Where did I ever say that? He's free to like whatever he wants. I just think it's ridiculous to say a woman liking a harem anime or a man liking a reverse harem anime is 'not normal.' While I wouldnt watch it, since I'm traumatized by JoJo fanfic, I can understand that straight guys can like super lovers I also find it reasonable that guys can wacth revers-harems and gals like harem. In the end both genres are about hetero relationships. And, uh, normal is a ruse. What is normal for one person is not normal for another. Nobody has the right to make norms for everyone else,unless of course you have ways to force them, like politics does |

Whatever themes the show has will probably be overshadowed by the homosexual overtones. Kind of like how brokeback mountain is a tale about masculinity and homosexuality being viewed as opposites by the forced gender roles society puts on us, but all it can be remembered as is the gay people on a mountain movie. Look, I don't know about you, but I legitimately get a sense of disgust when I see two male characters get physically intimate. It's not an emotional feeling that I control. It's a gut physical reaction. Same thing happens with two girls for me. I don't like it, but I've seen it as an indicator of my own sexuality. If anything I see, or think about causes that feeling, I'll avoid it. I'm perfectly fine watching men be intimate. I'm not gonna use the ol' chestnut "That means you're insecure about your sexuality!!!" because frankly I don't beleive it. If that's how you feel, that's how you feel. I just wanted to point out that if you can get past that there are anime that you might find very enjoyable despite the homoeroticism. |

I just wanted to point out that if you can get past that there are anime that you might find very enjoyable despite the homoeroticism. I've been told the same thing about porn games. "Oh this game is fantastic if you can get past the fact that protagonist rapes a girl in the first 5 minutes of the game. It has amazing art, fantastic gameplay, and manages to make the characters relationships with others pretty interesting since they're both 'alone.'" Funny thing is, these people will say the same thing with shows like Valkyrie Drive. "Oh if you get past the whole sex to transform into weapons to do battle, there's a real dramatic romance and analysis about the concept of general acceptance in there." Like. Step one is "get past" something. I can't do step 1. Not for any other reason besides I feel disgusted with myself attempting to "get past" that something. EDIT: Lol, "insecure about your sexuality?" Do people actually say that? If you can't watch two people kissing and also feel nothing you might be insecure about your sexuality XD. Feeling anything whether negative or positive is indicative of your sexuality... wow. Man. Wish I could bring people into my body for a day so they could get it. |

| @TitanANteus There's no need to get past anything in Valkyrie Drive. Most sex scenes are either filled with uber strong symbolism, or just plain lewd and enjoyable :3. |

I don't think this is about open-mindedness. I think it's just a difference in people. I know it's weird but let's just liken this to fetishes for a second. Some people really like feet. If you ask them... "why do you like feet?" No single word could come out of their mouths that would convince you unless you had the same propensity. That's why it's a fetish. It's a thing that arouses you without you having any idea exactly why. It doesn't make you bad or weird. Now for me, it's the exact opposite. Back to the foot-fetish thing. I'd be the guy who found feet disgusting. You'd ask me why, and if you had the propensity no words I'd say could convince you otherwise. I just don't have what you have. That's why i say it's a physical reaction then an emotional one, because you can bet all of your laundry that I have tried my best to enjoy yuri and shounen-ai and the like. I just can't. |
| A few kisses is fine but i won't be watching if there is alot of gay sex. Game of thrones is as far as i'm willing to go, it had kissing and one or two sex scene, not too graphic though. It really is subjective. Someone might have an easier time with bestiality or guro, while another may think that is harder to watch than gay stuff. It's safe to say if you were straight with an abnormal paraphilia, you would like videos of that thing more than gay content even if most ppl thought your stuff was worse. Need to add that i only don't like it between men, lesbians are fine. |

| If the focus of an anime is romance and it features two males, I can't say I'm too fond of it. I want to at least have some connection or something in a romance, which will only be achieved by having female characters. |
| it's literally a fucking cartoon i'm a gay guy and i watch and read yuri. because i could give a shit less about how another man is going to think of me "Oh wow he's watching a romance between women. Is he straight?" you guys' insecurities are so transparent. there's nothing gayer than being paranoid about how another man will perceive you. |
powerwogMay 12, 2016 6:04 PM
| I like watching slice of life anime and shows that focus on family bonds but why do they have to represent the anime in such a way? I don't hate homosexuals but I have to choose what show I'm watching so that people will not get the wrong ideas. |
 At least justify your opinions instead of just saying "it's my opinion". It would've been more polite. |

