| Yaoi is better. two man showing feelings and muscles... rawr~ |
| Fuck Yaoi. Fuck yeah Yuri. Well to be honest they both aren't that great. I tolerate some shounen-ai and shoujo-ai but yaoi and yuri is a bit too much for me. |
  |
| Yuri is better then yaoi. In my opinion. |
| I'm a 20-year-old girl. And by "definition" I should have hots for yaoi, but I don't.Yet real gay porn arouse me. So I think I prefer yuri, though still, it isn't high on my list of favourite genre. |

| Yaoi? Eh. Not nauseating anyway. Yuri? Bring it on. All day everyday. |
| Yaoi is ... just not for me. Nothing against gay men, I;m just not interesting in seeing them make out or anything. Yuri, I don't mind it. I'm in favour of it. Shoujo-ai is also nice once in a while and it opens my heart up a bit. |
| I don't mind either. |
| Short answer: They're both hot. Long answer: I prefer yaoi, but I also enjoy yuri. I find same sex relations and interaction exciting and therefore, if I didn't and simply chose one or the other, I'd be a jackass moral myopiac. |
| I like both, but I prefer shounen/shoujo-ai over the stronger stuff. |
| If we're talking about hentai I don't watch any, but if we mean Shounen/Shoujo-ai then I prefer Shoujo-ai. Shounen-ai is okay, but it tends to be really dark and angsty which I don't like as much. Opposite this Shoujo-ai tends to be very cute and fluffy which I love. That and they usually don't peg my sexual taste in men in Shounen-ai, whereas I have a broader palette of women I find attractive. Though I don't watch either out of sexual motivation. |
| I don't mind either. But both can be either dramatic as fuck or boring. Though I like Yaoi more. |

| Do your own thing. Neither appeal to me, and that's about all I can say. |
| yuri most def |
 |
| I am not a fan Yaoi but I am an extreme huge fan of Yuri. I think that girl on girl is cute/hot and it makes me feel happy inside, but unfortunately the isn't an anime with focus on yuri that piqued my interest. That's why I like Strike Witches and Madoka Magica for the yuri undertones. |
| I'm a girl,and I'm more of a shoujo-ai/yuri fan. Don't really care about yaoi. |
| Yuri yay. (one of the greatest things since sliced bread) Yaoi nay. I'm a guy. |
| Yuri for me |
| I don't like yaoi. I'm more into yuri but not the hardcore ones :D |

| I 've seen some yaoi OVA's because it makes me laugh more than your usual comedy, I haven't seen any anime with yuri aspect though. I'm not a big fan of any romance anime, so any romance is kind of turn off for me, since I prefer other genres... whether the main couple is a pair of homosexuals or heterosexuals doesn't really matter to me. |
| The only thing you can rely on is that you can't rely on anything. |
| I'm a straight girl and don't mind either way. I'm more of a yaoi / shounen ai fan though and it's not like I've even read / watched many yuri / shoujo ai manga / anime (actually only 2 manga at the moment) but I'm just slowly getting into these genres. |
Why does the world want to become one? Dreams and ideals are not supposed to be the same. |
| Guess I started watching yaoi because it was something different. I was so tired of normal romance where the girl always had to be saved by the boy and couldn't do anything on her own. In many yaoi stories the couple consists of to independent persons who can do fine on their own, and I guess I kinda liked that better.. |
All3Purple said: Hmmm... I may be weird... To me, yaoi and yuri are both fine. But I'd really love to break the rules and bring a yaoi guy to a yuri girl and watch'em become friends and fall in love. The fact that a Lesbian can only love a girl and a Gay can only love a boy makes Les and Gay falling in love with each other impossible... But I like impossible twists :D :D :D :D What? Are you trying to force people to change sexual orientations for your own amusement? |
| necrothread? well i dont like both, i just ignored it. |
 "If taking responsibility for a mistake that cannot be undone means death, it's not that hard to die. At least, not as hard as to live on." |
| As long as it's within my range of taste. BnP was a disappointment though. |
| I really like Yuri although there seems to be very little of it compared to Yaoi, which is quite sad, because Yaoi is not my thing. |

