Yaoi is Porn?

Quote from Pikapu
[quote=Bunny-chan]Even Yaoi-Con, the USA's only BL convention says that its not gay porn: http://www.yaoicon.com/what-is-yaoi
Your argument is invalid.
How exactly? Considering the BL convention's explaination is based after what many BL publishing houses and mangaka have stated. I also remember a BL mangaka had a tizzy when a gay man confronted her, check out Alex Woolfson's website:
(Alex Woolfson is a middle-aged gay man BTW)
Because your source is horribly flawed. You shouldn't source something with an obvious bias, it has no weight.[/quote]
not to mention
So it's gay porn for women?
Nope. It's a female fantasy of what's sexually attractive, not a gay male one. Yaoi embodies the (actually quite common) female notion that m/m relationships are the stuff of high romance and beauty and true love and angst and impossibly wonderful sex five times an hour. Not surprisingly, yaoi tends to make real gay men snicker
it's porn bunny-chan, stop giving evidence for our argument, not yours 🤣

NightSwan also said that she wanted to peg me, once, but I'm not sure whether to take that as a compliment or a threat...
And a BL mangaka loses. Thanks for playing.
I suppose you can say porn, as long as you don not call it "gay porn", then I'm fine I guess.

You can be a BL mangaka or any other sodomite, it has no bearing
as an argument.

I'm not a man, or a gay or bisexual one at that, so I cannot be a sodomite.

I was wondering if any of the people who actually read and like yaoi consider it porn
you could say, in a way, that it is considered porn

Many are, and Many AREN'T, some of my favorite titles could very well be called "porn" (Sensitive Pornograph, Finder Series, MINAMI Haruka stuff), but not all, and some like the works of TAKEMIYA Keiko and est em are sweet, erotic and overall GENIUS!

A lot of people seem to put porn into a group of it's own, which isn't always incorrect, but there are times when it is there IN ADDITION TO, as opposed to being the main thing.
Take Berserk for example, there is porn in Berserk, but Berserk is not porn. Yaoi is not some magical exception. If there are pornographic scenes, those scenes are porn, no matter how good the story.
Dammit, I just forgot where I was going with this.
My point has probably already been stated in here somewhere anyway.

This is the problem with your argument.

You are like the dense main character in a shoujo manga.
Quote from Crenshinibon
And you will murder someone one day, pika. If you're my daughter.
So, writings about sexuality and love always means porn? Erotic just means that.
Heck, the R-rated film, The Reader (I dislike it) but that is movie is erotic and its not porn. It has a full-body nude man in it, and it is still not categorized as porn.
(I think this topic maybe should be in the Yaoi/Yuri forums since we could get more fujoshi and fudanshi to vote)
