You realize that what you just said is far ruder then anything I've ever said to ANY yaoi fan/artist?

Think before you randomly say something like that.

I Hate the art/concept, etc and I by FAR have my reasons for that. So instead of repeating 'I hate/dislike/don't like Yaoi/yuri again and again to people who ask, etc - I just put it in my sig and people back off and leave me alone.... most of the time. @o@

No one can love EVERYTHING - people hate things I love too, but I RESPECT their opinions and don't say rude things to them about it.

and before you think that I'm bashed gays or something - once again, THINK before you say something and ask before you assume. I have gays friends and know others who are gay and respect them - though I'm not very comfortable with the subject - I still RESPECT others for it.

Which you clearly have not towards me.

Please respect others opinions and think/ask before you comment - or you might just come off as extremely rude (...kinda like you just did T.T )

Thank you, and have a nice day ^-^

Having "I HATE YAOI/YURI" in your /tagline/ doesn't seem like you "respect" gays. If you really did, YOU would keep your mouth shut about it.

Have a lovely day yourself.

While you're being sarcastic - I was being serious when I said 'have a nice day' to him/her because I don't like to fight about something so stupid - and being immature about it doesn't help, btw.

I don't see many yaoi fans being 'respectful' in what they said and do everyday regarding to the subject - especially to people like me who hate it.

This is the first time in months that anyone has said anything to me (good or bad) about my sig, so I gave him/her some respect and actually responded politely, instead of ignoring it, which I usually would have.

People have different opinions, that's life. Deal with it.

I deal with it everyday - and on the internet it's both harder and easier to do so as well - for instance, on the internet, I see yaoi/yuri EVERYWHERE I go when I'm looking for anything game/book/anime, etc related, so there's more OF it around - however, being the internet, I can simplely hit 'back' or scroll away from something I don't like - which is what I'll ask you to please do.

I do that EVERY day with pictures, etc on DA and other peoples sigs that bother ME - and so do MOST of the DA population, I really can't see why that's so hard.... o.o

As for my sig - It's refering to an ART FORM/ GENRE - not pertaining to REAL LIFE people at ALL. ...MOST people get that... but apparently some don't -.-0

Quite frankly I could have put a LOT worst in my sig dealing with it, but I chose not to because it would have been rude - this is just my opinion that I put in there for a reason, that being if you actually READ my comment above) " instead of repeating 'I hate/dislike/don't like Yaoi/yuri again and again to people who ask, etc - I just put it in my sig and people back off and leave me alone."

...and for your information, it's made my life SO much easier ^-^ Hence why it's there.

Now I'm sorry if you took offence to this, I'm REALLY not trying to be rude, sound mean, etc But please understand that my signature can have what I want to have in it - and in my case, I chose my opinion on an ART FORM that I can't stand, to prevent arguements with those asking me directly if I like the genre or not - since it's already answered for them. (and btw, before I put up that sig, I have like, 1-2 people every DAY ask me SOMETHING about yaoi or yuri - which is when I got fed up and put up my sig)

Now, being SERIOUS... - Have a nice day. ^-^

Point taken that different people have different opinions. I'm perfectly confident in my maturity --- just because I'm offended by your sig does not mean that I am immature. That's capital to saying anyone who doesn't agree with you is childish... not the best route to go, if you're trying to convince everyone to be peaceful.

I can't understand why it would bother you so much when people simply ASK you about yaoi/yuri. You could simply tell them "my favorite pairings are someguy/somegirl, and otherguy/othergirl"... generally, people will get the hint that if you enjoy straight pairings, yaoi/yuri pairings are not your cup of tea. Simple as that, no hate words involved.

It it hard to be "respectful" to people like you who say "I hate yaoi/yuri!" since what you're saying is... you hate the idea of two people in love, just because they happen to be the same gender. I myself dislike the yaoi/yuri culture, simply because I've gotten too old to really enjoy discussing gay sex with high schoolers --- however, all my favorite pairings tend to be male/male. If your problem is with the culture of paddle-wacking, squealing, shallow fangirls/fanboys, you should clarify that.

It seems impossible to me that you could be perfectly accepting of gays "in real life", and have such a definitive problem with yaoi/yuri that you feel the need to ANNOUNCE IT everytime you make a comment on dA. You certainly can have anything you like on your sig, and feel free to keep it... however, just be aware that it makes you sound like a stereotypical bigot. I deal with straight people who say they "hate gays/lesbians/yaoi/yuri" everyday, just like you deal with yaoi/yuri -- except that I'm on the defending side. You may not mean anything by it, but it hurts when people say that loving someone is something that can be categorized, objectified, and even outright hated everyday.

Just think about it.

Here, read this is you have time: ~~~> [link]

That person used to be a yaoi fan and is like you in the sense that she's not against gays, etc at all, seeing as she defends them too - Yet she hates yaoi too - and after become friends with her, it turns out she hates it as much as I do - and that link I send you pretty much sums up the way I feel about it as well.

MOST people seem to get the fact that I hate a GENRE dealing with couples in anime/games, etc - which is WHAT YAOI/YURI IS. -.-0 I'm sorry - but It's just frusterating when the handful of people who don't get that attack me on it - even WHEN I'm being nice, polite, etc and explaining the situation to them.

And I think you missed my point - I was getting tired and saying the SAME things OVER and OVER, EVERYday - and then having then suddenly get mad and attack me for no reason other then the fact that I said 'I don't like Yaoi/yuri' - This sig of mine has actually STOPPED most fights over such a stupid thing, Thus I'll forever keep it to make my life better - and I'll also point out that you don't HAVE to read my sig - you're choosing to be offended by it because you choose to read it.

That's like me reading a yaoi fanfiction by mistake, but realizing the pairings till later on in the story, since they Weren't pointing out in the description - I'm upset by it, but then I think "hey, it's my own fault for picking this and reading it - not theirs" , etc - I have never once flamed someone for posting anything to do with the subject - because it's their choice to do that and it's what they like, so I RESPECT that.

I just want the same thing in return.

I'll also point out that I see stuff like: 'I love yaoi' or 'Yaoi is my anti-drug' , etc, etc everywhere, and since I can't STAND it - It's upsetting for ME to see that - so try thinking of things both ways if you want to be so open minded about it. I simplely put MY opinion on the SAME subject that they do - just the opposite version.

And one last thing I want to point out - and if you read the link I sent you, it gets explained in much better detail:

90% (or more) of Yaoi pairings that fans come up with are with perfectly STRAIGHT characters - and are thus false and have NOTHING to do with love, seeing as you are taking to characters completely out of character to make a stupid pairing that is FALSE

...End of story, sorry - but countless people agree with me (even some yaoi fans themselves ) That the pairings are stupid and don't have a good enough background for it to EVER make sense - thus, there is no real 'love' anywhere in it. So...actually, I'm NOT bashing anyone who's in 'love' - seeing as the pairings are 100% false to begin with.

....and as you most likely noticed - THAT'S the main reason why I hate it so much - another happens to be fans, etc who tell me I CAN'T hate yaoi or say so in my sig, because it's my opinion - those are the main reasons I'll always hate yaoi/yuri and some of the main reasons why my sig exists in the first place.
