose is a chav and she annoys you? Don't shit on the pairings that involve her. Especially on a comm that FORBIDS shipwar.
I highly advocate the DON'T LIKE, DON'T LOOK logic. I mean, really. Don't like a pairing? PRETEND IT DOESN'T EXIST. That's worked for me for who knows how long! I, personally, don't care for Relena in Gundam Wing. So, I slash Heero and Duo together because Duo saved him from the hospital that one time, and they seem to be seen together often in the series. It makes sense. I slash Axel and Roxas because Axel's perseverance in trying to locate the blond leads me to believe there's more between those two than meets the eye. But I am not a yaoi-elitist like some of those "rabid fangirls" that only likes it when it's a sausage fest.
I guess that's because I'm bisexual, too. I just like people for their personalities. So I love pairings Renji/Rukia and Ed/Winry and 10/Rose.
And I have been known to slash guys because lol it's hawt... and yuri (Larxene/Kairi, Tatsuki/Orihime, Hawkeye/Schieska...) and even sometimes I like somewhat ooc het pairings. 10/Tosh would be hot, k...
SO uh. Yeah. Hi everyone. One of the not-so-rabid yaoi fans reporting in. :]