| A-are you asking why not everybody likes a particular thing that you like? I'm out this is too deep for me |
 |
| I don't really avoid gay anime necessarily. I don't watch too many of them because they don't tend to interest me, but some of them are pretty good to watch even just as romance anime. |
  |
| I avoid it simply because it has nothing of interest for me. Throw in some other more interesting genres like sci-if, action, or a mystery into a shounen-ai show though and I'd give it a shot. EX: I liked No. 6. |

TitanAnteus said: Lol, "insecure about your sexuality?" Do people actually say that? KingSwisher said: The reason people avoid anime they consider "gay" is because they're afraid of their own sexuality. A lot of men associate their masculinity with their attraction to women, and consider anything gay effeminate. To put it simply, they're afraid they're going to see something they like. ;) I'm fucking dead over here. That's certainly true for some guys, but to say that so absolute is simply asinine. |

| Free isn't gay, it's just the delusional fandom that's shipping the people in that show, turning everyone gay. lmao (I am one of those delusional fans hah) Super Lovers is a gay anime more or less, their relationship is going towards that route, and there's also a "shounen ai" tag lol As a fujoshi, ofc I actually like Yaoi, but there's something about Super Lovers that turns me off. Probably the fake incest part or the child grooming part, it's just weird even if Haru's hot. >__> idk it makes me squeamish .... |

Just compare the dialogues, the plot and the interactions with a true sports anime like Slam Dunk, and you'll see just how gay it is. |
| I hate nice girls. If they so much as say hello, it stays on my mind. If they return texts, my heart races. The day one calls me, I know I'll look at my call history and grin. But that's just them being nice. People who are nice to me are also nice to everyone else. I almost end up forgetting that. If the truth is cruel , then lies must be kind. That's why kindness is a lie. I gave up on always expecting it, always mistaking it, and even hoping for it. Someone who's' worked so hard at being alone doesn't fall for the same trick twice. I'm a veteran at this. I’m the best when it comes to losing. That's why I'll always hate nice girls. |

| Nah I'd watch anything that's good. tragedydesu said: I avoid gay anime like free because I'm straight Is the same reason why I avoid reverse harem and sports anime with a lot of boys Right, that's why straight men don't watch yuri, straight women don't watch yaoi, men don't watch shoujo & josei, women don't watch shounen or seinen... Do you ever contribute to discussions? like ever? EphemeralMoon said: ... What? Why does Yaoi even exist?? Because girls like to fap too.. |
| It's called "Super Lovers" so it's romantic. I watch it and I don't care if a anime is gay or not as long as it's good. |
| Watch what you want, no one is forcing you to watch anything you don't want to. To me, the story is more important than the genre anyway. There is good yaoi/shounen ai and trashy yaoi/shounen ai. The same goes for harems and hetero stuff as well. Honestly if you give up on a show just because a character turns out to be gay than that's a problem with yourself and not the show I'm afraid. |
| NOPE! just a kiss or romantic relationship is a NOPE TO ME!!! I CAN'T HANDLE IT. Either Shoujou-Ai/Gay/or somethin similiar like that is a NOPE TO ME! NO EXCEPTIONS! well, if you want to watch it, just watch it. |

| Why do people think Strike Witches is a "loli ecchi" anime? It doesn't even have fan service, just a few hundred panty shots and bathing scenes of underaged girls. Even if it's a little bit ecchi, can't you look past that and see the deeper themes about Friendship and Fulfillment. But the loli ecchi associations are enough to turn people off. Another example is Kodomo no Jikan, although I haven't seen that one. Do you avoid anime that you consider "loli ecchi"? Do you think that's a justifiable reason to give a show a lower score? >Some people don't like certain genres or themes. It's neither bad or surprising, although giving a low score because it's "gay" is ridiculous. Just ignore it. |
