Title: Cut Out The Girl, Add A Guy!
Description: Yaoi club! :D
Kuki Prower - January 24, 2006 06:30 PM (GMT)
Hey guys! I know there are some other yaoi/shounen-ai fans on this board so I decided to make a club where we can post pictures and talk of our favourite male/male couples!
Join up if you love any couple! :D Just be sure to post pictures that ARE NOT graphic yaoi but I'm sure none of you will do that.
Anyway, as most of you guys know, my favourite pairing is TrunksxGoten aka. TruTen from Dragon Ball Z. I just love them so much! They make an adorable couple and they have lots of interesting fanfics out there even though there's not much fan art.
Anyway join up! :yahoo:

Aaah, I KNEW I'd seen this club yesterday! Was all confused when I couldn't seem to find it today. So I wasn't hallucinating! :dance:
I don't ship yaoi religiously, unlike how I've seen many fans ship Sephiroth/Cloud or Zack/Cloud, for example, but I do have a couple of small favourites (one of which should be pretty dang obvious by now, if my constant squeeing wasn't obvious enough :razz: ). I used to search for yaoi fanfiction quite a bit when I first stumbled into the fandom, but now I've mostly been collecting fanart (and such pretty fanart they produce, oh yep).
So sign me up! :D

*Signs Lynn up* Welcome Lynn! :huggle:
I've never really like Cloud and Sephiroth, but I think Cloud and Zack are cute. I prefer to read fanfiction if its written nicely rather than looking at fanarts. I've seen a couple of Cloud and Zack stuff and it was so cute! Also mainly because shounen-ai/yaoi drawers seem to draw them beautifully!
I don't have a lot of Truten pics, Truten seems to be more popular in the fanfiction fandom.
Paladin's Heart - January 26, 2006 11:15 PM (GMT)
Haha, Sure I'll join. I don't really support Yaoi couples due to my beliefs. But I only like one couple, and ONE COUPLE ONLY. Which is Marth and Roy XD. I always liked reading fanfiction between these two. And They're both so hawt too. XD. I wouldn't mind seeing those two french kiss! XD.

Kuki Prower - January 27, 2006 09:36 PM (GMT)
Welcome to all of our new members! :huggle: I should start posting some of my cute Truten pics that I've got ^_^
Pyra Kurai Akaidra - January 28, 2006 11:17 AM (GMT)
Since I'm in the club, I'll mention my fav yaoi pairings from Digimon!
Takouji (love this so much that I have to mention it again! :fangirl: )
Takouichi (Takuya and Kouichi, rare but cute)
Ryokato (Ryo and Takato, read a really cute and fluffy fic about them)
Daikeru
Kenkeru (darkness and light...who say they can't be together?)
Taito (Tai and Matt, the most popular pairing EVA since Digimon came out)
Here's a pretty fanart of Takuya and Kouji I found by Googling.
Takuya and Kouji, wearing yukatas. :fangirl: :fangirl: :fangirl: :wub: :wub: :wub:

BlackWind - March 10, 2006 12:34 AM (GMT)
Shounen-ai is just like yaoi in my opinion...Gravitation looks good, and Loveless is awesome. ^^
Pyra Kurai Akaidra - March 10, 2006 08:54 PM (GMT)
To BlackWind: Shounen ai is simply hugs and kisses between two guys. Yaoi is more then that but less then lemon, unless specified. :P
Kuki Prower - March 10, 2006 10:29 PM (GMT)
Shounen-ai is mainly cute kissing and hugging but the story involves their relationship and how romantic it can be. Yaoi is just sex really :lol:
BlackWind - March 11, 2006 02:04 AM (GMT)
Okay, that makes more sense now! Now I realize why people always say its differant....Haha
Difinity - March 12, 2006 07:19 PM (GMT)
Whoo!! YAOI! I *love* yaoi (Yes, I'm a perv XD) but whatever! Sign me up plz! ^^

*Adds new members* Welcome guys! :welcome:
More yaoi fans! We will take over the world! :plot:
Kusari Yarou - May 10, 2006 02:12 AM (GMT)
I've been wondering, what IS the psychological explanation behind the yaoi fandom? I dabble in some pairings, but I'm certainly heterosexual :unsure:
All I can come up with is...the squee factor is just *different* when it's a guy and a guy, instead of a guy and a girl.
And how come yaoi/shounen-ai more rampant in anime, than, say...Hollywood? The list of two Hollywood women who've kissed is huge(girl/girl sells anywhere) but for the guys, it's much shorter.
Pyra Kurai Akaidra - May 10, 2006 10:19 AM (GMT)
I also love Yuki/Shuichi ever since I got Gravitation!! I even catch up on the manga! (Yes, I'm perverted too when it comes to Yaoi/shounen ai. :P )
To Kusari: Eh, I don't know. Maybe because there's a lotta guys who like the girl-on-girl action. But there's also the females...eh, not sure if the actors there want to do a same-sex scene, kiss or otherwise.*shrugs*
Beside, Hollywood need to create good relationship if they ever made movies about guy/guy and/or girl/girl. Most pairings are often like not only because of looks but the chemistry, spark, relationship between the two people.