| Every single series on the planet should have yuri, or subtext at the very least. Yaoi is cool too. Would like to see more yaoi couples/subtext integrated into non-yaoi series. Yuri seems to beat yaoi on this. Now, as for yuri, we need more full blown yuri series without a doubt. |
 |
| I have no strong feelings for either, and I wouldn't watch or read any of them unless it was a minor part of a good, greater story. |
 |
| I'm a straight male, but strangely i'm more attracted to yaoi manga (particularly the josei ones). The intimacy and care in some of the yaoi manga I've read is really moving, and it explores much more intricately how the differences in relationships can be a blessing and a curse at times. They also seem to go a little more deeply into exploring the sexual side of relationships, not just the emotional. The likes of Ten Count, Finder no Hyouteki, and Caste Heaven in particular are pretty engaging and occasionally heart-wrenching. Oh, and for anyone who is going to preach about the superiority of yuri in terms of depth of quiet, subtle emotion should go read Kinou Nani Tabeta right now. |

| Yuri the besto, nothing will ever compare to the love and life that is Yuri. That said, I do have single target sexuality for the following and would allow them to take me as only a seasoned butt pirate could: •Cu Chulainn •Zafira •Cu Chulainn KingYoshi said: Every single series on the planet should have yuri, or subtext at the very least.

| I'm not turned on by either. |

fezakyuu said: Misogynistic fujoshis be like[size=80]I'm 19, a girl, and really only interested in yaoi- purely because I cannot stand female characters- especially those who tend to flaunt themselves for the fans >_> I will admit, I have been intreguied to watch a couple of yuri shows, but only to see what they're like and how it's done, but I've never got round to it, or had the stomach to go through with it xD I don't particularly have a problem with yuri, or people who watch it, I just feel that all the girls in the show will be exactly the same as the ones in ecchi and harem shows. Now yaoi is a defo for me, although I do prefer manga versions because they tend to be a little more graphic and longer than their anime adaptions. |
 |
| I've personally read more yaoi but they aren't as good. Hanagumi Ninkyouden was really good but other than that I haven't read anything special (yeah I'll give Seven Days and Ten Count a chance eventually). I've read less yuri/shoujo-ai but I enjoy them more. Girl Friends, Tetragrammaton Labyrinth, and Strawberry Panic! (The original light novel, not the anime) all got high scores from me. Haven't seen any yuri (except for scenes in a hentai I was watching) and I tried watching Junjou Romantica about 3-4 years ago, barely got through episode 1, last year watched episode two and haven't touched it since. No. 6 was a really good show though. |
|
| I love Yuri. I hate Yaoi. That's about it. |
 |
oktavia-12 said: No. 6 was a really good show though. Agreed. No.6 doesn't get enough love. That is the kind of yaoi/yaoi-subtext that should be more commonplace in anime. Yuri has so many more subtexty shows. Though, I'm not complaining as yuri is my jam. :) |

I don't think subtext is bad though. For a series that the focus isn't on romance or romantic relationships, subtext is great. |

Yeah, I don't use those nonsense terms (shounen-ai, shoujo-ai). Yuri = girl on girl relations, Yaoi = guy on guy relations as far as I'm concerned. Besides, I don't even think Japan uses them. Pretty sure they just use Yuri, Yaoi, and BL (could be wrong). |
|
| I like both yaoi and yuri. (Shounen ai and shoujo ai, too, clearly.) I dunno if there's any real reason for it, it's just mixing up the genders a little. |
 |
| I prefer yaoi to yuri, but love is love and my opinion, and it is all cute and fun to read :D |
| Don't see the point as I'm not gay |
 Anime is good, fucking deal with it. |
