I read a few chapters from one... seriously disturbing stuff for a guy.
My excuse is that I got a bunch of manga of the net without looking at genres, as I was still innocent back then and did not know the horrors of manga/ mankaga's minds.
Yup, since then (2 years ago when I was 15-16) I have always made sure that I check genre type before getting manga. Anyway I was quite shocked.
I was dumbstruck, after a while of motionless staring, to figure out that the girl was in fact a boy.

Yaoi and shounen-ai are two different types. But, whatever.
I've read about 100 of them two, I think. Sometimes when I read a new title I think that I've already read too much. There are simply too many pointless yaoi manga without plot. Boo hoo.

I've been reading yaoi for 4 years so I'd say I've read over 1,000. Last count I had 36 disks burned with manga and about another 50 books on my shelf.

err.....wow.....a lot. i've only been reading yaoi for half a year....and i've moved from a shonen-ai lover to a pervert.
Not including one-shots or doujinshis or slashables, i've read 19 shonen-ai and more than 114 yaoi (mostly hardcore) manga. and that's NOT including one-shots. i've read a LOT considering i only started half a year ago.
my yaoi folder of my disk takes up more than 5 gigs AFTER i spent all that hard work trying to delete most of them so that i have space for more...
i started reading young ^-^ i'm proud of it.

I don't know actually, it seems I read a lot....A lot more than Lamb and Maniak Combined, so that's a lot.

Hmm.. I've got about 100 yaoi mangas saved on my computer at the moment but I tend to delete a lot of them to save space and I've also got a few actual books, so in total I guess I've read about 200+

I didn't know what Yaoi meant at first and a girl told me to go to Google images and look it up. In other words, I'm never reading a Yaoi.

yaoi = 0
shounen ai = only a few with the shounen ai between the lead characters, but quite a few shoujo & josei with side characters who are homosexual
I don't have any strong negative feelings about either, just not something I'm particularly interested in reading. (yes, I'm female )

I'm just not the audience. And the artwork is always REALLY unappealing.
