| I enjoy Yuri more than I do other things More relatable than straight romance, but being gay would make that rather a given |

| Girls are the main target audience of yuri. The majority of yuri readers are girls. Just saying. |
| I enjoy both yaoi and yuri equally. |
mclovinballz said: Endycia said: NarTaco said: Boys are going to reply too. Unless they're also girls.... What about the hermaphrodite people ? which one are they? MAL has no hermaphrodite option so pick one and deal with it. I believe the hermaphrodite option for MAL is simply 'Not specified'. Syndrical said: Do you enjoy yaoi but dislike yuri? Speaking as a male, I wouldn't touch anything yaoi related with a ten-foot pole. Yuri? I'm mostly indifferent towards that sort of stuff. |
 |
| I dislike Yuri and Yaoi both (note; Yuri and Yaoi are generally considered the hentai versions of Shoujo/Shounen Ai). I like Shoujo Ai and Shounen Ai however, which have no hentai in it. |

Well, anime listed as yuri in the MAL database can be as tame as kissing. That said, I do kinda find the concept of shoujo-ai more appealing than yuri because shoujo-ai presumably has a better focus on romance, and less fanservice. |

Sidenote, I have observed Yuri being a lot more popular with younger women than with older women. |

| All the anime I've seen that have been tagged Yuri have been either mediocre or complete garbage *cough* Sakura Kiss *cough*, (and no I haven't watched Simoun, the first episode bored me), I get the feeling that shows with yuri rely too much on the yuri tiself to pull the weight of the show, and so is otherwise substandard. |
| I liked Sakura Trick more than most of the other anime in its season. |

I like Shoujo Ai and Shounen Ai however, which have no hentai in it. Even on mal some titles are beggining to adapt to our later years. See Sakura Trick and Akuma no Riddle tags, none of they are hentai and they aren't tagged as shoujo-ai. Which is a good thing, mal might be slowly walking towards updating itself.

| I like yuri and traps. Traps are basically flat chested girls with ochin-chins so thats okay I guess. (thats what I tell myself all the time) |
 |
| I like both but from the drawing aspect, if the picture is nicely drawn with amazing colors and certain poses, I don't mind either, i love collecting pictures :) For a Hentai or Anime wise, it is a bland for me. I don't like nor dislike both of them but i will lean more toward yuri than yaoi sometime. |

Mamimii said: I couldn't say for sure but Yuri is rather popular in one of my lesbian subreddits; I think it's more that Yuri is generally "watchable" for heterosexual men while Yaoi has that "Ew, penis" factorInteresting. My guess would have been closer to the exact opposite, lol. It seems to me that the majority of Western yuri fans are males, but maybe I'm wrong there, too. So less that men are fans and more that men will just watch Yuri like everything else, I think women tend to be far more in the actual category of fan because of the sense of validation and representation Yuri provides that heterosexual romance doesn't Mamimii said: Generally, I do see Yuri used more than shoujo-aiThat definition of yuri is obsolete, I believe. |

Kimono_Kitsune said: That's okay, I'll take your word for it. I was just surprised because I read on multiple blogs that "most yuri is still drawn by men for men." I don't know what the yuri mangaka gender stats say—but, I suppose that either that's untrue, or a lot of females also read male-targeted yuri.The majority of the readers of the major anthologies are overwhemingly female. As for sources/statistics I don't really have, I'm just repassing what I thought was common knowledge, but, I will probably work on those sources someday, if I ever learn Japanese.

I meant that yuri is more inclusive now (if it wasn't always); it doesn't only refer to explicit physical relationships.Generally, I do see Yuri used more than shoujo-ai |

| Well for what it's worth, Yuri Hime has 70% female readership, [1] while Yuri Hime S is aimed at males. Makes you wonder, don't it. |
|
| It'd be interesting to see the gender demographics for yuri viewers from a western audience, opposed to a Japanese audience. I know on one (western) site I go to that uploads strictly yaoi content, a survey showed that the overwhelming majority of visitors were male, which wasn't expected at all. |
