I just read what's interesting...
But I preffer seinen over shounen (I just don't like most shounen manga..)
And more josei than shoujo.. (shoujo's nice, but It's mostly about the same annoying "boy meets girl, they fall in love")... rather some shoujo with josei elements?^^
I'm a girl by the way..
I would read anything that's interesting with good art^.~

Well, of the shounen/seinen/shoujo/josei genres, I'm willing to read any of them, as long as they interest me. But I'd have to say my favorite of the four is seinen, even though I read the most shounen and shoujo. Shounen and shoujo are just so much easier to find in bookstores, so I happen to own more series. I haven't read much josei, though.
As for the normal genre system... I pretty much read anything other than porn (het, yaoi, yuri; also encompassing loli, shouta, and the like) and shoujo-ai. I prefer gender benders, shounen-ai, comedy, horror, and drama.
But, honestly, I'm not really that picky about what I read.
... Looking back, I probably should've mentioned that I'm a girl...

I have been reading manga for some time and I keep coming across these genres on boards and web pages but never what each one is so could some post definitions please?

Girl and I read everything.
The Majority of what I'm reading is shoujo but my favourite series tend to be shounen or closer to shounen.

I prefer anything with a good story. I used to be very biased against Shoujo but now I read quite a bit of it too.

I'll read anything that sounds good, but I find that I enjoy Shounen/seinen more. This is mostly because I really like things to be funny, and Shoujo/Josei doesn't usually pull this off (MAJOR exceptions are Ouran High and Skip Beat). Seinen humor is usually what gets me laughing the hardest, so seinen holds most of my all time favorites.

Anything and everything that catches my eye.
I'm not picky about the shounen-seinen/shoujo-josei thing because most of the stuff I like is fast-paced action-ish fantasy 🙂 and if you know where to search you can find that in all categories (well, josei the least, that's why I only read Nana)

I'm female and I'll read just about anything. I have favorites in every genre/demographic. There are too many interesting things to stick to just one area.
