This is for most of you fangirls....

Or maybe I was (wrongly) relying on my history of barging into yaoi threads with J-0080 and providing comic relief,

Why else would you do that except to ridicule people? Why do the threads need "comic relief"? I don't particularly care for fanservice anime, but I don't barge going DUR HUR UR ALL PERVERTZ DIE LOL OMG. If I did I would be rightly called a flamer.

People have different tastes than you. This does not make them bad people. I wish you'd leave them alone.

[SarahtheBoring]

barge = I meant "barge into those threads."

I've noticed J-0080 ridiculing shounen-ai/yaoi fans before and it irritated me then, too. Why can't you just leave them alone? They're not doing you any harm. If your poor masculinity is so threatened then that's your problem not theirs. God, grow up.

He apologized...can't we let it rest? It's discussions like these that evolve into huge arguments that get these threads locked.

Oh for crying out loud!

Really, how much more misinterpreted can I get?

To clarify: You're flipping everything upside down. I use humor and self-ridicule (as opposed to ridiculing the fans of yaoi, which it seems you see this as, and wrongly so) - at worst, a 'yaoi' picture that messes up the implied context - to make the fans of yaoi feel better, not worse.

As for the first post, if you still don't get the intention, let me interpret it for you:

"Not only is girls going crazy over attractive-looking guys not wrong or disgusting or bad in any way, but boy - wouldn't it be screwed up if it were otherwise, if they stopped being attracted to men. Yep, then we guys would be in trouble..."

***

I'm not a basher, a flamer, a homophobe, or anything like that. I'm not a yaoi fan by a long shot, but I sympathise with them just as much as I do with my fanservice-loving male kind. I have as much right as you to come to forum threads and give remarks that are as humorous, strange or encouraging as I like. But I'd prefer not to be taken as wrongly as to have my intentions interpreted in an inverse fashion.

Quit putting words in my mouth, and lighten up already

[SarahtheBoring]

Okay, so I get to come in all your fanservice threads, act like a dick, and then accuse YOU of "interpreting me wrong," because OBVIOUSLY my burning hatred of all of you ("I'm not a yaoi fan by a long shot") makes my abuse of others all okay.

Except I won't do that because I'm not that kind of asshole.

Idiot. I keep forgetting to remind myself that the General Anime forum is full of fucktards.

NTS: The GA forum is full of fucktards. Don't go there.

[Otohiko]

Fine. I tried to be reasonable and honest; and for that, I get called an asshole. I see the logic. Much appreciated.

But I'll leave it to others to decide who's being unreasonable or hateful here.

One note: "I'm not a yaoi fan by a long shot". Scorching hatred! A blaze of contempt! Tomorrow I'll disclose the fact that I hold no real interest in Fantasy as a genre of fiction and be called a troll, and not the forest-dwelling kind! And the next day, I'll admit that I really happen to be annoyed by modern R&B music, only to be proclaimed a racist. And the admission that I don't enjoy whale-watching will have me forever stamped as a flamboyant but witless dandy!

NTS: Never, ever try to not lie about your preferences. Also, start exercising deceit in order to convince others you LOVE whale watching - so as to avoid the scorn of the next Great Perceiver!

Okay, just drop it already. The thread hasn't been locked yet, why not try to keep it that way?

I took it for a joke and a play on the hypocracy practiced by *real* flamers, someone else took it for an insult. Fine. Who cares?

I'm glad yaoi manga is being licensed, but I really wish they'd bring out more anime titles. I've been dying to get my hands on Kasho no Tsuki, definitely a beautiful shonen ai anime that I think should have been licensed long before Boku no Sexual Harrassment. And come to that - how could they license that anime and not bring over Ai no Kusabi? We get the hardcore without the fluff to go with it. So not fair...

[ryuu_hime13]

All in good time, I'm sure.

I can wait patiently.

Okay, not really.

I hope they release those titles soon. By the way, Arigatomyna, do you know where I can find Boku wa Sexual Harassment? I sincerely doubt Best Buy stocks it. Also, it isn't one of those 18+ things you need an ID to buy, is it? 'Cause if it is, I'm screwed.

I saw 'My Sexual Harrassment' at Best Buy. That's the new title, and yes, it's a hardcore anime you have to be 18 to watch - it's the one with the semi-infamous corncob, it's *definitely* not for children. I don't think it was a bad price (meaning it was probably $24-30), but I don't really like the animation style enough to buy it right now. I'm waiting for the price to drop some.

Now, I could have been mistaken and seen it at Comic Quest instead of Best Buy, but I *really* think it was Best Buy. That's in Evansville, so if you live near a big city, they probably have it. If not, maybe you can request that they get it for you (what one has, any should be able to stock).

[ryuu_hime13]

There's always Amazon.com.

Kashou no Tsuki and Sanctus...I'd definitely love to see THOSE released here...KnT seems a lot more likely, though. Sanctus is probably too old.