Man, this answer is SUCH a cop-out, but I can't help it. :lol:
I we can find out why guys (generally) love girl-on-girl action, and switch the genders around, I guess we'll find out why some girls are absolutely nuts about yaoi! :D
...Okay, an actual attempt at an answer:
I think it partly has to do with the almost "forbidden" nature of a yaoi relationship. You can see het happening anywhere. It's rampant in movies, games, etc. We're saturated in it, and we're also exposed to all those anti-gay/pro-gay movements. There's conflict there. And audiences thrive on conflict. Whereas you don't see anybody stirring up problems about heterosexual relationships.
So when you choose to support a yaoi coupling, it's almost like taking that forbidden fruit.
Although don't ask me why girls usually end up liking yaoi and hating yuri. In that case, I'm definitely going to point to my first answer.
On a more personal note, I support certain yaoi pairings because the image of Cloud and Leon kissing appeals to me, particularly if it ends in the hotel room...
I'm so sorry I'm so shallow. :sad:
Kuki Prower - May 10, 2006 07:43 PM (GMT)
Why do I like yaoi? Because I'm gay! :lmao:
Hey guys, I written a little fluff fic last week and posted it on FF.net, got 7 reviews for it so far! ^_^ Though two were flames because its a "gay fic" :lol: Well, its a Sontails (SonicxTails) one if ya wanna read it.

Oh oh oh! I read it a few days before! Seriously guys, this story is so sweet and kawaii, I'd add a tablespoon of this to sweeten up my morning coffee (although I don't drink coffee cause it makes my breath smell bad and my teeth stained) :D. I HIGHLY suggest that you read it, its so sweet and kawaii and... :fangirl:
Oh yeah Leon, make it 8 reviews if you haven't added mine that I told you in MSN. XD.

To be honest, I don't know. I wouldn't want to give out my opinions because I'm just a little immature kid! And I honestly don't think that it will help you. But I sort-of agree with Pyra Kurai Akaidra because of guys liking girl/girl and with us just swiching the genders around...ehehehehe.
Oh, and I thought I'd like to share this nice fanart I found on deviantart. I can't give credit where credit's due cause I forgot who's deviantart I found it in! But anyways, It's Marth and Roy from Super Smash Bros Melee, originally from the Fire Emblem series. I found it to be very cute and sweet. And the art is titled 'Boy Huggle' XD.

Aww, how cute. :fangirl: Though I don't know them, the contrasting colours show that they seem to be two different kind of people with clashing personality, good or bad (in this club, good).*first impression*
And Paladin's Heart, just call me Pyra or PKA.
EDIT: Is the guy in red the Seme? :devil:

Oh, okay. :huggle: You can just call me PH.
Above the pic I posted who they were, they are Marth and Roy from Super Smash Brothers Melee, but originally from Fire Emblem. The guy in Red is Roy, and the Blue one is Marth. And they are both good guys in the games.
And I'm glad you liked the picture ^_^
Pyra Kurai Akaidra - May 12, 2006 11:24 PM (GMT)
Ah, so that's who they are. Still didn't know who's the Seme.
Now for FF pairings.
Cloud x Zack (I like their relationship while in SOLDIER.)
Squall x Seifer
Zidane x Blank (yeah, I like this one, bite me)
Riku x Sora (bwahahahaha, preferably where Kairi is not bashed in fics)
Leon x Cloud (I got into this too...)
Kuki Prower - May 14, 2006 09:03 AM (GMT)
Naughty naughty Pyra! Seme and Uke eh? :plot:

Pyra Kurai Akaidra - May 14, 2006 09:41 AM (GMT)
Hey, I did mention I was perverted when it comes to Yaoi. :devil:
Now that Seme and Uke comes up...
Takouji - Kouji's the seme, though Takuya can fight for the position.
Cloud x Zack - DEFINITELY Zack, hands down.
Squall x Seifer - ...Debateable.
Zidane x Blank - Same as SxS
Riku x Sora - Riku, no duh.
Cloud x Leon - Leon, though Cloud can too sometime...
Takouichi - Takuya, no doubt. Kouichi is more of the shy type.
Ryokato - It has to be Ryo, Takato wouldn't have it in him to be the Seme.
Daikeru - Both can be Seme, just at different times.
Kenkeru - This is hard to decide...
Taito - TAI! Tai got my vote.
Yuki x Shuichi (Gravitation) - Yuki, na no da! Not just the fact he's older and sexier. :whistle:
Like I said, I'm perverted with Yaoi. :shifty: :plot:

Kusari Yarou - May 16, 2006 03:21 AM (GMT)
That 'forbidden fruit' theory does make a lot of sense. Although I still wonder why 'most all guys love yuri whereas only some girls like yaoi. It just goes back to my Hollywood question- how come besides "Brokeback Mountain", I can't think of any recent popular guy/guy movies? :unsure:
This probably sounds goody-goody but I like slash the most if there is luv and fluff involved. That's why even if I don't really ship the couple, I can be 'converted' if I read fics about them that handle the love powerfully. I've dabbled in Elricest(Full Metal Alchemist) and Remus/Sirius(Harry Potter. There was just this one amazing fic about them...)
Although I also think there's such a thing as tasteful smut!

...but I draw the line when it comes to those master-slave-bondage, guy-in-maid-outfit....things! :ermm: *runs for cover*

Lol. :lol: When it comes to Squall/Seifer, I can't decide who should be the Seme! Seifer can be on top with his attitude, though I don't think Squall can be a good Uke ALL the time... :devil:
Okay, more pairings!
SasuNaru - The most popular yaoi pairing in Naruto! Same as Squall and Seifer, I can change between having either Sasuke or Naruto as Seme, though I prefer Sasuke most of the time. :fangirl:
ItaNaru - Don't ask why, I JUST love this pairing! There must be another reason why Itachi is searching for Naruto... :plot:
NejiNaru - If Sasuke can't have Naruto, why not Neji? :whistle:

I admit, I don't read much of those master-slave fics, but the guy-in-maid ones are mainly for amusement to me. :lol: Especially when Naruto lose to Sasuke in a bet...

Yep! Right in front of the class and everything! IT'S CANON. :lol:
What's especially hilarious is that during one of the major flashbacks Naruto has about Sasuke, the kiss makes an appearance too! You'd think the kid would want to forget about it. :lmao:

I think there's quite a large female following for yaoi, especially as it becomes more mainstream.
But I guess if you look at slash, while it still has a notable following, it's probably still outnumbered by yuri/girl-girl stuff. My first guess would simply be demand-- more guys searching out this stuff, so people supply it-- but it's very much just a guess.

Are you following the age-old arrangement of seme/uke? In which case, I really can't imagine Cloud as a seme. Maybe it's from all the yaoi doujin I've seen, but I have a hard time imagining Cloud on top of any yaoi relationship (except perhaps Cloud/Kadaj! :lol: ).

| Cloud x Leon - Leon, though Cloud can too sometime... |
Again, Cloud = seme here?
Although amusingly enough, Cloud became so hardcorezomgANGST!!11! in KH2 that I can actually imagine him as the typical cold, cool seme in this pairing. KH1!Leon was definitely seme material, but it was bloody hard to keep that image of him when he started indulging in happy!crack in KH2. :lol:

Of course that makes it canon! Its in the manga to! I heard that in the english version of the anime, they cut out the kiss but you could hear it. I found that hilarious because if Bugs Bunny could kiss Elmer Fudd on the lips, why can't they show Naruto and Sasuke kissing? :lol:

Oops! I meant to say Zack x Cloud, but Cloud x Zack comes out more first. However, Zack will always be the Seme to me!
As for Cloud x Leon, eh...same thing, must be the fact they come out alphabetically.*Shrugs*I imagine them a more...I dunno, Riku x Sora relationship, with Leon as Riku and Cloud as Sora, but that's just me...an a lotta fangirls. Note to self: Watch how I type certain pairings.

Because Bugs Bunny is not human? Wait, that means it imply bestiality, ahhhh~!
Seriously, I want the dub to keep it. Does the flashback Sasuke have show it during the Wave Arc? :P Must be one of those great, defining moments he have with dear Naruto. Unless there's a special reason why cartoon can have it and not anime.
...Wait, Shugo and Balmung's assistant (what's his name again?) shared a similiar kiss in the anime. :o

| QUOTE (Paladin's Heart @ May 29 2006, 10:37 PM) |
| What's Uke and Seme? |
They're terms to specify the dominant and submissive characters of a pairing.
Seme = dominant (top)
Uke = submissive (bottom)
Usually, the pattern of writing the pairings follows Seme/Uke arrangement-- so if I wrote "Leon/Cloud", it means Leon is the dominant character in the relationship (and gets to top Cloud :P).
With seme and uke, certain characteristics sometimes follow. A 'seme' is usually characterised being colder, angstier, dark etc. Whereas a 'uke' is usually characterised as being more innocent, naive, emotional etc.

:lol: No no, that's just me being overly curious. I wanted to hear the reasons of anyone who could view Cloud in a 'seme' light!
And yes, they sorta parallel Riku/Sora to me too, mostly in terms of the difference in personality. Although KH-verse Leon and Cloud share too many similarities at times to me, so I like throwing in a sprinkling of their personalities from their original games.
BlackWind - May 31, 2006 03:41 AM (GMT)
Teeheehee.
Exactly...Yah know, for a long time, I always did the exact same thing. "WTF DOES UKE AND SEME MEAN?" Then it hit me and I went "...Oohhh...Heh..heheheh..."
XD
Luxord/Xigbar.
Thats one crack pairing me and my friends came up with over the weekend...
"Xigbar! I challenge you to a game of strip-tease poker!" "..-mumble- Clever little sneak. Knows Im gonna lose."
I think I'm gonna make a fanfic outta it.
